farmos-tasks

What This Skill Does

The farmos-tasks skill provides a robust interface for interacting with your FarmOS environment, allowing users to query, manage, and create work orders and tasks directly through the OpenClaw AI agent. It acts as an integration layer between human intent and the underlying farm management system, streamlining the process of tracking assignments, checking task statuses, and handling operational workflows such as procurement requests or maintenance follow-ups. By utilizing both public integration endpoints and authenticated API calls, this skill enables seamless synchronization of farm activities.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/brianppetty/farmos-tasks

Ensure that you have access to the farmOS backend at http://100.102.77.110:8007. For write operations, you must ensure the ~/clawd/scripts/farmos-auth.sh script is configured correctly to generate JWT tokens based on your current user role as defined in ~/.clawdbot/farmos-users.json.

Use Cases

• Task Delegation: Managers can quickly create tasks for team members based on conversational input.
• Operational Monitoring: Field workers can query their personal queue or filter tasks by priority to understand what requires immediate attention.
• Procurement Tracking: When resources run low, users can generate tasks for restock requests, ensuring that supply needs are logged and tracked until completion.
• Status Reporting: Provides quick summaries of pending, in-progress, or overdue tasks, helping teams maintain visibility on production timelines.

Example Prompts

1. "What are the high-priority tasks currently in progress, and do any of them involve me?"
2. "We used the last of the fertilizer in field 12, can you create a task to reorder more?"
3. "Mark task ID 402 as complete and list my remaining pending assignments for today."

Tips & Limitations

• Token Management: Authenticated endpoints require a JWT token that expires every 15 minutes; the agent will automatically request a new one upon receiving a 401 response.
• Scope Boundaries: This skill is strictly for task management. For equipment maintenance, use farmos-equipment. For scheduling or time-off queries, use farmos-workforce. Field observations should be logged through farmos-observations.
• Permissions: Always verify user roles before attempting write operations; the system will block unauthorized requests based on your farmos-users.json definition.
