Description

After renaming my GitHub account from dongsjoa-byte to xiaoyaner0201, I can no longer publish skills via the CLI or the web Import feature.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Have a ClawHub account linked to GitHub (original username: dongsjoa-byte)
  2. Rename GitHub account to xiaoyaner0201
  3. Run clawhub logout && clawhub login — succeeds, shows @dongsjoa-byte (stale)
  4. Run clawhub publish ./my-skill --slug my-skill --name 'My Skill' --version 1.0.0
  5. Error: GitHub account lookup failed

Expected behavior

  • clawhub login should update the stored username to the new GitHub username
  • clawhub publish should work after re-authentication

Actual behavior

  • clawhub whoami still shows the old username dongsjoa-byte
  • clawhub publish fails with GitHub account lookup failed
  • Web Import (clawhub.ai/import) also fails with Server Error Called by client

Root cause (guess)

ClawHub stores the GitHub username at registration/login time. When the username is renamed on GitHub, the stored username becomes stale. The publish flow likely calls the GitHub API with the old username, which returns a 404 (GitHub API doesn't redirect renamed usernames like the web UI does).

Environment

  • ClawHub CLI: v0.5.0
  • GitHub account: xiaoyaner0201 (renamed from dongsjoa-byte)
  • OS: macOS (arm64)

Workaround

None found. Logout + login doesn't refresh the username.
