Install the Add Atomic Chat Tool skill

Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)

npx skills add https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw --skill add-atomic-chat-tool

Claude Code, by hand (all projects)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git /tmp/nanoclaw
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/nanoclaw/.claude/skills/add-atomic-chat-tool ~/.claude/skills/add-atomic-chat-tool

For one project only, copy the folder into .claude/skills/ in that project instead. The agent picks it up when a task matches its description.

What it costs your context

Agent Skills load in three steps. Tokens counted with the o200k tokenizer; your model's count will differ a little.

Until it is used, add-atomic-chat-tool costs about 41× less than the median MCP server we measured (1,362 tokens on every turn). Installing all 64 skills from nanocoai/nanoclaw would load 3,369 tokens of descriptions. Skills vs MCP study

  • Restart the service
  • Phase 4: Verify
  • Test inference
  • Check logs if needed
  • Troubleshooting

  1. add-anydocnanocoai/nanoclaw

    Add local office-document-to-Markdown conversion to NanoClaw agent containers with the pinned Firecrawl AnyDoc CLI. Use when agents need to read attached Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OpenDocument, RTF, EPUB, CSV, or text-based PDF files without uploading them to a hosted parser.

  2. add-clidashnanocoai/nanoclaw

    Add clidash — a zero-dependency, read-only web dashboard that derives its tabs and tables at runtime from any CLI that lists resources as JSON. Ships pre-wired for NanoClaw's ncl CLI (agent groups, sessions, channels, users, roles), plus message-activity charts, a log tail, and a read-only file viewer for group skills/CLAUDE.md/profiles.

  3. add-codexnanocoai/nanoclaw

    Use Codex (OpenAI's codex app-server) as a full agent provider — planning, tool orchestration, MCP tools, server-side history, session resume — alongside or instead of Claude. ChatGPT subscription or OpenAI API key, vault-only via the selected gateway. Per-group via `ncl groups config update --provider codex`. Distinct from using OpenAI as an MCP tool (where Claude remains the planner).

  4. add-cursornanocoai/nanoclaw

    Use Cursor (local Agent SDK) as a full agent provider — planning, tool orchestration, MCP tools, session resume — alongside or instead of Claude. Cursor-account sign-in or API key, held by the credential gateway. Per-group via `ncl groups config update --provider cursor`. Distinct from using Cursor as a cloud agent (those run on Cursor VMs and are not this provider).

  5. add-dashboardnanocoai/nanoclaw

    Add a monitoring dashboard to NanoClaw. Installs @nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard and a pusher that sends periodic JSON snapshots.

  7. add-dialnanocoai/nanoclaw

    Add Dial channel integration — a real phone number for SMS and AI voice calls via the Dial platform (getdial.ai). Native adapter — no Chat SDK bridge.

  8. add-dial-numbernanocoai/nanoclaw

    Add another phone number to an existing Dial channel — a second (or third) public line for the agent, so one NanoClaw install answers SMS and AI voice calls on multiple numbers. Use when Dial is already installed and the operator wants an additional number (e.g. a personal line plus a support line). Requires the Dial channel to already be installed (see /add-dial).
