创建您自己的技能

Sometimes no existing skill matches your task. That is when you create your own to teach the assistant something new. ✨

OpenClaw can identify a gap in its abilities, noticing when a request needs a capability it does not yet have.

Once a gap is found, the assistant can help you author the new skill, turning the missing ability into a real workflow.

Begin by describing the task you want done. A clear goal helps shape what the skill should actually accomplish.

Your new skill is really a workflow, the steps the assistant follows to carry the task from request to result.

A custom skill can rely on the assistant's tool use, so it acts on your files, shell, or browser as the workflow needs.

Your skill can draw on persistent memory, reusing context from earlier sessions instead of starting from zero each time.

Skills you build stay local-first, authored and run on your own hardware so you keep full control of what they do. 🔒

Try your skill by messaging from a connected channel like WhatsApp, the fastest way to confirm it behaves as you expect.

If the result is not quite right, refine the steps. Skills are meant to be shaped until the workflow does just what you want.

When your skill works well, you can share it on ClawHub so the wider OpenClaw community can use it too. 🤝

Let us confirm how new skills get made.
