ukg-ready

What This Skill Does

The ukg-ready skill empowers OpenClaw to interface directly with UKG Ready, a comprehensive Human Capital Management (HCM) platform. By leveraging the Membrane CLI infrastructure, this skill bridges the gap between natural language requests and complex HR data operations. Users can perform essential administrative and self-service tasks such as retrieving timecard information, checking personal schedules, managing time-off requests, and reviewing pay statements. This skill abstracts the complexities of the UKG Ready API, allowing the agent to handle authentication, session management, and data retrieval seamlessly.

Installation

To integrate this skill, ensure you have the OpenClaw agent environment set up. Run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/gora050/ukg-ready. Once installed, you must perform the Membrane authentication setup. First, install the Membrane CLI via npm install -g @membranehq/cli. Log in using membrane login --tenant. To connect to your specific UKG instance, list available connectors using membrane search ukg-ready --elementType=connector --json, identify the correct connector ID, and initiate the connection process with membrane connect --connectorId=CONNECTOR_ID --json. Always verify your existing connections with membrane connection list --json before attempting a new setup to avoid duplicate credentials.

Use Cases

This skill is designed for HR administrators and employees who need rapid access to HCM data. Use cases include:

• Employee Self-Service: Checking remaining PTO balances or submitting time-off requests without logging into the web portal.
• Payroll Management: Quick retrieval of recent pay statements or tax document summaries.
• Schedule Management: Viewing upcoming shifts or identifying scheduling conflicts.
• Data Auditing: Fetching timecard reports for verification against project management logs.

Example Prompts

1. "Check my current PTO balance and let me know how many hours I have left for the year."
2. "Show me my timecard for the last two weeks to make sure all my hours were recorded correctly."
3. "When is my next shift, and are there any conflicting time-off requests pending?"

Tips & Limitations

Always check the membrane action list if you are unsure which specific command to use, as the skill schema is dynamic. Note that this skill requires an active, authenticated Membrane session; if you encounter authentication errors, re-run the login command. Because this skill interacts with sensitive HR data, ensure your OpenClaw environment is secured and that the user account connected to the UKG API has the appropriate permissions for the actions being requested.
