Annolid Bot ClawHub Skills Tutorial

This tutorial shows how to search and install agent skills from ClawHub in Annolid.

1. Prerequisites

No Node.js or npm packages are required. Annolid uses Python HTTP APIs to search/download skills from ClawHub.

2. Open Annolid Bot

  1. Start Annolid.

  2. Open AI & Models → Annolid Bot…

  3. Pick your chat provider/model as usual.

3. Search for skills (natural language)

In Annolid Bot, ask:

  • Search ClawHub skills for behavior analysis

  • Find ClawHub skills for web scraping

  • Find skills on ClawHub for PDF summarization

Annolid Bot will call the clawhub_search_skills tool and return results.

4. Install a skill by slug

After you identify a skill slug, ask:

  • Install skill <slug> from ClawHub

Example:

  • Install skill weather-pro from ClawHub

Annolid will call clawhub_install_skill and install into your Annolid agent workspace skills/ directory.

5. Restart behavior

After installing a new skill, start a new Annolid Bot session so the newly installed skill instructions are loaded into context.

6. Troubleshooting

  • ClawHub CLI is not available

    • Not applicable in current implementation (no CLI dependency).

    • If search/install fails, check internet access and firewall/proxy settings.

  • Invalid skill slug format

    • Use the exact slug from search results (letters/numbers/-/_/.).

  • ClawHub command timed out

    • Retry and check internet connection.

7. What tools are used

This feature is powered by core agent tools:

  • clawhub_search_skills(query, limit?)

  • clawhub_install_skill(slug)

These are core tools (not GUI-only wrappers), so the feature is available in agent tool workflows beyond the UI layer.
