Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add nanocoai/nanoclaw
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add nanocoai/nanoclaw --skill add-anydoc — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclawcp -r "nanoclaw/.claude/skills/add-anydoc" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the add-anydoc skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add nanocoai/nanoclaw
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md — showing the first 30 of 63 files.
-
add-anydoc
Add local office-document-to-Markdown conversion to NanoClaw agent containers with the pinned Firecrawl AnyDoc CLI. Use when agents need to read attached Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OpenDocument, RTF, EPUB, CSV, or text-based PDF files without uploading them to a hosted parser.
.claude/skills/add-anydoc/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-atomic-chat-tool
Add Atomic Chat MCP server so the container agent can call local models served by the Atomic Chat desktop app via its OpenAI-compatible API.
.claude/skills/add-atomic-chat-tool/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-clidash
Add clidash — a zero-dependency, read-only web dashboard that derives its tabs and tables at runtime from any CLI that lists resources as JSON. Ships pre-wired for NanoClaw's ncl CLI (agent groups, sessions, channels, users, roles), plus message-activity charts, a log tail, and a read-only file viewer for group skills/CLAUDE.md/profiles.
.claude/skills/add-clidash/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-codex
Use Codex (OpenAI's codex app-server) as a full agent provider — planning, tool orchestration, MCP tools, server-side history, session resume — alongside or instead of Claude. ChatGPT subscription or OpenAI API key, vault-only via the selected gateway. Per-group via `ncl groups config update --provider codex`. Distinct from using OpenAI as an MCP tool (where Claude remains the planner).
.claude/skills/add-codex/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-dashboard
Add a monitoring dashboard to NanoClaw. Installs @nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard and a pusher that sends periodic JSON snapshots.
.claude/skills/add-dashboard/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-deltachat
Add DeltaChat channel integration via @deltachat/stdio-rpc-server. Native adapter — no Chat SDK bridge. Email-based messaging with end-to-end encryption.
.claude/skills/add-deltachat/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-dial-number
Add another phone number to an existing Dial channel — a second (or third) public line for the agent, so one NanoClaw install answers SMS and AI voice calls on multiple numbers. Use when Dial is already installed and the operator wants an additional number (e.g. a personal line plus a support line). Requires the Dial channel to already be installed (see /add-dial).
.claude/skills/add-dial-number/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-dial-tool
Give chosen NanoClaw agents a real phone number as a container tool — the `dial` CLI baked into the agent image plus OneCLI credential injection for api.getdial.ai, scoped per agent, so the agents you pick can send SMS, place AI voice calls, and receive verification codes from inside the sandbox. Independent of the Dial channel; idempotent; re-run to change which agents may use it. Use when the u…
.claude/skills/add-dial-tool/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-dial
Add Dial channel integration — a real phone number for SMS and AI voice calls via the Dial platform (getdial.ai). Native adapter — no Chat SDK bridge.
.claude/skills/add-dial/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-discord
Add Discord bot channel integration via Chat SDK.
.claude/skills/add-discord/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-emacs
Add Emacs as a channel. Opens an interactive chat buffer and org-mode integration so you can talk to NanoClaw from within Emacs (Doom, Spacemacs, or vanilla). Local HTTP bridge — no bot token or external service needed.
.claude/skills/add-emacs/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-gchat
Add Google Chat channel integration via Chat SDK.
.claude/skills/add-gchat/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-github
Add GitHub channel integration via Chat SDK. PR and issue comment threads as conversations.
.claude/skills/add-github/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-imessage
Add iMessage to NanoClaw — one channel, two backends. Local (this Mac's chat.db via the Chat SDK bridge; macOS + Full Disk Access) or Hosted iMessage (via photon.codes — native spectrum-ts with a device-login wizard; any OS, no Mac relay). Triggers on "add imessage", "connect imessage", "add photon", "imessage via photon", "native imessage".
.claude/skills/add-imessage/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-iron-proxy
Install or refresh Iron Proxy and its official Iron Control web console for NanoClaw. Use when selecting the Iron gateway, adding its management UI, configuring credentials and grants, or restoring the proxy, approval bridge, and agent guidance.
.claude/skills/add-iron-proxy/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-karpathy-llm-wiki
Add a persistent wiki knowledge base to a NanoClaw group. Based on Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern. Triggers on "add wiki", "wiki", "knowledge base", "llm wiki", "karpathy wiki".
.claude/skills/add-karpathy-llm-wiki/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-linear
Add Linear channel integration via Chat SDK. Issue comment threads as conversations.
.claude/skills/add-linear/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-macos-statusbar
Add a macOS menu bar status indicator for NanoClaw. Shows a bolt icon with a green/red dot indicating whether NanoClaw is running, with Start, Stop, and Restart controls. macOS only.
.claude/skills/add-macos-statusbar/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-matrix
Add Matrix channel integration via Chat SDK. Works with any Matrix homeserver.
.claude/skills/add-matrix/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-mattermost
Add a self-hosted or cloud Mattermost bot channel through the Chat SDK bridge, reusing a healthy server when available and linking to official server setup guidance when needed.
.claude/skills/add-mattermost/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-mnemon
Add persistent graph-based memory via mnemon. Agents recall past context before responding and remember insights after each turn.
.claude/skills/add-mnemon/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-ollama-provider
Route a NanoClaw agent group to a local Ollama model instead of the Anthropic API. Ollama speaks the Anthropic API natively (v1/messages), so no provider code changes are needed — just env var overrides and a model setting. Use when the user wants to run their agent locally, cut API costs, or experiment with open-weight models. See docs/ollama.md for background.
.claude/skills/add-ollama-provider/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-ollama-tool
Add Ollama MCP server so the container agent can call local models and optionally manage the Ollama model library.
.claude/skills/add-ollama-tool/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-onecli
Install or refresh OneCLI as NanoClaw's gateway provider. Use when setup selects OneCLI, an existing OneCLI-backed install is migrated to the gateway seam, or its runtime, approval bridge, setup, and agent guidance must be restored from the in-tree package.
.claude/skills/add-onecli/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-opencode
Use OpenCode as an agent provider. OpenRouter, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, etc. via OpenCode config — not the Anthropic Agent SDK. Per group via `ncl groups config update --provider opencode`; host passes OPENCODE_* and XDG mount when spawning containers.
.claude/skills/add-opencode/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-resend
Add Resend (email) channel integration via Chat SDK.
.claude/skills/add-resend/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-rtk
Install rtk token-compression proxy into agent containers. Routes Bash tool calls through rtk for 60–90% token savings on dev commands (git, cargo, pytest, docker, kubectl, etc.).
.claude/skills/add-rtk/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-signal
Add Signal channel integration via signal-cli device-link. Native adapter — no Chat SDK bridge.
.claude/skills/add-signal/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-slack
Add Slack channel integration via Chat SDK.
.claude/skills/add-slack/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
add-tavily-tool

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
