What This Skill Does

The Microsoft Outlook skill for OpenClaw provides a powerful, robust interface for managing your entire Microsoft 365 ecosystem. By leveraging Membrane's sophisticated authentication layer, this skill allows users to interact with their Outlook data—including emails, calendar events, contacts, and tasks—without needing to worry about complex OAuth flows or credential refreshing. Whether you are looking to automate your inbox management, sync calendar entries across platforms, or extract meeting details for reports, this skill acts as the bridge between your workspace and the Microsoft Graph API.

Installation

Getting started with the Microsoft Outlook skill is a streamlined process. First, ensure you have the OpenClaw environment configured. Install the Membrane CLI globally using npm: npm install -g @membranehq/cli. Once installed, authenticate by running membrane login --tenant. To activate the skill, install it via the ClawHub: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/gora050/microsoft-outlook. After installation, search for the available connector using membrane search microsoft-outlook --elementType=connector --json, and proceed to establish your authenticated connection. Once connected, your connection ID acts as the secure key for all subsequent actions, allowing you to list, query, and trigger workflows directly from your agent.

Use Cases

This skill is designed for high-efficiency professional workflows. Use it to:

• Automate email triage: Quickly find, flag, or move important emails based on custom keywords.
• Calendar Syncing: Automatically update meeting availability across your calendar based on incoming requests.
• Task Management: Create and update Microsoft To-Do items directly from your email threads or chat interactions.
• Contact Enrichment: Search, verify, or organize your contacts list for better outreach.
• Custom API Integration: Utilize the proxy request feature to tap into specialized Microsoft Graph endpoints that standard actions might not cover, enabling deep integration with enterprise features.

Example Prompts

1. "Find the email from my manager regarding the Q3 project deadline and create a task for it in my to-do list."
2. "Check my calendar for tomorrow and summarize my upcoming meetings."
3. "Search my contacts for Sarah Miller and send her a follow-up email confirming our lunch meeting next Tuesday."

Tips & Limitations

When working with Microsoft Outlook, remember that your actions are subject to the permissions granted during the initial authentication flow. Always use the membrane action list command to verify which parameters are required before running a task. For complex operations, the proxy request feature is invaluable, but be mindful of API rate limits imposed by Microsoft. Ensure you handle sensitive data carefully; although Membrane manages authentication securely, your agent scripts should follow the principle of least privilege when interacting with private mailbox contents.
