Skill Loadout Manager

What it does

Installing more skills increases OpenClaw's system prompt size. Every installed skill contributes its description to the context window on every session start — even skills you haven't used in months.

Skill Loadout Manager lets you define named loadouts: curated subsets of skills for specific contexts. You switch to a loadout and only those skills are active. Everything else is installed but dormant.

Examples:

• coding — tools for writing, testing, reviewing code
• research — browsing, fact-checking, note synthesis
• ops — monitoring, cron hygiene, spend tracking
• minimal — just the essentials: memory, handoff, recovery
