# Send OpenClaw News to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## 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. 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. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### 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)

### 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

### 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:

Run scripts/collect_news.sh from the skill directory
Run scripts/format_briefing.sh to produce the briefing
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:

cd skills/openclaw-news
./scripts/collect_news.sh --full

### 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."

### 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.
