Description
Choose the best OpenClaw skill by matching trigger keywords to the TOOLS.md index, then applying strict judgment rules (most specific first; if in doubt, use...
Usage Guidance
This skill is a lightweight decision framework and appears coherent. Before installing, ensure you maintain a correct TOOLS.md index and keep SKILL.md files free of sensitive information. Pay attention to the 'if in doubt, use it' fallback — it can cause the orchestrator to call a candidate skill even when fit is uncertain, so make triggers specific and consider adding an explicit verification step before invoking skills that have broad access or require credentials. If you rely on automation, test the index in a safe environment to confirm the selection heuristics behave as you expect.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: skill-invocation
Version: 1.0.0
The bundle defines a meta-skill for orchestration, providing instructions for an AI agent to select and invoke other skills using a local index file (TOOLS.md). It contains no executable code, network requests, or instructions to access sensitive data, and its logic is focused on improving skill selection accuracy within the OpenClaw environment (SKILL.md).
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description matches its behavior: it is a decision framework that reads an index (TOOLS.md) and candidate SKILL.md files to pick skills. It does not request unrelated binaries, env vars, or installs.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions require reading TOOLS.md and candidate SKILL.md files from the workspace and applying matching heuristics. This is coherent for a selector framework. Note: the fallback rule 'if in doubt, use it' can cause the orchestrator to invoke a candidate skill even when fit is uncertain, which could lead to unintended invocation of other skills (especially ones with broader privileges) if the index or triggers are imprecise.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only. This minimizes disk writes and executable installs and is appropriate for the described purpose.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths; the SKILL.md does not ask for secrets. Reading SKILL.md/TOOLS.md is proportional to the stated function.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and autonomous invocation is allowed by default (normal). The skill does not request persistent presence or modification of other skills/configs.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install skill-invocation - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/skill-invocation - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
Skill Invocation System 1.0.0 – initial release.
- Introduces a framework for selecting and invoking the best OpenClaw skill by matching user requests to trigger keywords in the TOOLS.md index.
- Implements clear decision rules: most specific trigger match wins; fall back to SKILL.md, and "if in doubt, use it".
- Requires a TOOLS.md file with consistent skill identifiers and trigger keywords for proper operation.
- Recommends standardized decision outputs (selected skills, reason, next action) to aid orchestration.
- Provides guidelines for multi-step skill combinations and index maintenance for reliability.
