Open Persona

What this skill does

Meta-skill for building and managing agent persona skill packs (instruction-only; no bundled installer or auto-downloaded binaries). Credentials are never written into generated packs by the framework; publish/ACN/register require explicit user CLI.

Open Persona 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 Open Persona

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 open-persona 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 Open Persona with a single command:

openclaw skills add open-persona

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

How to use Open Persona

Once installed, Open Persona 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.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab open-persona-0.22.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/open-persona/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
