Auto-Updater (Gateway Cron)

Create a reliable daily auto-update routine for ClawHub skills using OpenClaw Gateway Cron scheduler.

Use when: Setting up "run updates at 04:00" jobs, rotating update reports, running npx clawhub update --all, and sending update summaries to Feishu/Telegram.

Quick setup checklist

Prerequisites

  • ✅ OpenClaw Gateway running
  • ✅ ClawHub CLI installed (npx clawhub)
  • ✅ Logged into ClawHub: npx clawhub login

Create cron job

openclaw cron add \
  --name "Daily auto-update (ClawHub skills)" \
  --cron "0 4 * * *" \
  --tz "Asia/Shanghai" \
  --session isolated \
  --wake now \
  --deliver \
  --channel feishu \
  --to "ou_xxxxxxxxxxxx" \
  --message "执行 npx clawhub update --all，更新所有 ClawHub 技能，发送更新报告（包含更新前后版本对比）"

What the job should do (workflow)

Within the cron run:

1️⃣ Capture "before" state

npx clawhub list
  • List all installed skills with versions
  • Save for comparison

2️⃣ Execute update

npx clawhub update --all
  • Update all installed ClawHub skills
  • Skip Clawdbot本体 (not managed by clawhub)

3️⃣ Capture "after" state

npx clawhub list
  • List all skills with new versions
  • Compare with "before" state

4️⃣ Generate summary report

  • Report any errors

Configuration options

Schedule

Field Value Description
Time 0 4 * * * Daily at 04:00
Timezone Asia/Shanghai Adjust to your timezone
Session isolated Don't pollute main session

Delivery

Channel Config
Feishu --channel feishu --to "ou_xxx"
Telegram --channel telegram --to "123456789"

Management commands

View cron job

openclaw cron list

Run manually (test)

openclaw cron run \x3Cjob-id>

Disable job

openclaw cron disable \x3Cjob-id>

Enable job

openclaw cron enable \x3Cjob-id>

Remove job

openclaw cron rm \x3Cjob-id>

Notes / gotchas

  • Timezone field: Use IANA timezone (e.g., Asia/Shanghai)
  • Delivery: Prefer explicit channel + to so the job always reaches you
  • Clawdbot self-update: NOT included (skills only)
  • First run: Test manually before scheduling

Troubleshooting

clawhub update says "Not logged in"

npx clawhub login

Job doesn't run

  • Confirm Gateway is running
  • Check cron is enabled: openclaw cron list

Nothing updates

  • That's normal if all skills are up-to-date
  • Still sends a "no changes" report

Permission denied

  • Check user has ClawHub login
  • Verify token is valid: npx clawhub whoami

Usage Guidance
This skill does what it says (schedule daily ClawHub updates and send a report), but before installing you should: 1) confirm how ClawHub authentication is provided (the cron job will need a logged-in session or tokens) and limit that account's privileges; 2) verify Feishu/Telegram delivery configuration and tokens are scoped appropriately; 3) be aware that `npx clawhub update --all` will automatically install updates for other skills (which can change behavior or introduce new code), so consider testing with `openclaw cron run` manually first and/or pinning critical skills or using selective updates rather than `--all`; 4) review update logs and enable notifications for any unexpected changes; 5) if you need stricter control, avoid autonomous scheduling or require a manual approval step for updates.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: auto-updater-gateway-cron Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is a documentation-based 'recipe' designed to help an AI agent or user set up a daily auto-update routine for ClawHub skills. It utilizes standard platform commands like `npx clawhub update --all` and `openclaw cron add` to schedule tasks and generate version reports. No malicious code, hidden execution, or data exfiltration attempts were found; the instructions in SKILL.md and README.md are transparent and align perfectly with the stated administrative purpose.
Capability Assessment
ℹ Purpose & Capability
Name/description, README, and SKILL.md all describe scheduling daily ClawHub skill updates and sending reports; the required actions (openclaw cron add, npx clawhub list/update) are coherent with that purpose. Minor mismatch: the skill declares no required env vars/credentials even though the workflow implicitly requires a logged-in ClawHub session and configured delivery channels (Feishu/Telegram).
✓ Instruction Scope
SKILL.md only instructs running gateway cron commands and clawhub CLI commands (list, update, whoami, login) and producing/sending a report. It does not instruct reading unrelated system files or exfiltrating data to unknown endpoints. The scope is limited to scheduling, running updates, comparing versions, and delivering a report.
✓ Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files to execute. package.json and README are present but no runtime install steps are requested by the registry metadata—lowest install risk.
⚠ Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, but its workflow requires ClawHub authentication (npx clawhub login / whoami) and configured delivery credentials for Feishu/Telegram via the Gateway. Those credentials are not declared, which is an omission: users must ensure appropriate tokens/sessions exist and understand the privilege being granted (the job will run updates that can install/replace skills).
ℹ Persistence & Privilege
always is false and agent autonomous invocation is allowed (default). That is normal, but because the job runs `npx clawhub update --all` it can modify other installed skills automatically—this widens blast radius if updates introduce changes. No evidence the skill attempts to persist beyond its cron job or modify other skills' configs directly.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install auto-updater-gateway-cron
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /auto-updater-gateway-cron
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
