OpenClaw's skill registry (ClawHub) has over 5,700 community-built skills. That's a lot to sift through. Here are our picks for the most useful ones, organized by category.
How Skills Work
Skills extend what OpenClaw can do. They're like apps for your AI assistant — install one, and OpenClaw gains new capabilities.
Install any skill with:
openclaw plugins install SKILL_NAME
Or if you're using ClawTank, skills can be managed through the dashboard.
Productivity
Gog (Google Workspace)
Unifies Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Contacts, Sheets, and Docs into one interface. Instead of five separate integrations, Gog gives OpenClaw access to your entire Google ecosystem.

Todoist / Notion Integration
Syncs your tasks and notes with Todoist or Notion. OpenClaw can create, update, and check off tasks through natural language.

Calendar Sync
Reads your calendar and proactively reminds you of upcoming meetings. Can also schedule new events from chat.

Finance
Expense Tracker
Send photos of receipts and OpenClaw extracts the amount, category, and date. Ask for monthly summaries anytime.
