MANDATORY security foundation for OpenClaw. Consolidate scattered API keys and credentials into a secure .env file with proper permissions. Use when setting up OpenClaw, migrating credentials, auditing security, or enforcing the .env standard. This is not optional β centralized credential management is a core requirement for secure OpenClaw deployments. Scans for credential files across common locations, backs up existing files, creates a unified .env with mode 600, validates security, and enforces best practices.

Credential Manager extends your AI assistant with the ability to mANDATORY security foundation for OpenClaw. Consolidate scattered API keys and credentials into a secure .env file with proper permissions. Use when setting up OpenClaw, migrating credentials, auditing security, or enforcing the .env standard. This is not optional β centralized credential management is a core requirement for secure OpenClaw deployments. Scans for credential files across common locations, backs up existing files, creates a unified .env with mode 600, validates security, and enforces best practices. Rather than leaving your conversation to handle this manually, you can ask your Claude agent directly β and it will take care of the task end-to-end, using Credential Manager as its underlying capability.
Credential Manager works across Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) β an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install Credential Manager once and it becomes available across all your AI clients. Whether you're working in Claude for focused sessions or Cursor for integrated workflows, the skill behaves consistently.
To install Credential Manager, copy the skill folder to `~/.claude/skills/credential-manager/` for use across all your projects, or `.claude/skills/credential-manager/` for a single project. Restart Claude and the skill is immediately active β invoke it with `/credential-manager` or just describe your goal and the AI will pick it up automatically.
Credential Manager has been installed 4,115 times, making it one of the more actively used skills in the Developer & DevOps category. The install rate suggests it solves a real, recurring need rather than a niche edge case. The source code is open on GitHub β you can inspect it, contribute fixes, or fork it to adapt the skill for your specific setup. Like all skills on DiscoverAISkills, it is free to install and use. The broader AI skills ecosystem continues to expand as developers contribute new capabilities across categories like developer tools, data analysis, writing, automation, and more.
Place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/credential-manager/ for personal use (all projects), or .claude/skills/credential-manager/ for project-specific use. Restart your AI client, then invoke with /credential-manager or let the AI discover it automatically.
Credential Manager supports Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw. It integrates seamlessly with these AI platforms to extend their capabilities.
Credential Manager is free to install. Check the repository for licensing information.
