Skill for OpenClaw

What this skill does

Your AI CoPilot on Mobile — or give your AI its own phone. Make calls, send SMS, speak via TTS on speakerphone, automate UI, manage files, search media, and 40+ more tools via MCP. Open source, self-hosted, privacy-first.

The Skill is part of the Research & Knowledge category — research and knowledge skills that gather, search, and summarize information. You can install it on its own or alongside other research & knowledge skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install the 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 aster 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 Skill with a single command:

openclaw skills add aster

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

How to use the Skill

Once installed, the 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.

Putting audio in front of an audience

Skill works with audio. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — pairs audio with footage or generated visuals, burns synced captions, and exports a finished short.

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 aster-0.1.14.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/aster/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
