What is the Remote OpenClaw MCP server?

Remote OpenClaw MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Remote OpenClaw directly instead of describing what you should do. Search 13,870+ MCP servers, 4,384+ agent skills, and plugins from your terminal or agent.

What you get

An MCP server that lets any AI agent — Claude Code, OpenClaw, Hermes, Codex, Cursor — search Remote OpenClaw directly from your editor: a directory of 13,870+ MCP servers, 4,384+ agent skills, and plugins.

What the assistant can call

Once Remote OpenClaw is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • search_mcp_servers — Find an MCP server for a task (databases, scraping, GitHub…)
  • search_skills — Find a reusable agent skill, with its install command
  • search_plugins — Find a plugin / marketplace package

Setting it up

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at remoteopenclaw on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Choosing this one

Among the search and retrieval options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Remote OpenClaw's toolset — search_mcp_servers, search_skills, search_plugins — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by aidevelopers2; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the remote openclaw mcp server does with a few real requests.
