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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. 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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Alibaba Cloud Account: Register at Alibaba Cloud Bailian API Key: Obtain a DashScope API Key from the console
openclaw skill install bailian-search # or clawhub install bailian-search
# Clone to OpenClaw workspace git clone <repository-url> ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/bailian-search # Or download and extract to: # ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/bailian-search/
Option 1: Temporary (current session) export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="your-dashscope-api-key" Option 2: Permanent (recommended) Add to your shell profile (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc): echo 'export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="your-dashscope-api-key"' >> ~/.zshrc source ~/.zshrc Option 3: OpenClaw Config openclaw config set env.DASHSCOPE_API_KEY "your-dashscope-api-key"
# After setting environment variable ./search.sh "latest tech news" # Or one-liner DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="your-key" ./search.sh "OpenAI GPT-5 release"
Once configured, simply ask your AI assistant: "Search for today's tech news" "Find OpenAI's latest announcements" "Look up 2025 China EV sales data" The AI will automatically use this skill to fetch real-time information.
