What This Skill Does

The SkedGo TripGo API skill serves as a robust bridge between the OpenClaw agent and the powerful SkedGo multimodal transport platform. It provides a structured interface to perform complex journey planning, access real-time public transport data, manage trip schedules, and utilize advanced geocoding services. By abstracting the complexity of the underlying REST API, this skill allows agents to execute tasks ranging from simple point-to-point routing to complex multimodal itinerary generation that incorporates car, bike, public transport, and rideshare options. It ensures secure interaction through mandatory environment variable configuration and input sanitization via jq.

Installation

To install this skill, use the OpenClaw command line interface by running: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/guanyu-zhang/skedgo-tripgo-api. Once installed, you must configure your environment variables within the skill directory or your system profile. Specifically, set TRIPGO_API_KEY to authenticate your requests. You may optionally configure TRIPGO_BASE_URL if you are targeting a specific environment or a custom API gateway. For security, it is highly recommended to define TRIPGO_WEBHOOK_ALLOWLIST to restrict external communication to verified domains. Ensure that your system environment has curl and jq installed, as these are critical for the successful execution of the provided Bash scripts.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for developing personal travel assistants, building logistics optimization tools, and integrating transport data into automated workflows. Users can automate daily commute monitoring, retrieve real-time transit schedules, or plan complex intercity trips across multiple transit operators. It is particularly useful for developers building location-aware applications that require accurate geocoding and reliable transit routing data. Whether you need to verify public transport availability in a specific region or optimize a journey based on varying transit modes, this skill provides the necessary endpoints to facilitate these operations.

Example Prompts

1. "Plan a multimodal trip for me from Sydney Central Station to Bondi Beach, prioritizing the fastest arrival time using public transport and bike share."
2. "Get the current real-time status and upcoming departure times for bus routes at the Central Business District station."
3. "Show me all available transport service providers in the Melbourne region and check if there are any current network alerts."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize the utility of the SkedGo TripGo API skill, always ensure your input parameters are properly formatted according to the references/ documentation. Be mindful of rate limits associated with your API key to prevent service disruption. The skill is designed to prioritize security, so always use the TRIPGO_WEBHOOK_ALLOWLIST to prevent unauthorized callback vulnerabilities. Please note that certain features, such as the Travelling Tourist Problem (TTP), have been marked as deprecated; prioritize using the updated routing endpoints for all new development to ensure long-term compatibility.
