Self Reflection

What this skill does

Continuous self-improvement through structured reflection and memory

Self Reflection 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 Self Reflection

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 self-reflection 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 Self Reflection with a single command:

openclaw skills add self-reflection

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

How to use Self Reflection

Once installed, Self Reflection 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 self-reflection-1.1.1.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/self-reflection/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
