What This Skill Does

The Clickup skill for OpenClaw provides a robust interface for interacting with your ClickUp workspace directly from your terminal or AI-driven workflows. By leveraging the Membrane CLI, this skill abstracts away complex authentication flows and API handshakes, allowing users to perform CRUD operations on their project management data seamlessly. Whether you are managing individual tasks, updating checklist items, organizing folders, or tracking progress across different spaces and teams, this skill ensures that your project data is always at your fingertips. It is designed to act as a bridge between your natural language intent and the structured ClickUp API, enabling highly efficient task management without needing to switch contexts to a browser-based dashboard.

Installation

To get started, first ensure the Membrane CLI is installed globally on your machine using npm install -g @membranehq/cli. Once installed, you will need to authenticate via membrane login --tenant. If you are working in a headless server environment, simply copy the URL provided by the CLI to a local machine to authorize the session, then finish the process with membrane login complete <code>. After authentication, install the specific skill by running: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/gora050/clickup-integration. Once installed, you will need to create a connection to your ClickUp workspace. Use membrane search clickup --elementType=connector --json to locate the correct connector and membrane connect to finalize the OAuth2 authorization. You can always verify your existing connections with membrane connection list --json to ensure the skill is ready for action.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for project managers and developers looking to automate repetitive task tracking. Use it to automatically pull daily task reports, generate tickets from technical documentation, update task statuses during a sprint, or sync checklist progress with other project management software. It is particularly useful for teams who wish to maintain a 'CLI-first' workflow, allowing developers to create tickets directly from their terminal while working on code.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, find all tasks assigned to me in the 'Engineering' space that are due today and print their titles."
2. "Update the task with ID #12345 to 'Complete' and add a comment saying 'Final verification finished'."
3. "Create a new task in the 'Development' list titled 'Fix OAuth authentication bug' and set the priority to high."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize the utility of this skill, always explore available actions using membrane action list for a specific connection. This reveals the exact schema required for each call, preventing runtime errors. Be aware that this skill operates via API; ensure that your ClickUp user account has the appropriate permissions for the spaces you are attempting to modify. For complex workflows involving large datasets, consider filtering your results using the available API query parameters to reduce latency. Note that authentication tokens are managed by Membrane, so if you experience '401 Unauthorized' errors, re-authenticating the connector is usually the fastest fix.
