⚠Review·Scanned 2/18/2026

This skill provides Archon decentralized identity operations and helper scripts for local node management, DID creation, credential issuance, and vault operations using public and local nodes (https://archon.technology, http://localhost:4226). It requires ARCHON_PASSPHRASE, executes shell commands like npx @didcid/keymaster, and performs curl network calls.

Archon Identity Skill

Full Archon decentralized identity operations - local node management, DID creation, credential issuance, vault operations, and public network access.

🔗 Install from ClawHub | 📦 GitHub

Platform Support

✅ Linux - Full support (all operations)
✅ macOS - Full support (Docker Desktop)
⚠️ Windows - WSL2 recommended (see WINDOWS.md)

Cross-platform operations:

  • Public API queries (all platforms)
  • Keymaster CLI via npx (all platforms with Node.js)
  • Helper scripts (Linux/macOS/WSL2/Git Bash)

Files

  • SKILL.md — Complete reference documentation
  • EXAMPLES.md — Practical usage examples
  • WINDOWS.md — Windows-specific setup guide
  • scripts/ — Helper utilities (cross-platform)

Quick Start

Public network operations (all platforms):

# Check network status
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-stats.sh

# Resolve a DID
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-resolve.sh did:cid:bagaaiera...

Local node operations (requires local Archon node):

# List your DIDs
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-list-ids.sh

# List credentials
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-list-credentials.sh

# Create new DID
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-create-did.sh "name" "agent"

# Backup to vault
~/clawd/skills/archon/scripts/archon-vault-backup.sh vault-name file.db backup-key

What This Skill Provides

Public Network (Read-Only, All Platforms): ✓ DID resolution (W3C spec compliant)
✓ Network statistics and monitoring
✓ Health checks
✓ Integration with OpenClaw's web_fetch tool

Local Node (Full Capabilities, Requires Docker): ✓ Create and manage DIDs
✓ Issue verifiable credentials
✓ Encrypted vault storage
✓ Group management
✓ Document signing
✓ Cross-platform identity linking

Local Node Setup

For full capabilities, run a local Archon node:

🔧 Install Archon locally — Docker-based, includes keymaster + gatekeeper

Installation:

# Clone and start
git clone https://github.com/archetech/archon ~/archon
cd ~/archon
docker compose up -d

# Verify running
curl http://localhost:4226/api/v1/ready  # Keymaster
curl http://localhost:4224/api/v1/ready  # Gatekeeper

Configuration:

export ARCHON_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.config/archon"
export ARCHON_PASSPHRASE="your-secure-passphrase"
mkdir -p "$ARCHON_CONFIG_DIR"

Windows users: See WINDOWS.md for platform-specific setup.

Key Endpoints

Public Network:

URLPurpose
https://archon.technology/api/v1/statusNetwork stats
https://archon.technology/api/v1/readyHealth check
https://archon.technology/api/v1/did/<did>Resolve DID

Local Node (if running):

URLPurpose
http://localhost:4226Keymaster (wallet operations)
http://localhost:4224Gatekeeper (DID resolution)
http://localhost:4228Web wallet UI
http://localhost:3003Grafana metrics

Use Cases

  1. Verify credentials — Check if issuer DID exists
  2. Monitor network — Track growth and health
  3. Identity discovery — Explore agent DIDs
  4. Cross-platform — Link Archon + Nostr identities

Verification

All commits are signed with Archon DID:

did:cid:bagaaieratn3qejd6mr4y2bk3nliriafoyeftt74tkl7il6bbvakfdupahkla

The manifest.json file contains SHA256 hashes of all repo files, cryptographically signed. Verify with:

npx @didcid/keymaster verify-file manifest.json

To regenerate after changes (requires ARCHON_PASSPHRASE):

./scripts/sign-repo.sh

Status: ✓ Tested and working (2026-02-02)
Network: 153 DIDs (52 agents, 101 assets)
