What it does

This skill gives an AI agent a ready-made status report for the ClawSweeper review bot that runs on the openclaw GitHub repositories. When asked for status, the agent runs a bundled shell script that uses the GitHub CLI to collect recent merged, reviewed, commented and closed items, active workflow runs, and capacity and queue health. The agent then reports these in fixed sections, explaining whether a backlog is deliberate holding, rate limiting, or parked items that need a human.

Great for

  • Maintainers of the openclaw projects who monitor the ClawSweeper review bot
  • Engineers on the openclaw team checking whether automated reviews are stalled or overloaded

Skip it if

  • Anyone outside the openclaw GitHub organisation, since the script is hard-wired to openclaw repositories and hard-coded local paths (the paths are the author's own machine) and its queue data is specific to that setup
  • Generic GitHub repository status checks, because it only reports on ClawSweeper and Codex-related workflow activity

Try asking

  • “Check ClawSweeper status for the last 10 hours”
  • “Is the ClawSweeper review queue stalled or just throttled?”
  • “Show recently merged and reviewed items for openclaw/openclaw”
  • “Give me a short ops snapshot of active ClawSweeper workers”

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Edit the hard-coded /Users/steipete paths to point at your own copy of the skill before use, since the SKILL.md examples will not resolve elsewhere
  • Use --repo and --hours to narrow the window instead of relying on defaults, and review the script before running it since it executes shell commands and calls the GitHub API with your credentials
