Skill Creator Assistant#

A guided conversation-based tool that helps non-technical users create their own OpenClaw skills through a step-by-step questionnaire. No coding required.

How It Works#

1. User describes what they want the skill to do
2. Assistant asks 5-8 targeted questions
3. Assistant generates a complete, ready-to-use SKILL.md
4. Optionally: generates README, uploads to GitHub/ClawHub

The Conversation Flow#

Step 1: Core Identity#

• Skill name (what to call it)
• One-line description
• When/why someone would trigger this skill

Step 2: Capabilities#

• What exactly can this skill do? (checklist of 1-5 abilities)
• What input does it need from the user?
• What output does it produce?

Step 3: Use Cases#

• 1-2 concrete examples of when to use this skill
• Who is the target user?

Step 4: Templates#

Assistant recommends one of:

• Research型 — data analysis, report generation
• Creation型 — writing, design, content production
• Collection型 — monitoring, search, intelligence gathering
• Utility型 — file conversion, formatting, automation
• Custom — mixed or unique requirements

Step 5: Output Format#

• File format (markdown, docx, pdf, etc.)
• Any required structure/headings
• Naming conventions

Step 6: Limitations#

• What should it NOT do?
• Known constraints or dependencies
• Required packages/APIs

Generated SKILL.md Structure#

Templates#

The assistant has 5 built-in templates:

Research Template#

Focused on: data gathering, analysis, reporting

• Structured report format
• Source verification
• Citation tracking

Creation Template#

Focused on: writing, design, content

• Draft → refine → deliver workflow
• Format-aware output (HTML/DOCX/JSON)
• Iteration support

Collection Template#

Focused on: monitoring, search, alerts

• Periodic check workflow
• Threshold alerts
• Multi-source aggregation

Utility Template#

Focused on: conversion, processing, automation

• File format handling
• Batch processing
• Error handling

Custom Template#

Flexible structure based on user's specific needs

Quality Checklist#

Before finalizing, verify:

• Name is unique and descriptive
• Description is clear in 1-2 sentences
• All capabilities have concrete examples
• No circular logic or infinite loops
• Dependencies are available/installable
• File format is correct (.md)
• Ready for GitHub/ClawHub upload

GitHub Upload#

After generating the SKILL.md, offer to:

1. Create a GitHub repo
2. Generate a README.md
3. Upload both files
4. Provide the repo URL

Limitations#

• Cannot generate skills that require external paid APIs without user providing credentials
• Cannot test skills that need runtime environment (those must be tested manually)
• Complex multi-agent workflows require advanced technical understanding
