Toggl Optimized

What This Skill Does

The Toggl Optimized skill is a high-performance agent integration designed to streamline time-tracking workflows within the Toggl Track ecosystem. Unlike standard integrations, this skill is purpose-built for OpenClaw to minimize LLM token consumption while maintaining deep functionality. By leveraging direct Toggl API v3 calls, the skill bypasses bloated middleware, allowing the AI to query, report, and manage time entries with exceptional speed and accuracy. It is specifically optimized for power users who require detailed reporting without overloading their active context window.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/alex1389/toggl-optimized

After installation, you must configure your authentication credentials to enable API communication. Retrieve your API token from your Toggl Profile settings, then set your environment variables as follows:

export TOGGL_API_TOKEN="your-api-token" export TOGGL_WORKSPACE_ID="your-workspace-id"

These variables are required for both the CLI commands and the automated reporting script to function correctly.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for freelancers and developers tracking billable hours across multiple projects. It excels in environments where frequent status updates are required, such as end-of-week reporting or invoice generation. Because it utilizes compact list views, it is also perfect for reviewing team progress or identifying time-leakage patterns without needing to switch tabs in your browser. Use it to quickly aggregate data for specific clients or time ranges using the integrated shell scripts.

Example Prompts

1. "Generate a JSON report for all hours worked on the 'Acme Corp' project between February 1st and February 28th."
2. "List my last 5 time entries in compact format to see where I spent my time this morning."
3. "Fetch the list of all active projects in my workspace and calculate the total duration for each."

Tips & Limitations

To keep your context usage low, always prefer the --compact flag when listing entries. Note that while this skill provides powerful reporting via shell scripts, the actual PDF generation relies on external tools being present in your environment. Always ensure your environment variables are exported in your current shell session before initiating a task. If the agent returns an error regarding authorization, verify that your TOGGL_API_TOKEN has not expired and that your workspace ID is correctly associated with your account.
