You currently can’t remove/hide the bundled (“Built‑in”) skills from the Skills tab. The macOS Skills UI is backed by the gateway’s skills.status, and that endpoint intentionally returns all skills (bundled + managed + workspace) with their eligibility/missing-requirements state — so even “blocked” ones still show up.
Source: https://docs.openclaw.ai/platforms/mac/skills

What you can do:

1) Stop bundled skills from being used (even though they’ll still be listed)

Add an allowlist for bundled skills in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  skills: {
    // Only these bundled skills are allowed to be eligible/used:
    allowBundled: ["peekaboo", "gemini"]
  }
}
#

This does not affect your downloaded/workspace skills. It only gates bundled skills.
Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/skills-config

2) Disable specific skills

Either in the UI (“Disable”) or via config:

{
  skills: {
    entries: {
      "1password": { enabled: false },
      "apple-notes": { enabled: false }
    }
  }
}
