What This Skill Does

The raindrop-cli skill is a robust command-line interface designed to bridge the gap between your terminal workflow and your Raindrop.io bookmarking system. By utilizing the official Raindrop REST API, this tool allows you to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on your bookmarks without ever leaving your IDE or CLI environment. It acts as an automation layer for your personal knowledge management, ensuring that saving a research link or a documentation page is as simple as running a single command. The tool handles authentication via a secure environment variable and manages collection mapping, making it an essential utility for users who prioritize efficiency and centralized information management.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw management utility. Run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adorostkar/raindrop-cli Once installed, you must configure your authentication. Create or update your configuration file at ~/.config/openclaw/gateway.env by adding your Raindrop access token: RAINDROP_TOKEN=your_token_here. For security, ensure you set the file permissions correctly using chmod 600 ~/.config/openclaw/gateway.env to prevent unauthorized access by other local processes.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for developers, researchers, and power users who automate their web resource management. Common use cases include: 1) Automating the capture of development documentation directly from a shell script or build process. 2) Cleaning up or categorizing bookmarks in bulk by searching through existing tags. 3) Checking if a URL has already been bookmarked before starting a new research task to avoid information redundancy. 4) Integrating bookmarking into CI/CD pipelines to save logs or specific test reports for later review.

Tips & Limitations

Always be mindful of your API rate limits. The tool includes safety mechanisms to prevent duplicate entries; if a URL already exists, the script will skip creation to maintain a clean database. Note that the default collection is set to 'Unsorted' if no specific collection is specified during the 'add' command. Regularly audit your tags to ensure they remain relevant to your workflow, and always keep your RAINDROP_TOKEN encrypted or secured with restricted file permissions.
