skill-claw

skill-claw is a skill for Claude Code from CES-Ltd/Lumi. It costs 83 tokens per session (2,880 once invoked), scanned F, a copy of skill-claw, MIT.

An administration guide for managing OpenClaw installations across macOS, Linux, Docker, OCI, and Proxmox.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to install, update, monitor, secure, back up, or troubleshoot OpenClaw, including its gateway, channels, scheduler, plugins, MCP servers, and Tailscale setup.
Why use it?
It provides a sequence for checking the platform, diagnosing the current state, making changes, and verifying the result instead of assuming how OpenClaw is hosted.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade F, and why

skill-claw scanned grade F with 4 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

The Iron Law

DETECT PLATFORM FIRST. DIAGNOSE BEFORE CHANGING. VERIFY AFTER EVERY ACTION.

Never assume the OS or hosting environment. Never make changes without checking current state. Never claim success without verification.


When to Use

Use this skill for:

  • Installing, updating, or migrating OpenClaw instances
  • Gateway lifecycle management (start, stop, restart, health checks)
  • Host-level administration (packages, services, firewall, users, disks)
  • Security hardening and audits
  • Monitoring setup and troubleshooting
  • Backup and disaster recovery
  • Platform-specific configuration (macOS, Ubuntu/Debian, Docker, OCI, Proxmox)
  • Channel configuration (WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal)
  • Tailscale setup and management (Serve, Funnel, SSH, ACLs)
  • gogcli (Google Workspace CLI) setup and troubleshooting
  • OpenClaw scheduler, memory, plugins, and MCP server management

Do NOT use for:

  • Writing OpenClaw extensions or plugins (use plugin-dev skills)
  • Designing cloud architecture from scratch (use cloud-architect persona)
  • Application-level code debugging (use /octo:debug)

The Process

Phase 1: Detect Platform

You MUST detect the platform before running any administrative commands.

# Detect OS
uname -s  # Darwin = macOS, Linux = Ubuntu/Debian/Proxmox host

# If Linux, detect distro
cat /etc/os-release 2>/dev/null | head -5

# Check if inside Docker
[ -f /.dockerenv ] && echo "Docker container" || echo "Not Docker"

# Check if on Proxmox host
command -v pveversion &>/dev/null && pveversion 2>/dev/null

# Check if inside Proxmox LXC
[ -f /proc/1/environ ] && grep -q container=lxc /proc/1/environ 2>/dev/null && echo "Proxmox LXC"

# Check for OCI metadata
curl -s -m 2 http://169.254.169.254/opc/v2/instance/ -H "Authorization: Bearer Oracle" 2>/dev/null | head -5

Set the platform context before proceeding:

  • macOS: Homebrew, launchd, Application Firewall, APFS
  • Ubuntu/Debian: apt, systemd, ufw, ext4/ZFS
  • Docker: docker compose, container logs, volume management
  • OCI: ARM architecture, VCN security, Tailscale, systemd
  • Proxmox: qm/pct, vzdump, ZFS, LXC bind mounts

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

skill-claw is a skill published in the GitHub repository CES-Ltd/Lumi (31 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 83 tokens to every session and 2,880 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it F with 4 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, cloud metadata endpoint). It is 89% identical to skill-claw, differing in 39 lines, and is treated as a copy.
