What This Skill Does

PokerPal is a specialized AI-powered utility designed to manage and retrieve data from private or social poker games. Instead of manually tracking stacks, buy-ins, or player performance in spreadsheets, this skill integrates directly with your gaming records to provide real-time snapshots of game states. It acts as the ultimate digital floor manager, allowing you to fetch summaries of group activities, identify active versus closed games, track individual player buy-ins over time, and view detailed end-of-night or in-progress stats for specific tables.

Installation

To integrate PokerPal into your OpenClaw environment, ensure you have your agent terminal open and run the following installation command:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/vvardhan14/pokerpal

Use Cases

• Post-Game Reconciliation: Quickly pull game summaries to calculate payouts, splits, and net profit/loss for all participants without manually parsing hand histories.
• Ongoing Game Monitoring: Check which players are currently deep-stacked or monitor the total pool for active games while sitting at the table.
• Historical Performance Tracking: Review a player's lifetime buy-in stats to track their performance across multiple sessions and games within a specific group.
• Group Management: Easily list all active or historical groups to switch between different poker clubs or home game circles.

Example Prompts

1. "Hey PokerPal, list all my active games in the 'Friday Night Lights' group and show me the player count for each."
2. "What are the current buy-in stats for John Doe in the 'High Stakes' group?"
3. "Summarize the last session for the 'Office League' group and tell me who the biggest winner was."

Tips & Limitations

• Contextual Awareness: The agent performs best when you provide the group name explicitly in your prompt. If you have multiple groups with similar names, ensure you are specific to avoid cross-data errors.
• Formatting: Always request results in a clear format if you need to share them with other players; PokerPal defaults to dollar-formatted strings to ensure readability.
• Data Privacy: This skill relies on the data provided to the PokerPal API. Ensure that all participants are aware their buy-in and game data are being tracked via this agent. The tool is read-heavy and designed for reporting, not for executing financial transactions or processing real money transfers.
