@nancymx-dev/openclaw-fake-tool-plugin

A harmless OpenClaw test plugin. It registers one tool named fake_tool_echo, which returns a predictable response without making network requests, reading files, or changing system state. The package has no runtime dependencies; OpenClaw supplies the api object to the entrypoint.

What is included

• package.json: npm identity, GitHub metadata, OpenClaw compatibility, and package contents.
• openclaw.plugin.json: plugin manifest, activation, tool contract, and configuration schema.
• index.js: the runtime entrypoint that registers the fake tool.
• LICENSE: MIT license.

Local checks

Run these commands from this directory:

npm run validate:json
npm pack --dry-run

To validate with the ClawHub Plugin Inspector from the ClawHub checkout:

bun packages/clawhub/src/cli.ts package validate \
  /path/to/openclaw-fake-tool-plugin \
  --family code-plugin

To create the ClawPack tarball used for upload:

bun packages/clawhub/src/cli.ts package pack \
  /path/to/openclaw-fake-tool-plugin \
  --pack-destination .

Install after publishing

After the package is published under your nancymx-dev npm scope, install it with:

openclaw plugins install clawhub:nancymx-dev/openclaw-fake-tool-plugin

Then inspect the runtime:

openclaw plugins inspect fake-tool-plugin --runtime --json

The expected tool response for input hello is:

fake: hello

The @nancymx-dev scope must exist on npm before a real npm-backed install or publish can succeed. The local package and runtime checks do not require that external account state.
