Manage Mounts (NanoClaw)

A skill for viewing, adding, removing, and resetting the host directories that NanoClaw agent containers may access.

What it does

  • Reads the mount allowlist at ~/.config/nanoclaw/mount-allowlist.json and summarizes it clearly: which directories are allowed and whether each is read-only or read-write.
  • When adding a directory, it validates that the path exists, asks whether it should be read-write or read-only (the safer default), and writes the config via setup/index.ts --step mounts --force.
  • Supports removing individual entries or resetting everything with --empty.
  • Explains how changes take effect: newly spawned containers pick them up automatically, and a running group can be refreshed with ncl groups restart --id <group-id>.

Who it's for

  • Teams running agent containers with NanoClaw who frequently adjust host directory access.
  • Anyone who wants to grant agents least-privilege access to only the folders they need.
  • Users who would rather not hand-edit a JSON config file.

Examples

  1. "Show me the current mount allowlist" → reads the config and lists each directory with its read-only/read-write status.
  2. "Give agents write access to ~/projects/web" → validates the path and adds an entry with allowReadWrite: true.
  3. "Clear all mounts and apply it to the group that's already running" → resets with --empty, then restarts the group via ncl groups restart.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the .claude/skills/manage-mounts folder from the GitHub repo nanocoai/nanoclaw into my ~/.claude/skills/manage-mounts/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r nanoclaw/.claude/skills/manage-mounts ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git
  3. Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r nanoclaw/.claude/skills/manage-mounts ~/.claude/skills/
  5. The commands require running from the NanoClaw repo root with pnpm available (for tsx); run pnpm install there first.
  6. Restart Claude Code and try asking "show the mount allowlist" to trigger the skill.
