  "content": "The macOS app surfaces OpenClaw skills via the gateway; it does not parse skills locally.\n\n* `skills.status` (gateway) returns all skills plus eligibility and missing requirements\n  (including allowlist blocks for bundled skills).\n* Requirements are derived from `metadata.openclaw.requires` in each `SKILL.md`.\n\n* `metadata.openclaw.install` defines install options (brew/node/go/uv).\n* The app calls `skills.install` to run installers on the gateway host.\n* The gateway surfaces only one preferred installer when multiple are provided\n  (brew when available, otherwise node manager from `skills.install`, default npm).\n\n* The app stores keys in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` under `skills.entries.<skillKey>`.\n* `skills.update` patches `enabled`, `apiKey`, and `env`.\n\n* Install + config updates happen on the gateway host (not the local Mac).",
