OpenClaw is an AI assistant that runs on a user's own devices and connects to chat services such as Discord, Slack, Telegram, and WhatsApp. Individuals or teams use it for assistant tasks while keeping its state, memory, and credentials on their hardware and choosing the models or agent harnesses it uses. The catalogue entries are skills, agents, instructions, hooks, and settings that define or extend OpenClaw's workflow.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00017 | $0.00983 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00393 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00197 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00098 |
Grade A, and why
tavily scanned grade A with 0 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 1mo 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

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.
