Zyla API Hub Skill

Turn your OpenClaw AI agent into a real-world operator. Power it with 10,000+ production-ready APIs from Zyla API Hub — instant access to weather, finance, translation, email validation, geolocation, and more, all through one unified API key, pay-as-you-go pricing, and zero vendor lock-in.

Setup

If ZYLA_API_KEY is not configured, guide the user:

1. Visit https://zylalabs.com/openclaw/connect to get an API key
2. Or run /zyla connect if the plugin is installed (opens browser automatically)
3. Add the key to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json under skills.entries.zyla-api-hub-skill.apiKey

Never ask the user to paste their API key in chat. Ask them to set it via the config and confirm when ready.
