Nice — if it’s already replying on Discord, you’re basically done with the “hard part”. Adding skills is independent of which model you’re using (Kimi/OpenRouter/etc). Skills are just folders with a SKILL.md that OpenClaw loads at session start.

Option A: Install an existing skill from ClawHub (easiest)

On the machine where the Gateway is running:

# (optional) find something
clawhub search "calendar"
clawhub search "home assistant"

# install into your OpenClaw workspace (default is usually ~/.openclaw/workspace)
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace
clawhub install <skill-slug>

Then verify OpenClaw sees it:

#

openclaw skills list
openclaw skills list --eligible
openclaw skills check

Finally, start a new session in Discord (e.g. /new), or restart the gateway if needed:

openclaw gateway restart
