What This Skill Does

ClawFlight is an AI-powered flight search engine designed specifically for the needs of remote workers, digital nomads, and business travelers who require high-speed, reliable internet while in the air. Unlike standard travel aggregators that prioritize generic metrics like price or airline loyalty, ClawFlight prioritizes connectivity by filtering for airlines equipped with Starlink satellite WiFi. The skill integrates live flight data from the Amadeus API with a community-driven database of WiFi quality ratings. Users can search for flights, sort them by specific metrics such as WiFi performance, travel cost, flight duration, or jet lag impact, and receive direct affiliate booking links. Additionally, the skill features a post-flight notification system that prompts users to rate their inflight internet experience, contributing to the accuracy of the collective database.

Installation

To get started, ensure you have the OpenClaw environment set up. Install the dependencies by navigating to the project directory and running npm install. You will need to obtain a free Amadeus API key by registering at the Amadeus for Developers portal. Once you have your Client ID and Secret, set them as environment variables in your terminal: AMADEUS_CLIENT_ID and AMADEUS_CLIENT_SECRET. Optionally, you can set AMADEUS_ENV to 'production' once you move out of test mode. Finally, add the skill to your agent via clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/assistant-design/clawflight.

Use Cases

ClawFlight is ideal for professionals who cannot afford a connectivity blackout during long-haul travel. Use it to:

• Plan international trips where you need to attend meetings or push code during flight.
• Research which airlines offer the most reliable internet on your specific route.
• Track and rate WiFi quality to help the community make informed booking decisions.
• Automate flight selection based on biological preferences, such as prioritizing routes that minimize jet lag.

Example Prompts

1. "Find me a flight from SFO to NRT on May 1st that has the best Starlink WiFi for working on my laptop."
2. "Search for the cheapest flights from JFK to London next Monday, but only include airlines with confirmed Starlink internet."
3. "Show me flights from LAX to SYD that are the best for minimizing jet lag, and show me the WiFi scores for those airlines."

Tips & Limitations

• Data Accuracy: WiFi ratings are based on community feedback. If you have a great or poor connection, remember to use the clawflight rate command to help others.
• API Dependencies: The skill relies on the Amadeus API. Ensure your credentials remain valid to avoid search interruptions.
• Connectivity: While Starlink provides industry-leading speeds, onboard performance can still be affected by satellite coverage zones and aircraft-specific hardware configurations.
