Your AI Agents Will Be 100X More Powerful With This Skill

0:00This skill for your AI agent gives it access to 55 different websites without the use of an API key. So, what we're talking about is no authentication, no developer accounts, no headaches, and you get access to these websites without the use of an API key all through your Chrome browser. So, you just install this one skill. I have it linked down below. It is on GitHub right now. And your Open Claw agent can browse Twitter, search YouTube, scroll Reddit, check stock prices on Yahoo Finance, read Hacker News, post on social media, and we are just scratching the surface here. 55 plus platforms all from natural language commands. And this thing has already gotten over 150 stars in just 4 days. So, people are already excited

0:47about. This fills a huge demand and need from having to go to all these websites, get the API key, and give them to your AI agent. This solves that problem. I'm going to explain why this matters so much. So, if you've ever tried to connect your AI agent to like any social media platform or third-party website, it's a pain in the butt. You have to go sign up for a developer account, then you have to apply for API access, which if you're using like the TikTok API, that could take months. So, it could take a while, which we don't have time to wait in this AI space. Then after that, you have to figure out the OAuth tokens and refresh tokens, and then the rate limits of all this technical stuff that honestly just makes you want to pull your hair out and be done with it. Don't even get me started on the Twitter

1:32API. That's a huge other video we could make, you know, a whole in video about that. It's just the fact that this fills a demand is a beautiful thing. I highly suggest taking out the repo down below. You know, and by the time you're done getting through all of this with connecting all these different APIs, most of these APIs have strict rate limits. So, if you do get approved and you do get to use the app, you get limited. So, you can make only certain a number of requests per hour or per day, and some platforms don't even have a public API at all. So, getting programmatic access to Instagram or TikTok can take a while. So, this developer, Nashu, came up with a completely different approach. Instead of using APIs, this skill uses your

2:17Chrome browser's login session. So, if you think about it, when you're logged into Twitter in a Chrome browser, your browser already has session cookie that proves you're you. This skill basically says, "Hey, I'm going to reuse that session cookie to make requests as you." No API key needed because you're already authenticated through the browser. It's elegant, and it's built in Rust, so it's blazingly fast. The entire binary is 4.2 megabytes with zero runtime dependencies. You just download it, and it works. I'm going to walk you through what platforms we're talking about here, because the list is 55 different websites, and it would take a while to go through them all, but it covers all the main ones. For social media media, you have X. You have 24 different commands through there. You can search,

3:03post, tweet, read your timeline, check trending topics, view bookmarks, like posts, follow people, all through your agent. And that, you know, I'm just saying, be careful with that cuz you don't know when your agent's posting, but that's pretty cool. Real quick, before we keep going, if you're watching this and you want to actually build with some of these tools, not just watch videos about them, then you're going to want to check out our community down below, Shipping School. We have a full Cloud Code course, a full Open Cloud course, and [music] four live bootcamps every single week, where we actually help you get set up from scratch. Like, actually set this thing up, not just watch a tutorial and figure it out by yourself. And we also provide one-on-one coaching, so you could book a call with me, we could share screens, and I can help you get Cloud Code or Open Cloud

3:49running on your machine. That's it, no fluff. I built this community because watching YouTube's only gets you so far. We launched it just 3 days ago and we have over 55 members. You need people around you who are actually building, people who hold you accountable, and coaches who can help you when you get stuck. I'll put the link in the description down below. Get in now before the price goes up. Also, you have Reddit with 15 commands, you know, hot posts, front page, search any Reddit, search any search any subreddit, you can upvote, save comment. He also have Facebook with 10 commands, Instagram with 14 commands, TikTok with 15 commands, and that's just covering social media basics. Then you have content platforms like YouTube. You could search videos and get transcripts.

4:34Hacker News, you could pull top stories, new stories, show stories, ask stories, job listings, dev.to, Lobsters, Stack Overflow, Wikipedia, arXiv, and academic papers. Then you've got news platforms, BBC News headlines, Bloomberg with 10 different commands for markets, economics, tech, politics, Google News, Google Search, Google Trends. And then here's where it gets more wild. You've also got financial platforms like Yahoo Finance for stock quotes. You got Xueqiu, which is a Chinese stock platform. And you've got desktop app control, Cursor, Notion, ChatGPT Desktop, Discord, and even Codex. Your AI agent can control these desktop apps through natural language commands. Ask

5:19Cursor to refactor a function, search your Notion for meeting notes, send a message in Discord, all from OpenClaw. And wait, there's more. There's a bunch of Chinese platforms, too. Bilibili, Zhihu, Xiaohongshu, Weibo, Douban, and We Read. If you're doing any kind of international research or content creation, this opens up a massive amount of data that's was basically impossible to access programmatically before. So, now let me explain how you actually use this because it's surprisingly simple. First, you need to install open cli-rs. It's a CLI tool, command line interface. That's the base binary. Then, you install this skill into your open claw or cloud code setup. There are two ways to do it. You could just tell your AI

6:04agent, "Help me install this skill." and paste in the GitHub URL, and the agent will install it for you. Not very complicated. Or, you could do it manually with npx skills add and the repo URL. Once it's installed, you restart the skill and it's active. So, the one requirement is that Chrome needs to be open and you need to be logged into whatever platform you want the agent to access. So, be careful here. I wouldn't be logged into any banking institutions, just my two cents there. If you want to browse Twitter, you need to be logged in to Twitter or X, whatever you want to call it. That makes sense, right? The skill is basically just reusing your session cookies. It's not hacking in. It's literally just piggybacking on the fact you're already logged in. And then, you just talk to your agent naturally. Say, "Search

6:50YouTube for open claw tutorials." and it does it. You say, "What's trending on Twitter right now?" and it pulls the trending topics. You say, "Get the top 20 stories on Hacker News." and boom, there they are in a nice clean format. This is very simple to use and I like that it's not complicated. You should be using this. So, for example, for finance, you could say, "Check the price of Apple stock." and it pulls it from Yahoo Finance. The agent figures out what open cli command to run and then executes it. It gives you the results. So, let me talk about why this is a huge thing for specific use cases because that's what matters, right? That's the main thing. How do you actually use something like this? So, use case number one, content research, obviously. So, if you're a content creator, your agent can ask and all of these content platforms

7:37and dozens of others in addition to YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter, and then they could find trending topics, popular posts, engagement patterns, all without you spending hours scrolling through feeds. Who does that anymore, anyways? Imagine waking up and your agent has already compiled a list of top trending topics in your niche across five different platforms. It's pretty nice. That's your content calendar done before your first cup of coffee. Use case number two is competitive analysis. Your agent can monitor competitors on Twitter, check their Reddit activity, see what they're posting on LinkedIn, see what they ordered at McDonald's yesterday, track their YouTube content, all automatically. Before this skill, each one of those platforms would need its own API integration. Now, it's just one skill for you. So, use case number three is social media management. Your agent can now post to Twitter, engage

8:23with replies, share content across platforms. If you're managing multiple social accounts for a business, this is huge. Instead of logging into five different platforms every day, your agent handles the distribution. Use case number four is market research. Pulling stock prices from Yahoo Finance, read Bloomberg headlines, scan Reddit investing communities, check Twitter for market sentiment, all in one conversation with your agent. I mean, that is crazy. For anyone in finance or trading, this is like having a research assistant that never sleeps. Use case number five is international research. Those Chinese platforms I mentioned, Bilibili alone has over 300 million active users. Zhihu is basically China's Quora. Xiaohongshu is a basically their

9:10Instagram. If you're building anything that touches the Chinese market or doing research into trends, that is a start in Asia. This skill opens up a world of data that almost was impossible to access before. If you're struggling to keep up with content, well, I'm about to save you about 40 days worth of work. I built [music] something called Content Machine. It's 10 AI agents that run on the Open Claw orchestration, and they handle everything. Scripts, thumbnails, X posts, [music] blogs, outreach, clips, newsletters, all of it. So, I went from 1,000 subscribers to 4,000 subscribers on YouTube in 7 days using this exact system. Every single morning, I wake up and the content's already done. I spend maybe 15, 20 minutes reviewing and

