Description:

The built-in weather skill is marked ready in openclaw skills list, but runtime execution does not successfully return weather data. When explicitly asking OpenClaw to use the weather skill, the run hits repeated tool failures (web_fetch, browser) and pairing-related gateway errors, then falls back to a text explanation saying it could not fetch weather information.

Environment:- Platform: macOS 26.1

  • Hardware: Apple M4, 24 GB
  • Runtime: Colima
  • NemoClaw: v0.0.4
  • OpenClaw: 2026.3.11
  • Sandbox: abc

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Connect to a healthy sandbox:
    nemoclaw abc connect
  2. Confirm the built-in weather skill is listed as ready:
    openclaw skills list
  3. Run:
    openclaw agent --agent main --local -m "Use the weather skill, not general knowledge, and tell me the current weather in San Francisco." --session-id weather-skill-test-2
sandbox@abc:~$ openclaw agent --agent main --local -m "Use the weather skill, not general knowledge, and tell me the current weather in San Francisco." --session-id weather-skill-test-2

I attempted to use the weather skill to get the current weather in San Francisco, but it appears that network requests are currently blocked in this sandbox environment. The weather skill relies on external services like wttr.in or Open-Meteo, and I'm unable to establish a connection to fetch the data.

If you'd like, I can try alternative approaches (such as using a web search for weather information), but please note that you specifically asked to use the weather skill rather than general knowledge sources. Let me know how you'd like to proceed!
sandbox@abc:~$ 

Actual:

The weather request does not successfully return weather data. Observed runtime output includes:

[tools] web_fetch failed: Invalid URL: must be http or https
