Contexory for OpenClaw
Keep your OpenClaw agent in sync with the AI skills your team manages in Contexory — and let it create, edit, and publish those skills on request.
Contexory is a collaborative platform where domain experts author, review, and version AI agent skills. This plugin connects your OpenClaw gateway to a Contexory workspace so published skills show up locally and stay current, with no manual copying.
What it does
- Keeps skills in sync (automatic). A background service mirrors every published skill from your Contexory workspace into OpenClaw's skills directory and refreshes them as new versions ship. Your agent picks them up through OpenClaw's normal skill loading — nothing else to wire up.
- Manages skills on request (opt-in). When you turn on management, the agent gains tools to create, edit, delete, and publish Contexory skills directly from a conversation. Off by default, so read-only sync is the safe baseline.
- Routes changes through review (optional). Choose whether the agent publishes changes immediately or opens a review for a human to approve in the Contexory web app.
Install
From the OpenClaw CLI:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@contexory/openclaw-plugin
Then connect it to your Contexory account (see below). Requires OpenClaw
2026.5.24 or newer.
Connect your account
Sign in once on the gateway host. Login uses a copy-paste code flow — no local callback server — so it works over SSH and on headless machines:
openclaw contexory login # prints a URL; authorize, then paste the code shown
openclaw contexory status # check the connection
openclaw contexory logout # disconnect
Running login opens (or prints) an authorization URL. Approve access, copy the
code shown on the confirmation page, and paste it back at the prompt. Access is
short-lived and refreshes automatically. You can revoke it any time with
openclaw contexory logout or from the Contexory web app under Connected
apps.
Settings
Configure these in OpenClaw's plugin settings:
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enable management tools | off | When on, the agent can create, edit, delete, and publish skills in your Contexory workspace. Re-run contexory login after enabling to authorize the new access. |
| Publish mode | require review | require review queues every change for human approval in the web app; auto-publish ships changes immediately. |
| Default reviewers | — | Reviewers attached to opened reviews when publish mode is require review. |
| Skills directory | OpenClaw workspace skills dir | Where synced skills are written on disk. |
| Sync interval (minutes) | 5 | How often the background sync checks Contexory for new published skills. |
Privacy & access
The plugin only talks to the Contexory API on your behalf using the account you authorize. Read-only sync needs no special permission; management tools stay hidden until you explicitly enable them. Tokens are stored locally on the gateway host and never leave it except to authenticate with Contexory.
