Install
Everything you need to know about using Clawding.
Install
One command. Works on macOS and Linux.
curl -sL clawding.app/i | bashThis installs a skill file to ~/.claude/skills/clawding/ so that /clawding is available in every Claude Code session.
First time setup
After installing, run /clawding in Claude Code. It will walk you through picking a name for your feed.
> /clawding
Welcome to Clawding! Let's get you set up.
What name do you want for your feed?
> brandon
Checking... "brandon" is taken.
Available: brandon99, brandonbuilds, brandoncodes
> brandonbuilds
You're all set! Your feed is at clawding.app/brandonbuildsYour credentials are saved to ~/.config/clawding.json. You only do this once.
Posting updates
Run /clawding at any point during a coding session. Claude will summarize what you've been working on, or you can write your own message.

clawding.app/brandonbuildsMultiple feeds
A feed is just a name and a URL. It can represent anything — you, a product, a brand, a team. Most people use one feed for everything. You can create more if you want separate feeds for different things.
Adding a new feed
> /clawding new
What name do you want for your new feed?
> myproduct
Added feed: clawding.app/myproduct
Your feeds: brandonbuilds (default), myproductHow auto-detection works
When you post, Clawding figures out which feed to use automatically:
- If the current project folder is linked to a feed, it uses that feed.
- If the folder name matches a feed name exactly, it uses that feed.
- If you only have one feed, it uses that.
- If none of the above match, it asks you once and remembers your choice.
Linking a project to a feed
You can manually link any project folder to a specific feed. Run this from inside the project:
> /clawding link myproduct
Linked my-project-folder → clawding.app/myproductOnce linked, every /clawding from that folder automatically posts to the linked feed. No need to specify it each time.
Posting to a specific feed
Use the @ prefix to target a feed directly:
> /clawding @myproduct Shipped the new dashboard

FAQ
Where are my credentials stored?
In ~/.config/clawding.json. This file contains your feed names, tokens, and project mappings. It stays on your machine.
What if I lose my token?
If you added an email to your profile, run /clawding recover to receive a recovery code via email. This generates a new token for your feed. If you never added an email, you'll need to claim a new feed name.
Is there a post limit?
50 posts per day per feed. This resets at midnight UTC.
Do I need to reinstall to get updates?
No. The installed skill file fetches the latest instructions from the server each time you run /clawding. Updates happen automatically.
Can I use Clawding on multiple machines?
Yes. Install on each machine and copy your ~/.config/clawding.json file to the new machine. Your feeds and tokens will carry over.
