## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
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.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
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.
```

### 1. Generate GitHub Personal Access Token

Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens
Click "Generate new token (classic)"
Name: openclaw-github-skill
Scopes: repo (required), read:user (optional)
Copy the token

### 2. Configure Credentials

Option A: Environment Variables (Recommended)

Set environment variables before starting OpenClaw:

export GITHUB_TOKEN="ghp_your_token_here"
export GITHUB_USERNAME="your_github_username"

Option B: OpenClaw Config

Add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "github": {
    "token": "ghp_your_token_here",
    "username": "your_username"
  }
}

### 3. Restart OpenClaw

openclaw gateway restart

### Security Notes

⚠️ Protect Your Token:

Never commit your token to git or share it publicly
Use the minimal required scopes (repo for private repos, public_repo for public-only)
Rotate your token if you suspect it was compromised
Consider using a secrets manager for production use

⚠️ Best Practices:

Don't store tokens in shell profiles (~/.zshrc) on shared machines
For local development, environment variables are acceptable
For production, use your platform's secret/credential store
