Skillz Market

Search and call monetized AI skills with automatic cryptocurrency payments via x402.

Quick Start

List all available skills:

npx tsx {baseDir}/skillz-cli.ts list

Search for skills:

npx tsx {baseDir}/skillz-cli.ts search "echo"

Get skill details:

npx tsx {baseDir}/skillz-cli.ts info "echo-service"

Call a skill (requires SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY):

npx tsx {baseDir}/skillz-cli.ts call "echo-service" '{"message":"hello"}'

Commands

• list [--verified] - List all available skills (optionally filter by verified only)
• search <query> - Search for skills by keyword
• info <slug> - Get skill details by slug
• call <slug> <json> - Call a skill with automatic x402 payment
• direct <url> <json> - Call any x402-enabled endpoint directly

Configuration

Your wallet private key is required for x402 payments. Set it in OpenClaw config (~/.openclaw/openclaw.json):

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "skillzmarket": {
        "apiKey": "0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: OpenClaw uses apiKey as the standard config field for skill credentials. This maps to the SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable that the skill uses internally.

Alternatively, set the environment variable directly:

export SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

Environment Variables

• SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY - Wallet private key for x402 payments
• SKILLZ_API_URL - API endpoint (default: https://api.skillz.market)

@skillzmarket/openclaw-skill

OpenClaw skill for calling monetized AI skills from the Skillz Market with automatic cryptocurrency payments.

Installation

Via ClawHub (recommended)

clawhub install skillzmarket

Via npx add-skill

npx add-skill github:skillzmarket/skill

Via openskills

npx openskills install skillzmarket/skill

Manual installation

git clone https://github.com/skillzmarket/skill
cp -r skill ~/.openclaw/skills/skillzmarket
cd ~/.openclaw/skills/skillzmarket && npm install

Configuration

Your wallet private key is required for making x402 payments. Choose one of these methods:

Option 1: OpenClaw Config (Recommended)

Add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "skillzmarket": {
        "apiKey": "0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Why apiKey? OpenClaw uses apiKey as the standard config field for skill credentials. It automatically maps to the skill's primary environment variable (SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY).

Option 2: Environment Variable

export SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY=0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY

Security Notes

• Never commit your private key to version control
• Use a dedicated wallet with limited funds for skill payments
• The private key is used to sign x402 payment transactions on Base (USDC)

Usage

Search for skills

/skillzmarket search translate

Get skill details

/skillzmarket info echo

Call a skill (with automatic payment)

/skillzmarket call echo {"message": "hello"}

Call an endpoint directly

/skillzmarket direct https://skills.example.com/echo {"message": "hello"}

How it works

1. Skills are registered on the Skillz Market API
2. When you call a skill, the CLI looks up the skill's endpoint and price
3. The x402 payment protocol automatically handles USDC payments on Base
4. You receive the skill's response

Environment Variables

• SKILLZ_PRIVATE_KEY - Your wallet private key for payments (required for call and direct)
• SKILLZ_API_URL - Override the API URL (default: https://api.skillz.market)
