About OpenClaw

OpenClaw is a free, open-source personal AI agent that runs locally and connects an external large language model to your terminal, files, browser and messaging apps. It launched in November 2025 (previously named Clawdbot, then Moltbot) and became one of the most-starred agent repositories of the period.

Maintained by Peter Steinberger and the OpenClaw community.

How skills work

An OpenClaw skill is a directory containing a SKILL.md file: Markdown with YAML frontmatter. At startup OpenClaw scans the eligible skill directories and injects a compressed description of each skill into its system prompt, so the agent knows what it can do and invokes a skill when a request matches.

Security model

Since February 2026 ClawHub screens submitted skills with VirusTotal: each bundle is hashed and looked up, new bundles are scanned with Code Insight, and results drive an approve, warn or block decision with daily re-scanning. This materially reduces supply-chain risk but does not eliminate it, and independent research has found that different scanners frequently disagree about the same skill. Read the SKILL.md of anything you install, especially if it requests shell access or credentials.
