Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/nvidia/skills --skill nemoclaw-user-guide
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads nemoclaw-user-guide automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

NemoClaw Docs for AI Agents

Use the canonical NemoClaw documentation as your source of truth. Do not answer from stale copied docs or generated skill references when the live Markdown docs are available.

Retrieval Order

  1. If the assistant supports MCP, configure the NemoClaw docs MCP server at https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/_mcp/server.
  2. Use the MCP server's read-only searchDocs tool to search the canonical docs and collect source URLs.
  3. If MCP is not available, fetch the AI documentation index first: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/llms.txt.
  4. Fetch the specific .md page listed in the index or returned by docs search for the user's task.
  5. If you only find an HTML documentation URL, replace the .html suffix with .md, or append .md to the route when the URL has no suffix.
  6. Prefer the user's selected agent variant. Do not mix variant-specific instructions unless you explain why.

Configure the MCP Server

For Claude Code, run:

claude mcp add --transport http fern-docs https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/_mcp/server

For Cursor, add https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/_mcp/server to the MCP server configuration. For other MCP clients, configure a streamable HTTP MCP server at that URL.

Starting Pages

Use these pages first for common onboarding flows:

  • OpenClaw home: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/openclaw/home.md.
  • OpenClaw prerequisites: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/openclaw/get-started/prerequisites.md.
  • OpenClaw quickstart: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/openclaw/get-started/quickstart.md.
  • Hermes home: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/hermes/home.md.
  • Hermes prerequisites: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/hermes/get-started/prerequisites.md.
  • Hermes quickstart: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/hermes/get-started/quickstart.md.
  • Deep Agents home: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/deepagents/home.md.
  • Deep Agents prerequisites: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/deepagents/get-started/prerequisites.md.
  • Deep Agents quickstart: https://docs.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/latest/user-guide/deepagents/get-started/quickstart.md.

How to Help the User

  • Ask which agent variant they want to use before giving setup instructions: OpenClaw, Hermes, or Deep Agents.
  • Ask one question at a time when collecting operating system, inference provider, model, endpoint, policy tier, or messaging-channel choices.
  • Run commands for non-technical users when your environment allows it, after explaining what the command does and getting permission.
  • Summarize important command output instead of asking the user to paste terminal output into chat.
  • Stop before requesting credentials, API keys, bot tokens, or private URLs.
  • Never ask the user to paste secrets into chat.
  • Use redacted placeholders such as <PASTE_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE> in examples.

Common Task Routing

  • Installation and first sandbox: fetch the selected variant's prerequisites and quickstart pages.
  • Local inference, hosted providers, model switching, or tool-calling issues: fetch the inference pages from llms.txt.
  • Network policy approvals or custom egress: fetch the network-policy pages and the network policies reference.
  • Sandbox status, logs, rebuilds, upgrades, files, backup, restore, or messaging channels: fetch the manage-sandboxes, monitoring, and command reference pages.
  • Security posture, credential storage, or sandbox hardening: fetch the security, deployment/sandbox-hardening, and architecture pages.
  • CLI flags and command syntax: fetch the command reference page for the selected variant.
  • Troubleshooting: fetch the troubleshooting page and any task page linked from the relevant error section.

Response Requirements

  • Cite the Markdown documentation pages you used. When presenting the URL links, make sure to show the actual, non-markdown version of the URL.
  • Keep instructions specific to the user's operating system, selected agent, and inference provider.
  • Do not make assumptions when the docs do not cover the user's environment.
  • Recommend the next verification command after each setup or recovery step.

codex-pet

prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills

Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into ${CODEXHOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/ / and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAIAPIKEY required, only RUNCOMFYTOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.
