lnemail

What This Skill Does

The lnemail skill enables your OpenClaw agent to create and manage fully anonymous, KYC-free email accounts via the LNemail service. By leveraging the Bitcoin Lightning Network, this skill allows the agent to provision an email address for 1000 sats/year, which can then be used to receive 2FA codes, account notifications, or conduct private communications. The skill handles the entire lifecycle: from generating the initial Lightning invoice to polling payment status and retrieving secure access tokens for subsequent API interactions. It provides a robust interface to list received messages, retrieve full message body contents, and send outgoing emails with individual Lightning payments per message.

Installation

To install this skill, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/lnemail/lnemail Ensure your environment has a configured Lightning wallet or access to an LND node if automated payment handling is desired.

Use Cases

• Service Registration: Register for web services that mandate email verification without exposing personal identifiers or creating a paper trail.
• 2FA Reception: Automatically receive and parse verification codes for remote services, enabling agents to complete authentication flows autonomously.
• Private Notifications: Receive alerts from financial or data-scraping tasks without utilizing personal or professional inbox infrastructure.
• Anonymous Communication: Facilitate encrypted-style communication flows where identity preservation is a technical requirement.

Example Prompts

1. "I need to register for a new developer dashboard that requires email verification. Please use the lnemail skill to set up a new account, pay the invoice, and store the credentials securely in my vault."
2. "Check my lnemail inbox for any pending 2FA codes from 'ServiceX' and extract the six-digit verification code so I can finish the setup process."
3. "Send an update to [email protected] regarding the completion of the data scraping task. Use the lnemail skill to draft and pay for the delivery."

Tips & Limitations

• Security: Always store your access tokens in a local encrypted vault. Since these accounts are tied solely to your payment proof, losing your token means losing access to your inbox.
• Content: Remember that LNemail strips all HTML for security reasons. Your agent must be capable of processing plain-text emails only.
• Cost: Each outgoing email incurs a small Lightning payment. Monitor your node balance if performing high-frequency messaging tasks.
• Retention: Be aware that this is a privacy-focused service; treat your email address as ephemeral unless you maintain regular renewal payments.
