HomeButler: Zero-token homelab management for OpenClaw agents

What HomeButler does

HomeButler is a skill for OpenClaw agents that enables homelab management through natural language commands. The tool requires no API keys or tokens and runs entirely locally, keeping all operations within your network.

Installation and technical details

Install the skill with one command:

clawhub install Higangssh/homebutler

The tool is distributed as a single Go binary.

Available commands

Once installed, your OpenClaw agent can execute these homelab management tasks:

• "Install uptime-kuma" → deploys via docker compose
• "Status of all servers" → performs multi-node check over SSH
• "Restart nginx" → executes the restart command
• "Uninstall vaultwarden" → stops the service while preserving data

Use case

This tool is for developers who maintain homelabs and want to manage infrastructure through their OpenClaw agent without exposing services to external APIs.
