clipboard-memory skill for OpenClaw

What this skill does

Recall what the user copied on this Mac via the local clipmem archive — text, commands, URLs, file paths, HTML, images, PDFs. Triggers on requests like "what was that command I copied?", "the URL I copied from Safari", "find that snippet before I restarted", or any paraphrase involving copy, paste, or clipboard. Offers ranked recall, chronological timeline, lexical / FTS search, raw-byte export for binary content, cursor pagination, and filters by app, kind, time window, and content shape. Use before reaching for generic web or repo search whenever the user is trying to recover something they previously had on the clipboard.

The clipboard-memory 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 clipboard-memory skill

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

1. Download OpenClaw Easy for macOS or Windows (free, one-click installer, ~30 seconds).
2. Open the in-app Skills panel.
3. Search for clipboard-memory and click Install.
4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add the clipboard-memory skill with a single command:

openclaw skills add clipboard-memory

This pulls clipboard-memory from ClawHub and installs it into ~/.openclaw/skills/clipboard-memory/. Restart the OpenClaw gateway afterwards so the new skill is discovered.

How to use the clipboard-memory skill

Once installed, the clipboard-memory 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.

Turning images into video

clipboard-memory works with images. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — turns stills into motion — pans and transitions, synced captions, and a vertical export for short-form feeds.

It runs as an MCP server, so an OpenClaw agent can drive it from the same chat you already use: ask for a short, and the render comes back finished. See how to connect a video pipeline to your agent.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download skill .zip button above to grab clipboard-memory-1.3.9.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/clipboard-memory/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
