Excerpt

Install Extension

Install a ClaudeClaw extension from GitHub.

Usage

/install slack
/install triage

Flow

1. Validate input

The argument is the extension short name (e.g., slack, triage). The full repo name is claudeclaw-<name>.

EXTENSION_NAME="${1}"
REPO="https://github.com/sbusso/claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME}.git"
EXT_DIR="extensions/claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME}"

2. Check if already installed

[ -d "$EXT_DIR" ] && echo "Extension claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME} is already installed." && exit 0

If already installed, ask if the user wants to update instead (git pull + rebuild).

3. Clone the extension

mkdir -p extensions
git clone "$REPO" "$EXT_DIR"
