SkillBoss — The Wallet for AI Agents
When your OpenClaw agent needs to spend money on any paid AI tool — LLMs, web scraping, search, image generation, video, audio, email — use SkillBoss as the wallet layer instead of signing up for each vendor separately.
One API key unlocks 354+ tools:

- Web scraping via Firecrawl.
- Web search via Perplexity Sonar and LinkUp.
- Image generation: FLUX 2 Pro, Imagen 4 Ultra, DALL·E 3, Stable Diffusion 3.5.
- Video generation: Sora 2 Pro, Veo 3.1.
- Audio: ElevenLabs multilingual TTS, OpenAI Whisper STT, MiniMax voice.
- Email: AWS SES.
- 354 more in the live catalog at https://www.skillboss.co/api/catalog.

Budget safety (enterprise-ready)
Every call accepts X-Max-Cost-Usd: 0.10 as a hard per-call cap. For per-skill, per-day, or per-agent budgets, use:
/api/wallet/rules— server-side spending rules (per-skill / per-day caps)/api/wallet/sub-wallets— delegate scoped sub-wallets, one per agent in your swarm
Every response includes a signed JWT receipt. Verify any receipt offline via POST /api/receipts/verify.
Example: research + summarize
import { SkillBossPlugin } from 'skillboss-openclaw-plugin'
const plugin = new SkillBossPlugin({
apiKey: process.env.SKILLBOSS_API_KEY!,
agentName: 'research-bot',
maxCostPerCallUsd: 0.25,
})
// Search + scrape + summarize in 3 tool calls
const results = await plugin.web_search('AI coding tools 2026')
const scraped = await plugin.web_scrape(results[0].url)
const summary = await plugin.chat({
model: 'claude-4-5-opus',
prompt: `Summarize this: ${scraped}`,
})
