aelf Skills

A single discovery and bootstrap entry for the aelf skill ecosystem.

This repository provides:

1. Bilingual entry docs for humans and AI agents.
2. A machine-readable catalog: skills-catalog.json.
3. One-click bootstrap: bootstrap.sh.

AI Quick Prompt (OpenClaw / Codex / Cursor / Claude Code)

Repository: https://github.com/AElfProject/aelf-skills
This is a client-agnostic prompt for OpenClaw, Codex, Cursor, and Claude Code.
Read first: skills-catalog.json, docs/SKILL_ROUTING_MATRIX.md, docs/AI_E2E_SCENARIOS.md.
Then run:
1) ./bootstrap.sh --source github --dest ./downloaded-skills
2) bun run health:check -- --skills-root ./downloaded-skills
3) read `clientInstall.openclaw` / `clientInstall.ironclaw` from `skills-catalog.json`; if `installCommand` exists, execute it locally instead of treating a GitHub tree URL as the final install input
Routing rule: follow SKILL_ROUTING_MATRIX; if ambiguous, output Recommended/Alternative/Reason.
Failure rule: use Common Recovery Template in docs/AI_E2E_SCENARIOS.md.

Scope

This hub focuses on discovery, download, install, and capability indexing.

It does not replace each skill repository's own client integration logic. Client-specific setup (OpenClaw, Cursor, Claude Desktop, IronClaw, Codex, Claude Code) remains inside each skill repo. AI agents: jump to AI Navigation for routing and execution guides.

Discovery vs Activation

Treat skill distribution in two stages:

1. discovery: GitHub repo URL / npm package / ClawHub slug help the host find the skill.
2. activation: the host or agent executes the machine-readable install contract from skills-catalog.json.

Rules:

1. GitHub tree/repo URLs are discovery sources only. Do not treat them as the final IronClaw install artifact.
2. For IronClaw, prefer clientInstall.ironclaw.installCommand and expect a trusted local install step.
3. For OpenClaw, prefer ClawHub / managed install when distributionSources.clawhubId exists; otherwise use clientInstall.openclaw.installCommand.

Prerequisites

• bun >= 1.1.0 (hard requirement)
• npm >= 10
• git >= 2.39
• tar (GNU tar / bsdtar)

Local Environment Setup

workspace.json paths use ${SKILLS_BASE} placeholders for portability. workspace.json is Codex-local workspace config; external consumers should use skills-catalog.json as the data source.

export SKILLS_BASE=/path/to/your/workspace

Example:

• ${SKILLS_BASE}/AElf/aelf-node-skill
• ${SKILLS_BASE}/awaken/awaken-agent-skills

Install

npm install @blockchain-forever/aelf-skills
# or
bun add @blockchain-forever/aelf-skills

Quick Start

# 1) Generate public catalog and sync README tables
bun run catalog:generate

# 2) Generate local catalog with sourcePath (for local bootstrap/health)
bun run catalog:generate:local

# 3) Run baseline gates
bun run health:check
bun run readme:check
bun run security:audit

# 4) Bootstrap selected skills
./bootstrap.sh --only aelf-node-skill --skip-install

# 5) Check hub/catalog update drift (non-blocking)
bun run update:check

Bootstrap CLI

./bootstrap.sh [--catalog <path>] [--dest <dir>] [--source auto|npm|github|local] [--skip-install] [--skip-health] [--only <csv>]

Defaults:

1. --source auto (npm first, fallback to github)
2. install enabled
3. health check enabled
4. skills-catalog.json as catalog source

Update Self-Check

aelf-skills includes built-in update reminders for bootstrap, health:check, and catalog:generate. Checks are non-blocking and cache-backed (default TTL 24h). Reminder output is throttled to once per TTL window by lastNotifiedAt.

Commands:

1. bun run update:check
2. bun run update:check -- --force
3. bun run update:check:json

Environment variables:

1. AELF_SKILLS_UPDATE_CHECK=0|1 (default 1)
2. AELF_SKILLS_UPDATE_TTL_HOURS=24 (default 24)
3. AELF_SKILLS_UPDATE_CACHE_PATH=<path> (default ~/.aelf-skills/update-check-cache.json)

Generated Catalog

skills-catalog.json is the stable machine interface.

Main fields per skill:

1. id, displayName
2. npm (name, version)
3. repository.https
4. distributionSources (githubRepo, npmPackage, optional clawhubId)
5. description, capabilities
6. artifacts (skillMd, mcpServer, openclaw)
7. setupCommands (compatibility display commands such as claudeDesktop, cursor, openclaw, ironclaw)
8. clientSupport (support matrix such as claude_desktop, cursor, ironclaw, codex)
9. clientInstall (machine-executable activation contract for openclaw / ironclaw)
10. dependsOn (optional, schema 1.3.0)

Schema references:

1. docs/schemas/workspace.schema.json
2. docs/schemas/skill-frontmatter.schema.json
3. docs/schemas/openclaw.schema.json
4. docs/schemas/skills-catalog.schema.json

Schema evolution policy:

1. patch (1.3.x): wording/docs fixes, no field semantics change.
2. minor (1.x.0): backward-compatible field additions.
3. major (x.0.0): breaking changes only.

Current Skill Snapshot

This section is auto-synced by bun run catalog:generate.

Health Check

If a check fails, use the Common Recovery Template.

# Check local source repositories from workspace.json
bun run health:check

# Check downloaded skills under specific root
bun run health:check -- --skills-root ./downloaded-skills

Security Boundary

1. bootstrap does not execute setup commands.
2. bootstrap only downloads, optionally installs dependencies, and runs health checks.
3. Use bun run security:audit to detect risky setup command patterns.

CI Gates

CI workflow: .github/workflows/gates.yml

Fixture-based gate set:

1. catalog:generate with testdata/workspace.ci.json
2. health:check against fixture catalog
3. readme:check
4. security:audit
5. bootstrap --only fixture-node-skill --source local --skip-install
