What This Skill Does

The Didi Ride Skill is an essential OpenClaw agent capability designed to provide seamless, real-time transportation services within Chinese cities. It integrates directly with the DiDi MCP Server API, enabling the agent to manage the entire lifecycle of a ride, from initial planning to final arrival. Whether you are commuting to work, planning a weekend trip, or simply trying to get from point A to point B, this skill serves as your personal intelligent navigator and ride coordinator. By leveraging high-precision mapping and real-time fleet availability data, it ensures that your travel requests are handled efficiently and safely.

Installation

To install this skill, use the OpenClaw command-line interface. Run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/burjalhou/didi-ride-skill

After installation, you must configure the service by obtaining an MCP Key from the DiDi official MCP portal. Once you have the key, you can either provide it directly in the chat for the agent to auto-configure or manually update your ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json configuration file under the skills object. Ensure you have mcporter installed on your system, as it is the underlying bridge required to execute the API calls.

Use Cases

• Ride Hailing: Request a taxi, net-ride car, or premium vehicle to your current or specific location.
• Route Planning: Calculate travel routes for walking, driving, biking, or public transit.
• Trip Management: Monitor driver status, view estimated time of arrival (ETA), and cancel existing orders.
• Pricing Estimates: Get upfront fare calculations before confirming your booking.
• Scheduled Rides: Set up future pick-ups for airport runs or early morning appointments.

Example Prompts

1. "帮我叫一辆去北京西站的车，预估一下多少钱。"
2. "查询一下我的当前订单，看看司机离我还有多远。"
3. "我想从国贸步行到三里屯，帮我规划一条路线。"

Tips & Limitations

• Precision: Always allow the agent to use its location service or text search tool to identify exact coordinates; avoid relying on vague descriptions.
• Safety First: The skill requires explicit user confirmation before canceling an order or finalizing a ride booking to prevent accidental requests.
• Dependencies: This skill relies on the mcporter tool. If you encounter errors, ensure your environment is updated. It does not support third-party food delivery apps or stock market queries, focusing exclusively on mobility and transportation.
