  1. Create a skill folder with SKILL.md in your GitHub repo
  2. Publish to ClawdHub for Clawdbot-specific discovery:
    clawdhub publish ./your-skill/ --slug your-skill --name "Your Skill" --version 1.0.0
  3. Install in Clawdbot:
    clawdhub install your-skill

Notes

  • Queries https://skills.sh/api/skills (official skills.sh API)
  • Results sorted by install count (most popular first)
  • Clawdbot-only: Install via clawdhub install skills-search
  • Skills.sh leaderboard requires GitHub repo (not needed for ClawdHub-only skills)
