AskAI OpenClaw Skill

Give your OpenClaw agent one secure route to ChatGPT, Claude and DeepSeek through your AskAI.free account. The skill discovers the live model catalogue, sends chat requests and checks token usage when needed.

AskAI.freeOpenClaw skill v1.0.0

You: Use AskAI to compare the tradeoffs in this API design.

Agent: I found the available AskAI models and selected ChatGPT 5.6 Sol for the review.

The interface is compact and backwards-compatible. The main risk is ambiguous retry behavior: define idempotency for writes and return a stable error code for conflicts...

Install from ClawHub

openclaw skills install @henrick86/askai-free

This owner-qualified command installs the verified ClawHub release into your current OpenClaw workspace. Add --global only if every local agent should share it.

What the AskAI skill gives your agent

The release is a small, readable instruction bundle. It uses curl and the official AskAI API rather than installing an opaque runtime or giving the model access to your account settings.

Live model discovery

Checks /v1/models and selects only a model currently available to your plan.

Multi-model chat

Sends OpenAI-compatible chat requests to available ChatGPT, Claude and DeepSeek models.

Usage checks

Reads /v1/usage when you ask about the plan or when remaining tokens need diagnosis.

Safer key handling

Requires ASKAI_API_KEY and tells the agent never to print it, put it in a URL or send it elsewhere.

Bounded retries

Explains how to handle rate limits, unavailable models and insufficient tokens without retry loops.

Clear scope

Does not change subscriptions, browse private media, generate images or perform destructive account actions.

AskAI OpenClaw skill questions

What does the skill do?

It gives OpenClaw instructions for three authenticated AskAI endpoints: list models, create a chat completion and check token usage. The agent returns the model's answer without exposing unnecessary account metadata.

Is this the same as the AskAI CLI?

No. The AskAI CLI is a terminal command you operate directly. This skill lets an OpenClaw agent decide when and how to call the AskAI API for an eligible request.

Does it work during the free trial?

No. Trials do not receive API keys. Pro and Max customers can create a key after their first successful subscription payment.

Which models can it call?

The skill queries the live catalogue before choosing. It can use the ChatGPT, Claude and DeepSeek chat models enabled for your AskAI plan.

Can I inspect it before installing?

Yes. The ClawHub listing exposes the complete SKILL.md, version history, requirements and security-audit state before installation.
