OpenClaw integration
OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI agent that you run yourself and reach through messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram, Discord and Signal. With the Mind Your Now plugin installed, your OpenClaw agent can read and change your tasks, calendar, habits, lists and more from any of those apps.
There are two parts, and you can use the first on its own:
- The plugin gives your agent Mind Your Now tools, using an API key.
- Pairing connects your agent to Kaia, so the two can pass work and messages to each other.
Step 1: Create an API key
- In Mind Your Now on a computer, go to Settings → API Keys.
- Click Create API Key.
- Enter a Name, for example "OpenClaw Agent".
- Under Permissions, check Full Agent Access.
- Click Create API Key, then copy the key. It is shown only once.
Step 2: Install the plugin
Install the plugin package, @mind-your-now/myn, into OpenClaw:
openclaw plugins install @mind-your-now/myn
Then add it to your OpenClaw configuration with your key:
plugins:
entries:
myn:
enabled: true
config:
apiKey: "your-myn-api-key"
baseUrl: "https://api.mindyournow.com" # optional; this is the default
The plugin only connects over HTTPS.
Step 3: Check it works
Send your agent a message from any connected app:
What's in Critical Now today?
It should answer with your current tasks.
Step 4 (optional): Pair your agent with Kaia
-
In Mind Your Now in a web browser, go to Settings → Kaia AI → Connected Agents and click Connect Agent.
-
Click Generate Invite Code. You get a code like
ABC-12345. It works once and expires shortly; the dialog shows the time. -
Ask your agent to pair, giving it the code:
Pair with Mind Your Now using invite code ABC-12345 -
Close the dialog. Your agent appears under Connected Agents as Connected, or Pending until pairing finishes. To remove it, use Disconnect.
Once paired, your agent can take tasks Kaia hands it, send her information, and act for you on things outside the app. Kaia replies only after you've allowed AI data sharing in Settings → Kaia AI. How much a paired agent can do depends on your Kaia plan.
The plugin's tools
The plugin adds 14 tools to your agent:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
myn_tasks | List, create, update, complete, archive and search tasks, habits and chores; build plans with ordered steps |
myn_debrief | Check, write and read Compass reports, and apply their suggested changes |
myn_calendar | List calendars and events; create, update, move and delete events |
myn_habits | Streaks, skips, habit chains, schedules and reminders |
myn_lists | Grocery and shopping lists |
myn_search | Search across tasks, events, notes and memories |
myn_timers | Countdowns, alarms and pomodoro sessions |
myn_memory | Remember, recall, search and forget Kaia's memories |
myn_profile | Your profile, goals and preferences |
myn_household | Household members, invites and chores |
myn_projects | Browse collections and file tasks into them |
myn_planning | Plan and reschedule your tasks on your calendar |
myn_ynab | Your YNAB budget, if you've connected YNAB in Settings → Integrations |
myn_a2a_pairing | Pair with Kaia and send her messages |
The plugin also passes your agent the Kaia memories that are relevant to each message, so you don't have to repeat yourself.
Security
- Your API key is stored hashed on our servers and shown to you only once. Revoke it at any time in Settings → API Keys.
- Pairing creates a separate pair of keys for messages between your agent and Kaia. They are not your API key.
- The plugin removes anything that looks like a secret (tokens, keys, passwords) from tool results before your agent sees them.
- If a paired agent suddenly sends far more messages than usual, Mind Your Now pauses the connection for a while.
Example
You (in Slack): Add a task to review the Q1 budget, starting Friday.
Agent: Added "Review the Q1 budget", starting Friday.
Troubleshooting
- The agent has no Mind Your Now tools. Check that
apiKeyis set in the plugin config and thatbaseUrl, if set, starts withhttps://. - Requests are refused. Make sure the key has Full Agent Access and hasn't expired or been revoked.
- Pairing fails. The code may have expired or already been used. Generate a new one.
