# Skills catalog
> Every skill that ships with NanoClaw — host-side workspace skills you invoke from your coding harness, and container skills mounted into every agent container.
NanoClaw ships two kinds of skills:
* **Host-side workspace skills** (`.claude/skills/`) — invoked from your coding harness in your NanoClaw checkout. They install channels, providers, and tools, or operate and maintain your install. 48 skills total: 17 channel installs, 3 provider installs, 11 tool installs, and 17 operational skills.
* **Container skills** (`container/skills/`) — 6 skills mounted into every agent container at `/app/skills`. The agent loads them at runtime; you don't invoke them yourself.
The `/name` form used throughout this page is Claude Code's. Codex invokes the same skills as `$name` and does not accept `/name`; OpenCode loads them through its own `skill` tool, with no typed form. The skill files are the same ones in every case. A few skills still phrase their steps in Claude Code's tool vocabulary, which other harnesses follow best-effort.
For how skills work and how to write your own, see [Extending NanoClaw](/extend/overview).
## Channel installs
Each skill wires up one messaging channel. See [Channels](/channels/overview) for the full setup guides.
| Skill | What it does |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| `/add-whatsapp-cloud` | Adds the [WhatsApp Business Cloud API](/channels/more-channels#whatsapp-cloud-api) channel via Chat SDK — official Meta API |
## Provider installs
Each skill swaps the agent runtime for a different provider. See [Providers](/extend/providers).
| Skill | What it does |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/add-codex` | Uses Codex (CLI + AppServer) as the full agent provider in place of the Claude Agent SDK — ChatGPT subscription or `OPENAI_API_KEY`, per-group via `agent_provider` |
| `/add-ollama-provider` | Routes an agent group to a local Ollama model instead of the Anthropic API — env var overrides and a model setting, no provider code changes |
| `/add-opencode` | Uses OpenCode as an agent provider (`AGENT_PROVIDER=opencode`) — OpenRouter, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, and more via OpenCode config |
## Tool installs
Each skill adds a capability or MCP tool to your agents. See [Tools](/extend/tools).
| Skill | What it does |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/add-atomic-chat-tool` | Adds the Atomic Chat MCP server so agents can call local models served by the Atomic Chat desktop app via its OpenAI-compatible API |
| `/add-clidash` | Adds clidash — a zero-dependency, read-only web dashboard that derives its tabs and tables at runtime from any CLI that lists resources as JSON, pre-wired for NanoClaw's `ncl` CLI |
| `/add-dashboard` | Adds a monitoring dashboard — installs `@nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard` and a pusher that sends periodic JSON snapshots |
| `/add-gcal-tool` | Adds Google Calendar as an MCP tool (list calendars, list/search/create events, free/busy) using OneCLI-managed OAuth — no raw credentials reach the container |
| `/add-gmail-tool` | Adds Gmail as an MCP tool (read, search, send, label, draft) using OneCLI-managed OAuth — tokens injected at request time |
| `/add-karpathy-llm-wiki` | Adds a persistent wiki knowledge base to a group, based on Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern |
| `/add-macos-statusbar` | Adds a macOS menu bar status indicator with Start, Stop, and Restart controls (macOS only) |
| `/add-mnemon` | Adds persistent graph-based memory via mnemon — agents recall past context before responding and remember insights after each turn |
| `/add-ollama-tool` | Adds the Ollama MCP server so agents can call local models and optionally manage the Ollama model library |
| `/add-rtk` | Installs the rtk token-compression proxy into agent containers — routes Bash tool calls through rtk for 60–90% token savings on dev commands |
| `/add-vercel` | Adds Vercel deployment capability — installs the Vercel CLI in agent containers with OneCLI credential injection for `api.vercel.com` |
## Operational skills
Setup, maintenance, migration, and day-to-day administration of your install.
| Skill | What it does |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/customize` | Adds new capabilities or modifies NanoClaw behavior — interactive skill that asks questions to understand what you want |
| `/debug` | Debugs container agent issues — logs, session DBs, mounts, authentication problems, and common failures |
| `/get-qodo-rules` | Loads org- and repo-level coding rules from Qodo before code tasks begin, so generation follows team standards |
| `/init-first-agent` | Walks you through creating the first agent for a DM channel — resolves your channel identity, wires the DM group, and triggers a welcome DM |
| `/init-onecli` | Installs and initializes OneCLI Agent Vault, migrating existing `.env` credentials to the vault |
| `/learn` | Distills a reusable skill from a source — a directory, URL, pasted notes, or the work just done in the conversation — or refines an existing one, writing a `.claude/skills//SKILL.md` to the project's skill guidelines. Creates or refines skills; it doesn't install them from a registry |
| `/manage-channels` | Wires channels to agent groups, manages isolation levels, and adds new channel groups |
| `/manage-mounts` | Configures which host directories agent containers can access — view, add, or remove mount allowlist entries |
| `/migrate-from-openclaw` | Migrates from OpenClaw to NanoClaw v2 — detects an existing install, extracts identity, credentials, and tasks, then guides interactive migration |
| `/migrate-from-v1` | Finishes migrating a NanoClaw v1 install into v2 after `migrate-v2.sh` — seeds the owner, reconciles container configs, helps port custom v1 code |
| `/migrate-memory` | Carries an agent group's memory across a provider switch (e.g. Claude ↔ Codex) — run after `ncl groups config update --provider`; reads the source provider's memory store, distills it into the target's, and restarts the group |
| `/migrate-nanoclaw` | Extracts your customizations from a fork, generates a replayable migration guide, and upgrades to upstream by reapplying them on a clean base |
| `/qodo-pr-resolver` | Reviews and resolves PR issues with Qodo — AI-powered code review fixes for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps |
| `/setup` | Runs initial NanoClaw setup — install, configure, first-time setup |
| `/update-nanoclaw` | Brings upstream updates into a customized install with preview, selective cherry-pick, and low token usage |
| `/update-skills` | Re-applies your installed skills to pull their latest code from upstream |
| `/use-native-credential-proxy` | Opts out of the OneCLI gateway — reads Anthropic credentials from `.env` and injects them into the container's API requests |
## Container skills
Mounted into every agent container at `/app/skills`. The agent picks them up automatically based on context — channel, task, or trigger.
| Skill | What it does |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `agent-browser` | Browses the web for any task — research, web apps, forms, screenshots, data extraction, page testing |
| `frontend-engineer` | Enforces a build-test-verify workflow for web projects — never done until built, tested, responsive, accessible, and visually verified |
| `onecli-gateway` | Transparent HTTPS proxy that injects stored credentials into outbound calls — the agent makes plain HTTP requests and the gateway handles auth |
| `self-customize` | Lets the agent customize itself — add capabilities, install packages, add MCP servers, edit code or its memory files |
| `vercel-cli` | Deploys apps to Vercel and manages Vercel projects, domains, and environment variables |
| `welcome` | Introduces the agent to a newly connected channel — triggered automatically when a channel is first wired |
Channel-specific formatting skills (`slack-formatting`, `whatsapp-formatting`) are not part of the base image — they live on the `channels` branch and install alongside their channel via `/add-slack` and `/add-whatsapp`.
