Subagent Driven Development

What this skill does

Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session

Subagent Driven Development is part of the Automation & Workflows category — automation and workflow skills that schedule, trigger, and orchestrate tasks. You can install it on its own or alongside other automation & workflows skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install Subagent Driven Development

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 subagent-driven-development 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 Subagent Driven Development with a single command:

openclaw skills add subagent-driven-development

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

How to use Subagent Driven Development

Once installed, Subagent Driven Development 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)

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab subagent-driven-development-0.1.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
