Utility Official

Self Customize

Built-in workflow for adding packages, MCP servers, instructions, or reviewable code changes to an agent.

What it does

Updates memory and standing instructions
Requests admin approval before installing packages or MCP servers
Delegates source-code changes to a separate builder agent
Keeps code changes small and reviewable
Separates one-off work from persistent customization

What you'll need

NanoClaw installed and running
An admin available for approval-gated changes

Availability

Built into every agent container

Every NanoClaw agent container includes the self-customize skill. It routes each kind of customization through the right boundary. Memory and standing instructions can be updated directly. Package and MCP changes require admin approval. Source-code changes go to a separate builder agent so the result stays reviewable.

This is a built-in instruction skill. There is no install command.
