# ๐Ÿš€ OpenClaw GodMode Skill > **Self-Orchestrating Multi-Agent Development Workflows for Claude Code** > > *You say WHAT, the AI decides HOW.* [![ClawHub](https://img.shields.io/badge/ClawHub-cc--godmode-blue)](https://clawhub.ai/skills/cc-godmode) [![Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/version-5.11.1-green)](./CHANGELOG.md) [![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue)](./LICENSE) [![OpenClaw](https://img.shields.io/badge/OpenClaw-compatible-orange)](https://openclaw.ai) [![Claude Code](https://img.shields.io/badge/Claude_Code-required-purple)](https://claude.ai/code) --- ## โš ๏ธ Important: Requirements ### ๐Ÿ”ง Claude Code Required This skill **requires [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)** (Anthropic's CLI agent). It will not work with the web interface or API alone. ### ๐Ÿ’ณ Paid Account Recommended GodMode spawns multiple sub-agents that consume tokens quickly. We **strongly recommend**: | Plan | Recommendation | |------|----------------| | Free | โŒ Not recommended (tokens exhaust very quickly) | | Pro ($20/mo) | โœ… Good for smaller projects | | **Max ($200/mo)** | โญ **Recommended** for heavy use | The multi-agent orchestration is powerful but token-intensive. With a free account, you'll hit limits within minutes. --- ## ๐Ÿ”€ Two Versions of GodMode ### This Repo: OpenClaw GodMode Skill **Optimized for [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai)** โ€” the AI agent framework that extends Claude Code with messaging, cron jobs, and more. - ๐Ÿ“ฆ Installable via ClawHub - ๐Ÿ”— Integrates with OpenClaw's skill system - ๐Ÿ’ฌ Works with Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord channels - โฐ Can be triggered via cron jobs ### Original: [ClawdBot-GodMode](https://github.com/cubetribe/ClawdBot-GodMode) **The standalone CLAUDE.md version** โ€” perfect for server administration from your local machine. - ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Ideal for managing VPS and remote servers - ๐Ÿ”ง Great for administering machines running OpenClaw - ๐Ÿ“ Documentation-first approach with excellent versioning - ๐Ÿš€ Battle-tested on multiple production servers **Both repos are valuable** โ€” choose based on your use case: - Running OpenClaw? โ†’ Use this skill - Managing servers via Claude Code locally? โ†’ Use the [original GodMode](https://github.com/cubetribe/ClawdBot-GodMode) --- ## โœจ What is GodMode? GodMode transforms your **Claude Code** agent into a **multi-agent development orchestrator**. Instead of manually managing every step of development, you simply describe what you want โ€” and a team of specialized AI agents figures out how to build it. This isn't just another coding assistant. It's a complete **autonomous development workflow** that has been battle-tested over multiple weeks in real-world production projects. ### ๐ŸŽฏ The Magic ``` You: "Add user authentication with JWT and refresh tokens" GodMode: *spawns @researcher to evaluate best practices* *@architect designs the system* *@builder implements it* *@validator + @tester run quality checks in parallel* *@scribe updates documentation* Result: Production-ready feature with tests, docs, and proper architecture. ``` --- ## ๐Ÿค– Meet the Team GodMode orchestrates **8 specialized agents**, each with a specific role: | Agent | Role | What They Do | |-------|------|--------------| | ๐Ÿ”ฌ **@researcher** | Knowledge Discovery | Web research, tech evaluation, best practices | | ๐Ÿ—๏ธ **@architect** | System Design | Architecture decisions, ADRs, system design | | ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ **@api-guardian** | API Lifecycle | Breaking change detection, versioning | | ๐Ÿ‘ท **@builder** | Implementation | Code writing, refactoring | | โœ… **@validator** | Code Quality | TypeScript, linting, security checks | | ๐Ÿงช **@tester** | UX Quality | E2E tests, visual regression, a11y | | ๐Ÿ“ **@scribe** | Documentation | Changelog, README, API docs | | ๐Ÿ™ **@github-manager** | GitHub Ops | Issues, PRs, releases, CI/CD | --- ## ๐Ÿ“ฆ Installation ### Via ClawHub (Recommended) ```bash clawdhub install cc-godmode ``` ### Manual Installation ```bash # Clone this repository git clone https://github.com/cubetribe/openclaw-godmode-skill.git # Copy to your OpenClaw skills directory cp -r openclaw-godmode-skill ~/.openclaw/skills/cc-godmode # Or for Clawdbot: cp -r openclaw-godmode-skill ~/.clawdbot/skills/cc-godmode # Verify installation ls ~/.openclaw/skills/cc-godmode/SKILL.md ``` --- ## ๐ŸŽฎ Usage Once installed, just describe what you want in natural language: ### New Feature ``` New Feature: Add user authentication with JWT ``` ### Bug Fix ``` Bug Fix: Login form validation not working ``` ### API Change ``` API Change: Add email field to User type ``` ### Research Task ``` Research: Best practices for React state management 2025 ``` ### Release ``` Prepare Release ``` --- ## ๐Ÿ”„ Workflows GodMode automatically selects the right workflow based on your request: ### ๐Ÿ†• New Feature (Full Pipeline) ``` You โ†’ @researcher* โ†’ @architect โ†’ @builder โ†’ [@validator + @tester] โ†’ @scribe (parallel) ``` ### ๐Ÿ› Bug Fix (Quick) ``` You โ†’ @builder โ†’ [@validator + @tester] โ†’ done ``` ### โš ๏ธ API Change (Critical Path) ``` You โ†’ @architect โ†’ @api-guardian โ†’ @builder โ†’ [@validator + @tester] โ†’ @scribe ``` ### ๐Ÿ”ฌ Research Only ``` You โ†’ @researcher โ†’ Report ``` *Agents marked with `*` are optional and context-dependent* --- ## ๐Ÿ† Why GodMode? ### Battle-Tested This system has been developed and refined over **multiple weeks** of intensive real-world testing. It's not theoretical โ€” it's proven to work on production projects. ### True Autonomy Unlike simple prompt chains, GodMode agents make intelligent decisions about: - Which agents to involve - When to parallelize tasks - How to handle failures and edge cases - What quality gates to apply ### Documentation-First Every change is documented. Every decision is recorded. The versioning and documentation workflow is **extremely reliable** โ€” crucial for maintaining production systems. ### Dual Quality Gates Every feature passes through **two independent quality checks** running in parallel โ€” because catching bugs early saves hours of debugging later. --- ## โš™๏ธ Requirements ### Required - **[Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)** โ€” Anthropic's CLI agent - **Paid Claude Account** โ€” Pro ($20) or Max ($200) recommended ### Required MCP Servers - `playwright` โ€” For @tester E2E testing - `github` โ€” For @github-manager operations ### Optional (Enhanced Features) - `lighthouse` โ€” Performance audits - `a11y` โ€” Accessibility testing - `memory` โ€” Context persistence across sessions Check your MCP status: ```bash openclaw mcp list # or claude mcp list ``` --- ## ๐Ÿ”’ Security This skill is **documentation-only** and contains no executable code: - โœ… No bash scripts that run automatically - โœ… No external API calls from the skill itself - โœ… No file modifications without explicit agent action - โœ… Full source transparency โ€” read every line - โœ… MIT licensed All orchestration happens through your existing Claude Code agent using standard tool calls. --- ## ๐Ÿ“š Documentation | Document | Description | |----------|-------------| | [SKILL.md](./SKILL.md) | Main skill documentation (loaded by OpenClaw) | | [docs/WORKFLOWS.md](./docs/WORKFLOWS.md) | Detailed workflow documentation | | [docs/AGENTS.md](./docs/AGENTS.md) | Complete agent specifications | | [docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md](./docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md) | FAQ and problem solving | | [docs/MIGRATION.md](./docs/MIGRATION.md) | Migrating from CLAUDE.md | --- ## ๐Ÿ”— Links - **Original GodMode:** [ClawdBot-GodMode](https://github.com/cubetribe/ClawdBot-GodMode) โ€” Standalone version for server administration - **OpenClaw:** [openclaw.ai](https://openclaw.ai) โ€” The AI agent framework - **ClawHub:** [clawhub.ai](https://clawhub.ai) โ€” Skill marketplace - **Claude Code:** [claude.ai/code](https://claude.ai/code) โ€” Anthropic's CLI agent --- ## ๐Ÿค Contributing Contributions are welcome!

The results have been **sensational** โ€” tasks that used to take hours now complete in minutes with higher quality. > > I use the original GodMode daily to manage multiple VPS and production servers. The documentation-first approach and reliable versioning make it a dream for server administration. This OpenClaw version brings the same power to the OpenClaw ecosystem. > > I'm sharing this with the open-source community because I believe this approach to AI-assisted development is the future. Try it, break it, improve it, and let's build something amazing together. > > **Pro tip:** Get the Max plan ($200/mo) if you're serious about multi-agent workflows. The token headroom makes all the difference. > > โ€” Dennis @ [cubetribe](https://github.com/cubetribe) --- **Built with ๐Ÿš€ by humans and Claude Code working together**
