# Set Agent Skills Allowlist

`PUT /api/agents/{agent_id}/skills/allowlist`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.maritime.sh` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.maritime.sh/api/agents/{agent_id}/skills/allowlist`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Set the per-agent skill toggle state inside the running container.

Openclaw: writes agents.list[id=main].skills (a whitelist) into
openclaw.json; takes effect on the next `skills list` enumeration.
Hermes: translates the enabled-allowlist into hermes's native
`skills.disabled` blacklist in ~/.hermes/config.yaml (disabled =
installed minus allowlist; null allowlist clears it). Hermes reads
the config fresh on each skill lookup, so no restart either way.

## Request body

- SkillAllowlistBody
  - `allowlist` string[], nullable

## Response `200`
