What this skill does
Context retrieval layer for AI agents across users' applications. Search and retrieve context from Airweave collections. Airweave indexes and syncs data from user applications to enable optimal context retrieval by AI agents. Supports semantic, keyword, and agentic search. Use when users ask about their data in connected apps (Slack, GitHub, Notion, Jira, Confluence, Google Drive, Salesforce, Linear, SharePoint, Stripe, etc.), need to find documents or information from their workspace, want answers based on their company data, or need you to check app data for context to complete a task.
Airweave is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.
