Configurations

Msty Claw supports configuration for tools, skills, security controls, and containerized bot runtime.

MCP tools

Open Settings > Tools to configure MCP servers.

You can:

• Add a server with a name, command, and arguments
• Connect/disconnect servers
• Edit or remove saved servers
• Optionally add a Jina API key for web search

Skills

Msty Claw auto-discovers skills from:

• Personal skills: ~/.mstyclaw/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md
• Workspace skills: <workspace>/.mstyclaw/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md

Use skills to provide reusable workflows and domain-specific instructions.

Security and permissions

Open Settings > Security.

You can configure:

• Sender groups: who can message each bot
• Allowed folders: where bots can read/write
• Blocked patterns: sensitive files/folders that stay off-limits (for example .env, .ssh, and credential paths)

During tool calls, Msty Claw can prompt for Allow, Always, or Deny decisions on actions like command execution or file edits.

Workspace and runtime

Per bot, you can configure:

• Workspace mode: managed workspace or project folder
• Runtime: host or container (Docker/Podman)
• Terminal commands: on/off
• Container network: blocked/allowed
• Web access: on/off (container web access depends on network being allowed)

Ask Msty Claw to help configure things

You can ask Msty Claw to help set these up for you, for example:

• Install and connect an MCP server
• Create or install skills
• Propose safe permission settings
• Set up a bot runtime for host or container use

This can reduce manual setup work when you prefer guided configuration.
