Article Illustrator skill for OpenClaw

What this skill does

When the user wants to add illustrations to an article or blog post. Triggers on: "illustrate article", "add images to article", "generate illustrations", "article images", or requests to visually enhance written content. Analyzes article structure, identifies positions for visual aids, and generates illustrations using a Type x Style two-dimension approach.

The Article Illustrator skill 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.

How to install the Article Illustrator skill

The easiest path is via the OpenClaw Easy desktop app — one click, no terminal required:

1. Download OpenClaw Easy for macOS or Windows (free, one-click installer, ~30 seconds).
2. Open the in-app Skills panel.
3. Search for article-illustrator and click Install.
4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add the Article Illustrator skill with a single command:

openclaw skills add article-illustrator

This pulls article-illustrator from ClawHub and installs it into ~/.openclaw/skills/article-illustrator/. Restart the OpenClaw gateway afterwards so the new skill is discovered.

How to use the Article Illustrator skill

Once installed, the Article Illustrator skill activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.

Turning images into video

Article Illustrator works with images. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — turns stills into motion — pans and transitions, synced captions, and a vertical export for short-form feeds.

It runs as an MCP server, so an OpenClaw agent can drive it from the same chat you already use: ask for a short, and the render comes back finished. See how to connect a video pipeline to your agent.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download skill .zip button above to grab article-illustrator-0.1.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/article-illustrator/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
