Searching & Installing Skills
Always use the search_skills tool. Do NOT manually curl, browse GitHub, or download SKILL.md files.
search_skills does everything automatically:
- Local — checks installed skills first
- Official — searches Starchild official-skills index
- skills.sh — searches the global skills ecosystem (OpenClaw, Vercel, Anthropic, etc.)
- Auto-install — installs the best match via
npx skills add(default:auto_install=true)
Usage
search_skills(query="deploy") # search + auto-install best match
search_skills(query="trading") # search + auto-install
search_skills(query="k8s", auto_install=false) # search only, don't install
search_skills() # list all installed skills
After search_skills installs a skill, it's immediately available. Call skill_refresh() only if you manually edited skill files.
What NOT to do
- Do NOT
curlGitHub repos to browse/download skills - Do NOT
mkdir -p skills/<name>and manually write SKILL.md - Do NOT use
web_fetchto download skill files - Do NOT use the old gateway search/install endpoints (they no longer exist)
- Do NOT publish skills to the community-skills registry (product offline)

→ NEVER curl GitHub or manually download files
User wants to list installed skills
→ Use search_skills() with no query
User wants to create a new skill
→ Read the skill-creator skill first
User wants to publish a skill to community registry
→ Community Skill product is offline — do not publish
