Loopuman — The Human Layer for AI

Route tasks to verified human workers when AI alone isn't enough. Workers are paid in 8 seconds via cUSD on Celo blockchain. No app download required — workers operate via Telegram and WhatsApp.

When to Use This Skill

Use Loopuman when the task requires real human judgment, perception, or local knowledge that AI cannot reliably provide:

• Verification — "Is this business address real?" "Does this photo match this listing?"
• Translation — Nuanced, culturally-aware translation (not just word-for-word)
• Content moderation — "Is this image appropriate?" "Does this review violate guidelines?"
• Image labeling — "What objects are in this photo?" "Rate this image quality 1-10"
• Local knowledge — "What's the current price of tomatoes in Nairobi?"
• Surveys & opinions — "Which logo design is better?" "Rate this product description"
• Data collection — "Find the phone number for this restaurant"
• Quality assurance — "Does this AI-generated text sound natural?"

Do NOT use for tasks AI can handle: math, code generation, summarization, web search, file operations.

Setup

Create the config file with your Loopuman API key:

mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/skills/loopuman
cat > ~/.openclaw/skills/loopuman/config.json << 'EOF'
{
  "apiKey": "YOUR_API_KEY",
  "apiUrl": "https://api.loopuman.com"
}
EOF

Get your API key (one command, no auth needed):

curl -X POST https://api.loopuman.com/api/v1/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email": "[email protected]", "company_name": "Your Name", "promo_code": "LOBSTER"}'

This returns your api_key (starts with lpm_). Save it immediately — it cannot be retrieved later.
