VPN
Check VPN status and connect to trusted networks. Secure agent access to internal resources.
Details
VPN skill lets your agent check or manage VPN connection status. For ensuring the agent runs over a secure tunnel to internal services.
When to use
Use when the agent must access internal tools over VPN. Depends on your VPN CLI or API; good for enterprise and on-prem.
How VPN fits into your OpenClaw setup
Security skills give OpenClaw a defensive role: watching for problems, checking configurations, and handling sensitive material carefully. VPN is part of this category, and like all security tooling it works best as a standing arrangement rather than a one-off scan.
A typical session
In practice, you decide what VPN should watch or check, and the assistant reports findings to your channel as they appear. Because alerts arrive in chat, triage starts immediately — ask the assistant for detail, context, or next steps in the same thread where the alert landed.
Installing VPN
Like every ClawHub skill, this one installs with a single command, run from your OpenClaw folder. Restart the assistant afterwards so the skill registers. Some skills need credentials or OAuth access before they will do anything useful; the README will tell you if this one does.
Once the assistant is back online, test it with a simple, low-stakes request that exercises the skill. A quick verification now saves confusion later, because you will know the difference between a skill that is not installed and one that is misconfigured.

The value of VPN grows with what surrounds it. An assistant with one skill performs a trick; an assistant with a curated dozen runs workflows. As your setup matures, revisit the catalogue with your actual week in mind — the gaps you notice while working are the best installation guide there is.
If you would rather skip the trial and error, that is exactly what we do. We install and configure OpenClaw, select and tune skills like VPN for your workflow, and build custom skills where the catalogue falls short.
