What This Skill Does

The kimai-time-tracking skill serves as a comprehensive bridge between the OpenClaw agent and your Kimai 2.x instance. It empowers the AI to act as a personal time-tracking assistant, capable of managing the entire project lifecycle—from setting up customers, projects, and activities to logging hours and generating invoices. By interfacing directly with the Kimai REST API, the skill handles authentication and request formatting, allowing users to focus on their work while the agent manages the administrative burden of tracking billable time, verifying timers, and preparing data for accounting.

Installation

To install this skill, use the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/0x7466/kimai-time-tracking

Once installed, ensure your environment is configured correctly by setting KIMAI_BASE_URL and KIMAI_API_TOKEN in your OpenClaw environment configuration. Ensure your Kimai instance has the REST API enabled and your user account possesses the necessary permissions (e.g., view_own_timesheet, create_own_timesheet) to perform the desired actions.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for freelancers, developers, and agency teams who use Kimai to track work hours. Use it to quickly start a timer when beginning a task, query how many hours were logged on a specific project last week for client reporting, or automate the bulk creation of project hierarchies when starting a new engagement. It is also excellent for administrative cleanup, such as searching for unexported timesheets or managing team-wide activity logs.

Example Prompts

  1. "Start a new timer for the 'Mobile App' project under the 'Design' activity with the description 'UI overhaul'."
  2. "Show me all my timesheets from last month that haven't been exported yet."
  3. "Create a new customer named 'Global Tech' and set up a 'Maintenance' project for them."

Tips & Limitations

  • Project/Activity IDs: While the skill supports names, looking up IDs via timesheets recent first can improve reliability if names are not unique.
  • Authentication: Keep your API token secure; do not share it in plain text files. Use a secret manager if possible.
  • Compatibility: This skill is strictly for Kimai 2.x. It will not function with Kimai 1.x or other time-tracking software like Toggl or Clockify.
  • Connectivity: The skill requires an active internet connection to your Kimai instance at all times.
