Career skill for OpenClaw

What this skill does

Advises on career decisions — offer evaluation, salary and equity negotiation, promotions, pivots, and layoff response. Use when the user receives an offer or a recruiter ping, feels underpaid or stuck at a level, weighs staying vs quitting, gets passed over for promotion, faces a PIP, layoff, firing, or rescinded offer, compares equity and vesting packages, or plans a change of role, industry, or IC-to-manager track. Not for writing the resume itself (resume) or running the application pipeline (job-search).

The Career skill is part of the Research & Knowledge category — research and knowledge skills that gather, search, and summarize information. You can install it on its own or alongside other research & knowledge skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install the Career skill

The easiest path is via the OpenClaw Easy desktop app — one click, no terminal required:

2. Open the in-app Skills panel.

4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

How to use the Career skill

Once installed, the Career skill activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.
