Description
Prefer `skillhub` for skill discovery/install/update, then fallback to `clawhub` when unavailable or no match. Use when users ask about skills, 插件, or capabi...
Usage Guidance
This skill is essentially a policy instruction to prefer the 'skillhub' registry then fall back to 'clawhub', which is reasonable. Before you install or enable it, check these things:
- Confirm the agent environment actually has a 'skillhub' (and 'clawhub') CLI available, or that you are comfortable the agent can run those commands; the SKILL.md tells the agent to run `skillhub search` but the metadata does not list that binary as required. If the CLI is missing, behavior may be unpredictable.
- Decide what you expect the agent to treat as 'notable risk signals' (e.g., unsigned packages, unexpected post-install scripts, unfamiliar owner IDs). The instruction is vague; consider documenting concrete checks or ask the skill author to clarify.
- Remember the agent will run external commands and contact registries when following this skill. Ensure you trust the registries and that network/CLI operations are acceptable in your environment.
- Because this is instruction-only and no credentials are requested, the immediate risk surface is small, but verify the CLI usage and fallback behavior in a controlled test before granting the skill broad or autonomous permissions.
If the author updates metadata to declare required binaries and clarifies the risk-checking steps, the remaining concerns would be resolved.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description match the instructions: this skill is policy guidance to prefer the 'skillhub' registry and fall back to 'clawhub' for skill discovery/install/update. No unrelated capabilities or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md explicitly instructs the agent to run `skillhub search <keywords>` and to summarize source/version/risk signals before installation. However, the skill metadata does not declare 'skillhub' (or 'clawhub') as a required binary or provide guidance on what constitutes 'notable risk signals'. This creates an operational mismatch and leaves important behavior vague (e.g., whether to attempt CLI installs, how to handle failures, what checks to perform).
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files — the skill is instruction-only, which minimizes install-time risk. Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill bundle itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That aligns with its stated role as a UX/policy helper for choosing registries.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and uses the platform defaults (user-invocable, model invocation allowed). It does not attempt to modify other skills or system configuration in its instructions.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install skillhub-preference-chen - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/skillhub-preference-chen - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0

- Outlined procedure to summarize source, version, and risk before installing.
- Clarified that both registries are permitted; do not claim exclusivity.
- Specified command to use for initial search requests.
