--- name: openclaw-ecosystem-news-e2fab611e34c description: "**Version:** 1.0.0 **Author:** OpenClaw Community **Tags:** news, monitoring, ecosystem, github, community **Registry:** https://www.clawhub.ai" --- # OpenClaw Ecosystem News **Version:** 1.0.0 **Author:** OpenClaw Community **Tags:** news, monitoring, ecosystem, github, community **Registry:** https://www.clawhub.ai ## What It Does Aggregates breaking news and developments across the OpenClaw ecosystem into a clean, curated briefing. Pure signal, no noise. **Tracks:** - 🚀 **OpenClaw Releases** — new versions, tags, important PRs from `openclaw/openclaw` - 🧩 **ClawdHub Skills** — recently published or updated skills on the registry - 🔒 **Security Advisories** — CVEs, security issues, vulnerability discussions - 💬 **Community Discussions** — HN threads, Reddit posts, notable tweets - 📰 **Ecosystem News** — major press coverage, new integrations, platform changes - 🐛 **Moltbook Highlights** — hot posts from the agent social network (when available) ## Setup ### Prerequisites - `gh` CLI installed and authenticated (for GitHub API) - `clawdhub` CLI installed (for skill registry queries) - `jq` installed (for JSON processing) - Brave Search available via agent tools (for web searches) ### Installation Copy this skill to your workspace: ``` skills/openclaw-news/ ├── SKILL.md # This file ├── scripts/ │ ├── collect_news.sh # Main data collection script │ └── format_briefing.sh # Formats raw data into a clean briefing └── state/ # Auto-created; stores last-check timestamps └── last_run.json ``` ### Cron Setup For daily briefings (9 AM): ``` openclaw cron add --name "openclaw-news" \ --schedule "0 9 * * *" \ --prompt "Run the OpenClaw Ecosystem News skill. Execute scripts/collect_news.sh from skills/openclaw-news/, then format and deliver the briefing." \ --channel signal ``` For twice-daily (9 AM and 5 PM): ``` openclaw cron add --name "openclaw-news" \ --schedule "0 9,17 * * *" \ --prompt "Run the OpenClaw Ecosystem News skill. Execute scripts/collect_news.sh from skills/openclaw-news/, then format and deliver the briefing." \ --channel signal ``` ## Usage ### Automatic (Cron) Once the cron is set, briefings arrive on schedule. The script tracks what it already reported via `state/last_run.json` — you only see what's new. ### On-Demand When your human asks "what's new in OpenClaw?" or similar: 1. Run `scripts/collect_news.sh` from the skill directory 2. Run `scripts/format_briefing.sh` to produce the briefing 3. Deliver the output Or the agent can use the script outputs directly and format conversationally. ### Diff Mode The scripts automatically compare against the last run. To force a full scan (ignore previous state), delete `state/last_run.json` or pass `--full`: ```bash cd skills/openclaw-news ./scripts/collect_news.sh --full ``` ## Briefing Format ``` 📡 OpenClaw Ecosystem News — Jun 14, 2025 🚀 RELEASES • v0.9.2 released — WebSocket stability fixes, new `canvas` action https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases/tag/v0.9.2 🧩 NEW SKILLS • weather-alerts v2.1.0 — Added severe weather push notifications • home-inventory v1.0.0 — Track household items with camera snaps 🔒 SECURITY • Nothing new — all clear ✅ 💬 COMMUNITY • HN: "OpenClaw is the missing layer for personal AI" (142 points) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=... 📰 ECOSYSTEM • Fortune: "The rise of always-on AI agents" (mentions OpenClaw) — Last checked: Jun 13, 2025 09:00 ET Sources: GitHub, ClawdHub, Brave Search, Moltbook ``` ## How the Agent Should Use This When delivering the briefing: - **Signal/SMS:** Send as a single message, keep it tight - **Discord:** Can be slightly longer; use embeds if available - **Telegram:** Markdown formatting works well - Skip empty sections entirely (don't say "Nothing new" for every category — just omit) - If everything is quiet, a one-liner is fine: "📡 All quiet in the OpenClaw ecosystem today." ## Data Sources | Source | Method | Rate Limits | |--------|--------|-------------| | GitHub Releases | `gh` CLI | 5000 req/hr (authenticated) | | GitHub Issues/PRs | `gh` CLI | Same | | ClawdHub Registry | `clawdhub explore` | Minimal | | Web/News | Brave Search API | Per your plan | | Moltbook | API (when available) | TBD | | Reddit | Brave Search | Per your plan | | HN | Brave Search / API | Generous | ## Works Great With - **fulcra-context** — Pair with Fulcra context to calibrate when and how news gets delivered. If your human is in a deep work block or low-energy, the agent can hold non-urgent news for later or deliver a shorter summary. Keeps the signal-to-noise ratio high not just in content but in timing. ## Customization Edit `scripts/collect_news.sh` to: - Add/remove tracked GitHub repos - Change search queries for community discussions - Adjust the lookback window (default: since last run, or 24h for first run) - Add custom RSS feeds or other sources ## Troubleshooting **No GitHub data:** Run `gh auth status` — make sure you're authenticated. **No ClawdHub data:** Check `clawdhub explore --registry https://www.clawhub.ai` works. **Stale results:** Delete `state/last_run.json` to force a fresh scan. **Empty briefing:** If all sections are empty, the script outputs a "quiet day" message instead of nothing. --- Source attribution: kbarbel640-del Original project: https://github.com/kbarbel640-del/skills/blob/e7e336ac628c3e3bd771aff1aaa469c93778f94a/skills/arc-claw-bot/openclaw-news/SKILL.md License: MIT License information: https://opensource.org/license/mit Original upstream instructions; downloaded from Mega AI Hub. ## Upstream license notice MIT License Copyright (c) 2026 clawdbot Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
