What it does
Project Bootstrap Repo Onboarding is a repo-specific onboarding planner for GitHub-heavy teams using OpenClaw. It performs read-only stack detection across common project types (Node, Python, Rust, Go, Java, and more), proposes the right setup and validation commands for that stack, checks for a missing AGENTS.md governance file, and flags sensitive files by filename only — without ever reading their contents.
The result is a structured handoff report that gets your OpenClaw agents oriented in an unfamiliar codebase quickly and safely, without guesswork or accidental exposure of secrets.
Use cases
- Onboard OpenClaw agents into a new or inherited repository quickly.
- Detect stack and recommend the right setup/validation commands before coding begins.
- Identify missing AGENTS.md governance files before agents start work.
- Flag sensitive files by name (not content) during safe repo reconnaissance.
- Generate a structured repo handoff report for consultants and contractors.
Example usage
python3 scripts/repo_onboarding.py --repo /path/to/repo --json
Requirements
- OpenClaw v2026.x or later
- No external API keys required
- Python 3 standard library only — no pip installs
- Works with any OpenRouter-supported or local model
QA and security
This skill has been reviewed and cleared for release through the GetAgentIQ release pipeline with Viper QA and Warlock security sign-off. Read-only, stdlib-only, no command execution, no shell, no network, and sensitive files are flagged by filename only — contents are never read.
