Install the Update Skills skill
Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)
npx skills add https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw --skill update-skills
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/update-skills ~/.claude/skills/update-skills
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.
| When | What loads | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Every session | Name and description | 54 tok |
| When the agent uses it | The SKILL.md instructions | 703 tok |
| Only if opened | No bundled files | — |
Until it is used, update-skills costs about 25× 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

More skills from nanocoai/nanoclaw
- 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.
31k164 tok idle · 1,758 in use - add-atomic-chat-toolnanocoai/nanoclaw
Add Atomic Chat MCP server so the container agent can call local models served by the Atomic Chat desktop app via its OpenAI-compatible API.
31k433 tok idle · 2,544 in use - 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.
31k2287 tok idle · 1,726 in use - 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).
31k1992 tok idle · 2,392 in use - 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).
