Skills are modular packages that extend nanobot’s capabilities by providing specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools. Think of them as “onboarding guides” for specific domains or tasks.

​
What Skills Provide

  1. Specialized workflows - Multi-step procedures for specific domains
  2. Tool integrations - Instructions for working with specific file formats or APIs
  3. Domain expertise - Company-specific knowledge, schemas, business logic
  4. Bundled resources - Scripts, references, and assets for complex tasks

​
Built-in Skills

Nanobot includes several built-in skills:
SkillDescription
githubInteract with GitHub using the gh CLI
weatherGet weather info using wttr.in and Open-Meteo
summarizeSummarize URLs, files, and YouTube videos
tmuxRemote-control tmux sessions
clawhubSearch and install skills from ClawHub registry
memoryTwo-layer memory system with grep-based recall
cronSchedule reminders and recurring tasks

​
Skill Format

Each skill is a directory containing a SKILL.md file with:
  • YAML frontmatter (name, description, metadata)
  • Markdown instructions for the agent
Optional bundled resources:
  • scripts/ - Executable code (Python/Bash/etc.)
  • references/ - Documentation loaded as needed
  • assets/ - Files used in output (templates, icons, etc.)

​
Using Skills

Skills are automatically loaded and triggered based on user requests. The agent matches your request against skill descriptions to determine when to use each skill. For example, asking “What’s the weather in London?” will automatically trigger the weather skill.

​
Installing Skills

Use the ClawHub skill to discover and install community skills: 
npx --yes clawhub@latest search "web scraping"
npx --yes clawhub@latest install <slug> --workdir ~/.nanobot/workspace

​
Creating Skills

Attribution

These skills are adapted from OpenClaw’s skill system. The skill format and metadata structure follow OpenClaw’s conventions to maintain compatibility.
