Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fr3nch13/openclaw-traktWhat This Skill Does
The openclaw-trakt skill serves as a powerful bridge between your media consumption habits and the OpenClaw AI ecosystem. By integrating with the Trakt.tv API, this skill allows users to maintain a centralized log of their viewing history, manage watchlists, and receive tailored entertainment suggestions based on personal preferences. It acts as a personal concierge for your entertainment center, automating the discovery process and helping you keep track of episodes and movies across various streaming platforms.
Installation
Installation is streamlined through an automated script or a manual process. First, ensure you have Python installed. The recommended method is to execute python3 scripts/setup.py, which handles dependencies and configuration file generation. For manual setup, users must register an application at the Trakt.tv developer portal to obtain a Client ID and Secret. These are placed into ~/.openclaw/trakt_config.json. Once configured, run python3 scripts/trakt_client.py auth to exchange your credentials for an OAuth access token, allowing OpenClaw to communicate securely with your Trakt account.
Use Cases
This skill is perfect for users who frequently struggle with the 'what to watch' dilemma. Common use cases include syncing your watch history to ensure your Trakt profile is up to date, fetching 'trending' lists to stay current with popular media, checking your personal watchlist when you have a free evening, or requesting recommendations based on shows you have already enjoyed. It is particularly useful for power users who leverage Trakt Pro for advanced data syncing.
Example Prompts
- "OpenClaw, what should I watch tonight based on my recent activity?"
- "Add 'The Bear' to my watchlist and let me know when a new episode drops."
- "Show me the trending sci-fi movies on Trakt right now."
Tips & Limitations
Note that full automated watch-tracking functionality requires a Trakt Pro subscription. Always ensure your network is stable during the authentication handshake. If the API returns a 401 error, try re-running the authentication script to refresh your access tokens. Finally, keep your configuration file secure, as it contains sensitive API secrets.
