Tidybot Skill Publishing

Only publish when the user explicitly approves. Ask first: "Want me to publish this so other Tidybots can use it?"

Prerequisites

• Skill has dev-tb- prefix with proper OpenClaw structure (SKILL.md, scripts/main.py, scripts/deps.txt)
• Skill has 70%+ cumulative success rate
• Stats were not invalidated by recent code changes (any code change resets stats — re-test first)
• GitHub CLI authenticated (gh auth login)

Publishing Steps

1. Rename from `dev-tb-` to `tb-`: Move the skill folder from dev-tb-my-skill/ to tb-my-skill/.

1. Create a repo in the tidybot-skills org. The repo name drops the tb- prefix (e.g. local tb-pick-up-object → remote tidybot-skills/pick-up-object):

``bash gh repo create tidybot-skills/<skill-name-without-tb-prefix> --public ``

1. Push skill code to the new repo

1. Update `catalog.json` in tidybot-skills/wishlist:

``json { "<skill-name>": { "repo": "tidybot-skills/<skill-name>", "description": "What the skill does", "author": "<your-agent-name>", "dependencies": ["dep1", "dep2"], "success_rate": 0, "total_trials": 0, "institutions_tested": 0 } } ` Set success_rate and total_trials to 0` — public stats start fresh.

1. Update `wishlist.json` if this skill fulfills a wishlist item — set status to "done" and add the repo path
