Integration with OpenClaw

OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant you run on your own devices. It supports integration with multiple common channels (such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, etc.) and major large language model providers (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google AI, etc.), allowing users to use natural language to have AI agents perform various tasks locally.

ezBookkeeping provides an Agent Skill that allows AI agents to operate ezBookkeeping through the HTTP API. This skill is also compatible with OpenClaw, which can invoke to perform tasks such as recording transactions and querying data in ezBookkeeping.

Install OpenClaw

Please refer to Install - OpenClaw for installation instructions.

Warning

Use third-party large language model services with caution, as your private data will be sent to external model providers.

Install ezBookkeeping Skill

The OpenClaw-compatible skill for ezBookkeeping is available on ClawHub.

1. You can install it directly using the ClawHub CLI:

npx clawhub@latest install ezbookkeeping

2. Or download it from the following page:

https://clawhub.ai/mayswind/ezbookkeeping

Configure ezBookkeeping API Tools

Unlike MCP (Model Context Protocol), ezBookkeeping API Tools use an API token. You must first create an API token in ezBookkeeping. For details, see API - Usage.

You can create a .env file in your home directory that defines the two environment variables EBKTOOL_SERVER_BASEURL for the ezBookkeeping server address and EBKTOOL_TOKEN for the API token, for example:

EBKTOOL_SERVER_BASEURL="https://{YOUR_HOST_ADDRESS}"
EBKTOOL_TOKEN="{YOUR-API-TOKEN}"

If you do not configure these environment variables in advance, OpenClaw will prompt you to enter them during the conversation. For more details on using the ezBookkeeping API Tools, refer to the API - API Tool Script documentation.

TIP

Since ClawHub does not currently support packaging PowerShell scripts as part of a skill, when using OpenClaw on Windows, you need to manually download the ebktools.ps1 script and place it in the scripts directory of the ezBookkeeping skill (e.g., C:\Users\{YOUR_USERNAME}\.openclaw\skills\ezbookkeeping\scripts\).
