aubrai-longevity

What This Skill Does

The aubrai-longevity skill integrates the Aubrai research engine directly into your OpenClaw agent, enabling it to answer complex inquiries about longevity, aging, biological research, and lifespan extension. By leveraging the public Aubrai API (apis.aubr.ai), the skill performs asynchronous research, manages conversation states for follow-up inquiries, and extracts verifiable citations to ensure transparency. It acts as a specialized research assistant, synthesizing academic data and public scientific discourse into clear, digestible summaries for users.

Installation

You can install this skill through the OpenClaw CLI by executing the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dobrinalexandru/aubrai-longevity

Ensure that you have the latest version of OpenClaw installed to maintain compatibility with the API's messaging format.

Use Cases

• Scientific Literature Review: Quickly gather summaries of the latest breakthroughs in Geroscience and molecular biology.
• Dietary & Lifestyle Research: Investigate the evidence behind popular longevity interventions such as fasting, calorie restriction, and specific supplements like NAD+ precursors or sirtuin activators.
• Educational Summaries: Ideal for students or researchers who need a quick, cited overview of aging mechanisms like cellular senescence, telomere attrition, or epigenetic clocks.
• Contextual Dialogue: Maintain a continuous thread of conversation to drill down into specific sub-topics, such as questioning the efficacy of specific clinical trials cited in previous research responses.

Example Prompts

1. "What is the current scientific consensus on the role of rapamycin in lifespan extension for mammals?"
2. "Explain the mechanism of cellular senescence and how senolytic drugs target this process."
3. "Summarize recent research on the impact of intermittent fasting on mitochondrial health, and provide sources."

Tips & Limitations

• Transparency: Always verify the provided links; the skill outputs cited sources as a footer. If the API returns no links, the summary may be synthesized from general training data.
• Safety First: The responses generated by this skill are for informational and research purposes only. They do not constitute medical advice. Always append a disclaimer when presenting these results to others, and encourage users to consult with healthcare professionals regarding any health-related lifestyle changes.
• Performance: The research process is asynchronous. The agent polls the API every 5 seconds. Ensure your network connection remains stable during this time to avoid timeout errors during the status check phase.
• Privacy: While the API is public, do not input sensitive personal health data into the prompt, as your query is sent to a third-party server to facilitate the research request.
