Setup & Installation
openclaw skills install @autogame-17/code-stats
Or with the ClawHub CLI, for registry-managed skill folders outside a full OpenClaw workspace:
npx clawhub install code-stats
What This Skill Does
Counts files and lines of code in a local workspace, broken down by file extension. Takes an optional path argument, defaulting to the current directory.
Runs entirely locally with no external services, giving instant metrics without setting up a dedicated analytics tool.
When to use it
- Checking total line count before a code review
- Comparing project size across branches
- Identifying dominant languages in a mixed-language repo
- Estimating scope of an unfamiliar codebase
- Tracking growth after a major feature addition
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.
INPUT
User asks: How large is this project and what languages does it use?
AGENT
- 1Run code-stats against the workspace root
- 2Parse the returned JSON for files and lines totals
- 3Extract the byExt map to identify language distribution
- 4Format the data into a readable summary
OUTPUT
Project contains 284 files and 19,043 lines of code. TypeScript (.ts, .tsx) makes up 58% of files, followed by CSS at 12%.
