NemoClaw Skill Scaffolding FAQs

Question 1

Why is the SKILL.md file size limited?

Accepted Answer

Keeping the primary skill file small (under 500 lines) ensures agent efficiency. Detailed documentation is stored in reference files and loaded only when the agent needs specific context.

Question 2

What is a NemoClaw Skill?

Accepted Answer

A NemoClaw skill is a markdown-based instruction module that teaches AI agents how to interact with tools and perform specialized tasks within a secured sandbox environment.

Question 3

How do I install a new skill into a sandbox?

Accepted Answer

Skills can be mounted via the OpenShell policy YAML filesystem paths or manually copied into the ~/.openclaw/skills/ directory inside the connected sandbox.

Question 4

What is the correct naming convention for skills?

Accepted Answer

Skill names should be lowercase, using only letters, numbers, and hyphens, and should ideally be written in gerund form (e.g., 'processing-data').

Question 5

What does conditional gating do?

Accepted Answer

Conditional gating controls when a skill is active based on the availability of specific binaries, environment variables, or system configurations, preventing agents from attempting tasks without the necessary tools.
