Agent Tools

This page lists the built-in tools exposed by Lobu workers.

Core Runtime Tools

From packages/worker/src/openclaw/tools.ts.

Tool	What it does	Typical use
`read`	Reads file contents from the workspace.	Inspect source/config/log files before editing.
`write`	Writes full file contents.	Create new files or replace file content entirely.
`edit`	Applies targeted text replacements in a file.	Small, surgical code changes.
`bash`	Runs shell commands in the workspace (policy-controlled).	Build, test, lint, run scripts, inspect runtime state.
`grep`	Searches file contents with pattern matching.	Find symbols, config values, or error strings quickly.
`find`	Finds files/directories by path patterns.	Locate files across large repositories.
`ls`	Lists files/directories.	Quick workspace structure discovery.

Lobu Custom Tools

From packages/worker/src/openclaw/custom-tools.ts.

Tool	What it does	Typical use
`UploadUserFile`	Uploads a generated file back to the user thread.	Share reports, charts, documents, exports, media.
`ScheduleReminder`	Schedules one-time or recurring follow-up tasks.	Deferred tasks and recurring automations.
`CancelReminder`	Cancels a scheduled reminder by ID.	Stop previously scheduled jobs.
`ListReminders`	Lists pending reminders and schedule IDs.	Audit or pick reminder to cancel/update.

`InstallExtension`	Creates a settings link to install one extension safely.	Guided skill/MCP install with user confirmation.
`GetSettingsLink`	Creates a settings link with optional prefilled config.	Ask user to add keys, grants, skills, or MCP config.
`GetSettingsLinkForDomain`	Creates a settings link focused on domain grants.	Resolve proxy/domain-blocked network requests.
`GenerateAudio`	Converts text to speech and returns audio.	Voice responses or spoken summaries.
`GetChannelHistory`	Fetches prior messages in the conversation thread.	Recover context from earlier discussion.

`CreateIntegration`	Creates API-key based integration definitions.	Add custom services not covered by built-in OAuth flows.
`MemorySearch`	Full-text search across memory files.	Retrieve context beyond summarized MEMORY.md entries.

Additional Tool Sources

Beyond built-ins, agents can also receive tools from:

OpenClaw plugins (pluginsConfig) loaded at runtime
Configured MCP servers (proxied through the gateway)

So the effective toolset for a given agent is:

Core runtime tools
Lobu custom tools
Plugin tools (if enabled)
MCP-provided tools (if configured)
