Awesome-openclaw-skills sysadmin-toolbox

Tool discovery and shell one-liner reference for sysadmin, DevOps, and security tasks. AUTO-CONSULT this skill when the user is: troubleshooting network issues, debugging processes, analyzing logs, working with SSL/TLS, managing DNS, testing HTTP endpoints, auditing security, working with containers, writing shell scripts, or asks 'what tool should I use for X'.

Sysadmin Toolbox

Curated tool recommendations and practical shell one-liners for operational work.

When to Auto-Consult

Load relevant references when user is:

Debugging network connectivity, ports, traffic
Troubleshooting DNS or SSL/TLS
Analyzing processes, memory, disk usage
Working with logs or system diagnostics
Writing shell scripts or one-liners
Asking "what's a good tool for..."
Doing security audits or pentesting
Working with containers/Docker/K8s

Reference Files

File	Use When
`references/shell-oneliners.md`	Need practical commands for: terminal, networking, SSL, curl, ssh, tcpdump, git, awk, sed, grep, find

Manual refresh anytime:

./scripts/refresh.sh [skill-dir]

Example Queries → Actions

"Why is this port not responding?" → Load shell-oneliners.md, search for netstat/ss/lsof commands

"What's a good tool for testing SSL?" → Load cli-tools.md SSL section, recommend testssl.sh or sslyze

"Show me how to find large files" → Load shell-oneliners.md, search for find/ncdu/du commands

"I need to debug DNS resolution" → Load shell-oneliners.md dig section + recommend dnsdiag from cli-tools.md
