🏗️ Coder Workspaces OpenClaw Skill - ClawHub
Do you want your AI agent to automate Coder Workspaces workflows? This free skill from ClawHub helps with coding agents & ides tasks without building custom tools from scratch.
What this skill does
Manage Coder workspaces and AI coding agent tasks via CLI. List, create, start, stop, and delete workspaces. SSH into workspaces to run commands. Create and monitor AI coding tasks with Claude Code, Aider, or other agents.
Install

Coder Workspaces
Manage Coder workspaces and AI coding agent tasks via the coder CLI.
Note: Commands execute within isolated, governed Coder workspaces — not the host system.
Setup
Before using coder CLI, configure authentication:
-
Install the CLI from Coder CLI docs
-
Set environment variables:
export CODER_URL=https://your-coder-instance.com export CODER_SESSION_TOKEN=<your-token> # Get from /cli-auth -
Test connection:
coder whoami
Workspace Commands
coder list # List workspaces
coder list --all # Include stopped
coder list -o json # JSON output
coder start <workspace>
coder stop <workspace>
coder restart <workspace> -y
coder delete <workspace> -y
coder ssh <workspace> # Interactive shell
coder ssh <workspace> -- <command> # Run command in workspace
coder logs <workspace>
coder logs <workspace> -f # Follow logs
AI Coding Tasks
Coder Tasks runs AI agents (Claude Code, Aider, etc.) in isolated workspaces.
Creating Tasks
coder tasks create --template <template> --preset "<preset>" "prompt"
- Template: Required. List with
coder templates list - Preset: May be required. Try without first. If creation fails with "Required parameter not provided", get presets with
coder templates presets list <template> -o jsonand use the default. If no default, ask user which preset.
Managing Tasks
coder tasks list # List all tasks
coder tasks logs <task-name> # View output
coder tasks connect <task-name> # Interactive session
coder tasks delete <task-name> -y # Delete task
Task States
- Initializing: Workspace provisioning (timing varies by template)
- Working: Setup script running
- Active: Agent processing prompt
- Idle: Agent waiting for input
Troubleshooting
- CLI not found: See Coder CLI docs
- Auth failed: Verify CODER_URL and CODER_SESSION_TOKEN are set, then run
coder login - Version mismatch: Reinstall CLI from your Coder instance
