2. Open the in-app Skills panel.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add Knowledge Management with a single command:

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

How to use Knowledge Management

Once installed, Knowledge Management 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.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab knowledge-management-2.1.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
