The Agent Toolkit — OpenClaw Hack Day

Build the OpenClaw skills that should exist but don't. OpenClaw hit 160K+ GitHub stars by becoming the go-to framework for local AI agents. Its skill system lets you wrap any API into an agent capability in minutes. But here's the thing: the ecosystem is still young. Thousands of useful skills don't exist yet. This is a full-day build sprint where everyone ships a working, publishable OpenClaw skill to ClawHub by demo time. When: March 25, 2026 | 9:30 AM - 6:30 PM PDT Where: AWS Builder Loft (Please bring physical ID) Who: Hosted by Adam Chan, HackerSquad Presented by: The Builders Collective What You're Building Pick any API or service you want to integrate with OpenClaw. It could be: The constraint: by 7:00 PM, you have a working skill published to ClawHub that the 160K+ user community can actually install and use. Why This Matters For you: You ship something real. Your name on a skill in the fastest-growing agent ecosystem. Hands-on experience with OpenClaw's architecture and sponsor APIs you might not otherwise access. Plus you get to work on something you actually think should exist. For the ecosystem: Real, production-ready integrations that make OpenClaw more useful. Not demos or proofs-of-concept—skills that ship. For sponsors: Their APIs get integrated into OpenClaw by developers who know what they're doing. Real integrations that solve real problems, not just marketing demos. Format Philosophy One clear direction, wide creative freedom. Everyone is building OpenClaw skills, but what your skill does is completely up to you. This is deep work, thoughtful experimentation, quiet momentum. Not prompt-chasing. Not idea juggling. Pick one integration, understand the API, build something that works, and ship it. Work solo or find collaborators—your call. Schedule What You'll Have Access To What You Need to Bring Required: Optional but helpful: If you hit setup issues before the event, we'll have a Slack channel open for troubleshooting. Judging Criteria Judges will evaluate on four factors: 1. Usefulness (35%) Would real developers install this skill? Does it solve an actual problem or unlock new agent capabilities? Is it something the community needs? 2. Technical Execution (25%) Code quality, error handling, production-readiness. Does it gracefully handle edge cases? Is the code clean and maintainable? 3. API Integration (25%) How effectively did you use sponsor APIs? Is the integration creative? Does it take advantage of what makes the API powerful? 4. Polish & Publishing & Demo (15%) Is it actually published to ClawHub with good documentation? Does the README explain what the skill does, how to install it, and include usage examples? Can someone else actually use this? Who Should Come This is for developers who want to ship something real, not just talk about ideas. You might be: All experience levels welcome, but you should be comfortable with JavaScript/TypeScript and familiar with basic API integration concepts. We're keeping attendance around 30 people to maintain quality. Why Hack Day? There's something about having 7 hours, a clear goal, and a room full of other builders that makes you actually ship. No endless planning. No "I'll finish it this weekend." You build it, you publish it, you demo it, you're done. Plus: Ready to ship? Register below and we'll see you on the 25th. Bring your best ideas and your shipping energy.
