Install in OpenClaw
/install github-repos
Description
Work with GitHub repositories, issues, pull requests, commits, branches, releases, and workflows via the GitHub REST and GraphQL APIs. Use this skill when us...
Usage Guidance
Before installing, verify you trust the ClawLink plugin and only grant the GitHub repository permissions you need. Review any preview carefully before approving write, delete, workflow, or deployment actions, and revoke the GitHub connection or remove the plugin if you stop using it.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
The skill uses ClawLink and GitHub APIs rather than broad local file access, and access is described as limited to the connected GitHub account and granted permissions.
Install Mechanism
The install flow adds the ClawLink plugin to allowed OpenClaw tools and restarts the gateway; this is disclosed and purpose-aligned, though the plugin reference is unpinned and no checksum is provided.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions emphasize live tool discovery, describing unfamiliar tools, previewing writes, and getting explicit user confirmation before create, update, delete, workflow, or deployment actions.
Persistence & Privilege
The OpenClaw tool allowlist change persists after setup, but it is visible in the documented install and troubleshooting steps and no hidden persistence or backdoor behavior appears in the artifact.
Purpose & Capability
The GitHub repository, issue, pull request, workflow, and release capabilities match the stated purpose; write and destructive operations are high-impact but disclosed.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install github-repos - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/github-repos - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
