  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by openclaw on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Discrawl AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/tree/main/.agents/skills/discrawl
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw.git /tmp/openclaw
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/openclaw/.agents/skills/discrawl .claude/skills/discrawl
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Discrawl in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Discrawl on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Discrawl is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Discrawl

Use local Discord archives first. For recent/current questions, check discrawl status --json; use discrawl doctor for source/config readiness. Refresh only when stale, missing the requested scope, or explicitly requested.

bash
discrawl sync --source wiretap  # local Discord Desktop artifacts
discrawl sync                   # configured source; bot API requires credentials

Use --full only for deliberate historical backfills. Do not interrupt another archive writer to resolve a busy/locked database. Resolve configured paths instead of assuming default macOS, XDG, or legacy locations.

Read Bounded Slices

bash
DISCRAWL_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 discrawl search --limit 20 "query"
discrawl messages --channel '<channel>' --days 7 --all
discrawl dms --last 20
DISCRAWL_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 discrawl --json sql "select count(*) as messages from messages;"

DISCRAWL_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 suppresses git-share updates during read smokes. discrawl sql is read-only by default and accepts SQL arguments or stdin. Use it for exact counts/joins when normal reads are too coarse; never use --unsafe --confirm without an explicitly requested and reviewed database mutation. Consult subcommand help for filters. Report absolute date spans, channel/DM names, counts, freshness, and source gaps.

Source Boundaries

Desktop wiretap reads local artifacts; it must not extract credentials, use user tokens, call Discord as the user, or write Discord application storage. Bot sync needs configured bot credentials; never infer availability. Desktop DMs are local-only, not part of the published Git snapshot. Git-share snapshots must exclude secrets and @me DM rows.

For implementation work or a genuinely missing CLI feature, verify the checkout remote is openclaw/discrawl and follow its instructions. Do not assume a machine-specific historical checkout path.

ClawSweeper Sandbox

Use the sandbox reader only:

bash
discrawl-sandbox search --limit 20 "query"
discrawl-sandbox messages --channel clawtributors --days 7 --all
discrawl-sandbox status --json

This reader imports https://github.com/openclaw/discord-store.git into /root/clawsweeper-sandbox-workspace/.discrawl/discrawl.db with discord.token_source = "none". The published Git snapshot is public-channel filtered; do not use /root/.discrawl/config.toml or the rich writer DB from sandboxed public Discord sessions.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Discrawl AI skill do?

Discord archive: search, sync freshness, DMs, summaries, TUI, repo/release work.

Why use Discrawl on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Discrawl is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Discrawl in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/tree/main/.agents/skills/discrawl. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Discrawl?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Discrawl?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Discrawl with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Discrawl AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by openclaw. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
