What This Skill Does

The Bazi (八字) skill is a powerful astrological utility designed for OpenClaw AI agents to perform traditional Chinese four-pillar chart calculations. By analyzing a user's exact birth date, time, and gender, the skill calculates the four pillars (Year, Month, Day, and Hour) along with the corresponding ten-step 'Da Yun' (Great Luck) cycles. It interprets the provided data into the traditional 'Qianzao' (male) or 'Kunzao' (female) format, serving as a comprehensive digital reference for practitioners of Chinese metaphysics. The skill provides an instant summary of the celestial stems and earthly branches, coupled with a deep-link URL that directs the user to a visual representation of their full birth chart analysis.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/kinmeic/yoebao-bazi Ensure your agent has the necessary permissions to interface with external APIs, as the skill fetches accurate calendar conversions and astrological data from the Yoebao database.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for users interested in East Asian cultural studies, historical calendar research, or personal self-discovery. It acts as an automated calculator that removes the complexity of manual stem-branch conversions. It is frequently used by researchers to quickly verify the date-to-ganzhi mapping or by individuals curious about their personal astrological pillars for lifestyle planning or historical analysis.

Tips & Limitations

• Precision is key: Ensure the birth time is provided in a 24-hour format and includes minutes. Even a small discrepancy in time can shift the Hour pillar or the start of the Great Luck cycles.
• Gender relevance: The distinction between 'Qianzao' and 'Kunzao' is vital because the sequence of the ten-year Great Luck cycles is calculated based on the gender and the birth year's Yin/Yang properties.
• Interpretation: While the skill provides the raw technical calculation of the Pillars, it does not provide fortune-telling services or personality analysis. It is intended for structural charting purposes only.
• Data privacy: Since the skill sends specific birth timestamps to an external API to calculate the data, please ensure users are comfortable with sharing birth information with the underlying service provider.
