# How to connect DeepImage to OpenClaw (paste one key, 5 tools)

> Connect DeepImage to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your DeepImage key once and 5 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine.

Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/deepimage

The usual route to DeepImage access for OpenClaw is an MCP server you configure and keep running, plus your own OAuth app or API keys. ClawLink gives OpenClaw a more practical DeepImage setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect DeepImage in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real DeepImage actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself.

## Setup

It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to DeepImage.

1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once.
2. **Connect DeepImage** — one-click OAuth in the ClawLink dashboard.
3. **Use it from chat** — ask OpenClaw in plain English.

**Paste this into OpenClaw to set up ClawLink:**

> I want to connect my apps to OpenClaw through ClawLink.
> Please install the ClawLink plugin from ClawHub and enable it: `openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin`
> When it is installed, tell me and stop. After I reply, give me the ClawLink pairing link. Setup notes, if you need them: https://claw-link.dev/skill.md

**Alternative for any agent (no plugin needed):** if the OpenClaw plugin route isn't available or doesn't work, any AI agent with shell access can use the ClawLink CLI instead:

```bash
npx -y @useclawlink/cli login          # sign in via browser — no API key to paste
npx -y @useclawlink/cli connect deepimage  # connect DeepImage (browser OAuth)
npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions deepimage  # list available actions
npx -y @useclawlink/cli run deepimage <action> --input '<json>'  # execute (add --confirm for writes)
```

### Install by command

The setup prompt above does all of this in one paste. By hand, it is one install command plus a browser approval:

```bash
openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
```

Then ask OpenClaw to set up ClawLink. It starts browser pairing and prints an approval link — open it, approve the device, return to the chat, and say `done`. Finally, connect DeepImage in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your DeepImage API key once.

Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw:

> Pull the relevant data from DeepImage, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention.

### Using a different agent?

The OpenClaw plugin is one client of ClawLink's MCP server. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any agent that can run a shell command pairs with the same ClawLink account through the CLI:

```bash
npx -y @useclawlink/cli login
```

`login` opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once DeepImage is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 5 DeepImage tools over MCP.

## DeepImage MCP for OpenClaw

Looking for a DeepImage MCP server for OpenClaw? ClawLink connects DeepImage to OpenClaw and exposes 5 DeepImage tools your agent can call over [MCP](https://claw-link.dev/learn/what-is-an-mcp-server), with [hosted auth](https://claw-link.dev/learn/oauth-for-ai-agents) and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using Hermes instead? The [Hermes DeepImage integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/deepimage) works the same way.

## What the OpenClaw DeepImage integration can do

5 DeepImage tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 4 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 5.

### 4 of 5 DeepImage tools for OpenClaw

| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Get account info** `deepimage_get_account_info` | Retrieve authenticated user's profile information including credits, username, email, API key |
| **Get job result** `deepimage_get_job_result` | Retrieve processing job result by hash |
| **Process image async** `deepimage_process_image_async` | Schedule an image enhancement job and wait for the result |
| **Process image sync** `deepimage_process_image_sync` | Process an image synchronously with Deep Image AI |

## Example prompts

**Get Account Info**

> Pull the relevant data from DeepImage, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention.

**Get Job Result**

> Pull the relevant data from DeepImage, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention.

**Process Image Async**

> Use DeepImage to process image async and walk me through the result in plain English.

**Process Image Sync**

> Use DeepImage to process image sync and walk me through the result in plain English.

## ClawLink vs. building it yourself

The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for OpenClaw. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want DeepImage working from chat.

| | Manual | ClawLink |
|---|---|---|
| **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the DeepImage API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected DeepImage account becomes available to the agent without you building credential management. |
| **Ongoing maintenance** | You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for DeepImage. | ClawLink handles the repetitive integration plumbing so your team can focus on the workflow instead of the infrastructure. |
| **Agent usability** | You still need to expose the right DeepImage actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 5 tools for DeepImage are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. |

## ClawLink vs. Composio

Composio also exposes DeepImage to AI agents. It is developer infrastructure: Python and TypeScript SDKs, an MCP server, and a catalog past 1,000 apps, aimed at teams shipping agent products. ClawLink is built for OpenClaw users instead. You install the plugin once, connect DeepImage in the browser, and the 5 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the DeepImage key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

### OpenClaw installed the DeepImage skill but can't call the tools
The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about DeepImage, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure DeepImage is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog. If OpenClaw runs as a persistent gateway, restart it so the new tools register.

### Connection succeeds but no tools appear
Reconnect DeepImage from the dashboard, then start a fresh chat if the runtime still has the old tool catalog loaded.

### "Tool schema not loaded yet" error when calling DeepImage tools
DeepImage tool schemas load on demand the first time a tool runs and are cached after that, so this error usually clears on its own: wait a few seconds and retry the same request. If every DeepImage call keeps failing with it in a fresh chat, reconnect from the dashboard, and contact support if it still persists — that pattern points to a configuration problem on our side, not something you can fix by reconnecting again.

### DeepImage returns 403 or "permission denied" on one action while others work
Two usual causes. The connected account may not have access to the specific workspace, inbox, store, or project in the request — check that first. If access looks right, the agent may have sent a placeholder value (like "YOUR_ID" or an example id from documentation) instead of a real one: ask it to run a list or search tool first, then retry the action with a real id from those results. Most failures at this stage are one of these two, not ClawLink bugs.

### API key setup works but results look incomplete
Double-check that the API key for DeepImage has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes.

### Is there a OpenClaw DeepImage integration?
Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to DeepImage: link your DeepImage account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the DeepImage API through 5 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling.

### How do I add DeepImage to OpenClaw with ClawLink?
Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink DeepImage skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize DeepImage. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the DeepImage key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment.

### How long does it take to connect DeepImage to OpenClaw?
About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to DeepImage in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message.

### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring DeepImage up myself?
The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for OpenClaw. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want DeepImage working from chat.
