name: luma description: Fetch upcoming events from Luma (lu.ma) for any city. Use when the user asks about tech events, startup meetups, networking events, conferences, or things happening in cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, San Francisco, New York, etc. version: 1.0.0 author: Clawd

Luma Events Skill

Fetch structured event data from Luma (lu.ma) without authentication. Luma is a popular platform for tech meetups, startup events, conferences, and community gatherings.

How It Works

Luma is a Next.js SSR app. All event data is embedded in the HTML as JSON inside a <script id="__NEXT_DATA__"> tag. The Python script extracts this data - no API key needed.

Quick Start

python3 scripts/fetch_events.py bengaluru mumbai --days 14

Usage

python3 scripts/fetch_events.py <city> [cities...] [--days N] [--max N] [--json]

Parameters

• city: City slug (bengaluru, mumbai, delhi, san-francisco, new-york, london, etc.)
• --days N: Only show events within N days (default: 30)
• --max N: Maximum events per city (default: 20)
• --json: Output raw JSON instead of formatted text

Popular City Slugs

• India: bengaluru, mumbai, delhi, hyderabad, pune
• USA: san-francisco, new-york, austin, seattle, boston
• Global: london, singapore, dubai, toronto, sydney

Output Format

Human-readable (default)

      }
    ]
  }
]

Event Persistence

Always save fetched events to ~/clawd/memory/luma-events.json for future reference.

This allows you to:

• Answer questions about events without repeated fetches
• Track which events the user is interested in
• Compare events across cities
• Build context about upcoming plans

When to save:

• After fetching events for any city
• Merge with existing data (by event URL)
• Keep events for next 60 days only
• Add lastFetched timestamp

Format:

[
  {
    "city": "bengaluru",
    "name": "AI Engineers Day",
    "start": "2026-01-31T05:00:00.000Z",
    "end": "2026-01-31T12:30:00.000Z",
    "url": "https://lu.ma/57tarlkp",
    "venue": "Whitefield, Bengaluru",
    "hosts": ["OpenAI", "Google AI"],
    "guestCount": 1411,
    "ticketStatus": "available",
    "spotsRemaining": 150,
    "isFree": false,
    "lastFetched": "2026-01-29T12:54:00Z"
  }
]

Common Use Cases

Find tech events this week

python3 scripts/fetch_events.py bengaluru --days 7

Check multiple cities for AI events

python3 scripts/fetch_events.py bengaluru mumbai san-francisco --days 14 --json | jq '.[] | .events[] | select(.event.name | contains("AI"))'

Get next 5 events in a city

python3 scripts/fetch_events.py new-york --max 5

Example Queries

User: "What tech events are happening in Bangalore this weekend?" → Fetch Bengaluru events for next 7 days, save to memory

User: "Any AI meetups in Mumbai next month?" → Fetch Mumbai events for next 30 days, filter for AI-related, save to memory

User: "Compare startup events in SF vs NYC" → Fetch both cities, compare, save both to memory

Notes

• No authentication: Luma event pages are public
• City slugs: Use lowercase, hyphenated slugs (san-francisco, not San Francisco)
• Rate limiting: Respectful fetching only (don't hammer the servers)
• Data freshness: Events are live data from the HTML, always current
• Timezone: Times are in the event's local timezone (extracted from start_at)

Troubleshooting

"Could not find NEXT_DATA" → Luma changed their HTML structure, script needs updating

"Unexpected data structure" → The JSON path changed, check the latest HTML

No events returned → City slug might be wrong, or no upcoming events for that city

Timeout errors → Network issue, retry or check internet connection

Dependencies

• Python 3.6+ (stdlib only - no external packages needed)
• urllib, json, re, argparse, datetime (all built-in)

Changelog

v1.0.0 (2026-01-29)

• Initial release
• Support for multiple cities
• Human-readable and JSON output
• Date filtering (--days)
• Event limit per city (--max)
• Event persistence to memory file
