How to Install Skills for OpenClaw
OpenClaw can use the same shared install flow so teams keep one skill distribution model across tools.
Install any skill with /learn
/learn @owner/skill-name
Install the /learn Command
The fastest path is to clone the learn skill into the local skills directory, then call it directly in session.
git clone https://github.com/findskilltop/learn.git ~/.openclaw/skills/learn
/learn seo
/learn @anthropics/frontend-designManual Installation
- Confirm the skill's Quality / Security on findskill.top.
- Download the skill or open the source tree.
- Extract it into ~/.openclaw/skills/[skill-name].
How OpenClaw Uses Skills
- Task-specific workflows: review, testing, deployment, and documentation.
- Team conventions: coding standards, release checks, and quality gates.
- Domain skills: SEO, frontend design, database optimization, and research analysis.

Troubleshooting
- If the platform does not re-index skills, confirm the directory path and restart the client.
- If prompts still look stale, remove the older directory and install again.
- If team environments drift, check whether the local mirror and webhook sync are aligned.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions: Can I keep Codex-style workflows portable?
Yes. Keep triggers, paths, and dependencies explicit in SKILL.md and the same workflow stays portable across coding agents.
Frequently asked questions: When should I prefer manual installation?
Prefer manual installation when you need stricter human review, offline mirrors, or internal source audits.