9:56approving them and I move on with my day. It works for [music] any niche, fitness, finance, real estate, marketing, whatever you're building and it is 100% completely customizable to your use case. So, you get [music] the mission control dashboard, all of the cron jobs, everything I've built over the last 40 days helping me gain more and more people to subscribe and join the community. So, you plug in your own thing and it molds it to you, it learns how you talk and it writes so it doesn't sound like AI slop. $97 one time, it's not a subscription. I'll put the link down below and you'll thank me later. Now, I want to re-real about some of this because you think it can't be this easy. There are some limitations. I will always keep it honest and up front with you. First, this does require Chrome to

10:42be open, which means it works best on a desktop machine or a server that has Chrome running. If you're running OpenClaw on a headless VPS without a browser, you need to set up something like a virtual display. That's doable, but that's an extra setup. The second thing is since you're reusing your browser session, anything the agent does on the platforms is happening as you. So, a little scary. So, if you tell it the agent to post a tweet and that tweet is going from your account, if you tell it to post on Instagram, those likes are from your account. So, be thoughtful about what you let the agent do autonomously versus what you review first. I always recommend having an approval step for anything that posts publicly, but whatever you want to do. The third thing is rate limits still technically apply at the platform level.

11:27Twitter might notice if you're making hundreds of requests per a through the browser session. The tool is designed to be reasonable about this, but don't go crazy trying to scrape a million posts. Use it like a human would browse, just faster and more organized. But even with those caveats, this is one of the most practical skills I've seen drop for open claw because the number one complaint I hear from people building agents is, "How do I connect my agent to my X account?" And the answer used to be go set up a API, deal with the tokens, handle the rate limits, write the integration code. Now the answer is just install this one skill and talk to your agent. Honestly, I think it's just the beginning and a great step in the right direction. The repo is open source, which means the community is going to add support for even more platforms over time. Someone's probably already working on adding Pinterest, Threads, WhatsApp,

12:14and who knows what else. The architecture is extensible. Every new platform that gets added makes the skill more valuable for anyone using it. And I mean, come on, 152 stars in 4 days? It's getting traction. That tells you something, right? People are excited about it because it solves a real problem that everybody has been dealing with. And shout out to Nashu. Nashu, shout out. You're doing great, buddy. For anyone building this in Rust instead of Python or JavaScript, I mean, hands off to you. That 4.7 megabyte binary with zero dependencies is exactly how tools should be built. No pip install, no npm install, no dependency conflicts. Just download it and run. So if you want to learn how to set up your own agent with skills like this, that's exactly what we do in the community. We've had 170 people join in 17 days, and it is a huge blessing to work with people in the

12:59community that are geared towards working towards the same thing. So we do six live calls a week. I put a link in the description if you want to be building along other people building AI agents. You know, if you think about where we're even going and where we were maybe 6 months ago, if you wanted your agent to check Twitter, you needed the Twitter API. That cost $200 a month for access. If you wanted Reddit data, you needed the Reddit API. YouTube, you needed the YouTube API. Each one was a separate project, separate credentials, separate code. Now it's just one install in a single conversation. That's what progress looks like. The bottom line is if you're running any kind of AI agent and you want to actually interact with the internet the way you do, the way browse, you know, the way you browse Twitter or check Reddit or search YouTube, this skill is probably one of

13:45the most important skills you need to install this month. One skill that covers 55 platforms, launched 4 days ago, 152 stars, zero API keys. That's it. So if you're looking to build something out like this, you could definitely join the community. I would get to teach you how to integrate something like this. And if you haven't subscribed to the channel already, we release four to six videos every day, dropping GitHub repos, dropping open call use cases, and breaking AI news. We'll see you guys in the next video. Check out that repo down below. Bye-bye.
