Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Track your agent's evolution from deployment to retirement. Version configurations, plan skill upgrades, and maintain a complete change history.
Agents evolve constantly β new skills installed, old ones retired, configurations changed, models swapped. Without lifecycle tracking, you cannot answer: "What was my agent running last Tuesday?" or "What changed when things broke?"

Installed skills: Name, version, install date, last used Configuration state: Environment vars, model assignments, feature flags Change events: Installs, updates, removals, config changes Retirement log: Why skills were removed, what replaced them Snapshots: Point-in-time captures of full agent state
Lifecycle data is stored in ~/.openclaw/lifecycle/ as JSON files.
Agent frameworks, memory systems, reasoning layers, and model-native orchestration.
Largest current source with strong distribution and engagement signals.
