# SkilzVolt OpenClaw MCP runbook

This is the official public setup and migration reference for OpenClaw. It contains no credentials.

## Connect with OAuth
1. Run both commands in the terminal that runs OpenClaw.
2. Complete the SkilzVolt sign-in and consent flow in the browser opened by OpenClaw.
3. Return to OpenClaw and verify the connection with a workspace list and a skill read.
Commands:
openclaw mcp add skilzvolt --url https://app.skilzvolt.com/mcp --transport streamable-http
openclaw mcp login skilzvolt
Use OAuth for OpenClaw. Do not ask a person for a connection key, screenshot, or redacted credential.

## Verify the live connection
1. Call `workspaces_list` — List the workspaces available to this connection.
2. Call `skills_search` — Search for a relevant skill in an available workspace.
3. Call `skills_get` — Open one search result and read its current content.
Confirm success only after both a workspace list and a skill read succeed.

## What this connection does
The MCP connection makes SkilzVolt tools and current skill content available to OpenClaw. It does not automatically install SkilzVolt skills into OpenClaw's local runtime or guarantee that OpenClaw will consult them for every task.

## Required runtime model
1. Dynamic MCP retrieval
OpenClaw searches and reads the current approved skill through SkilzVolt MCP tools when organisation-specific work begins.

## Do not use a local mirror
Do not create or maintain a local runtime mirror for organisation-specific skills. SkilzVolt is the only canonical source; a local copy would create a competing source of truth and must not be edited or treated as approved.

## Authority and migration
The signed-in SkilzVolt user's live workspace memberships determine which workspaces are available. Skill writes create proposals and continue to follow each workspace's review policy.
A read-write connection can create skills and propose changes; it does not bypass the applicable review policy.
Do not retire another canonical skill publisher until dynamic MCP retrieval has been tested with an approved skill, a proposed change, a review decision, an export, and a rollback.
