# How to connect Elevenreader to OpenClaw (paste one key, 124 tools) > Connect Elevenreader to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Elevenreader key once and 124 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/elevenreader The usual route to Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Elevenreader in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Elevenreader actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself. **Start here:** install the ClawLink plugin (`openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin`), pair it in the browser, then connect the app in the ClawLink dashboard. The interactive install prompt is on the web version of this page: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/elevenreader ## Setup It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to Elevenreader. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Elevenreader** — one-click OAuth in the ClawLink dashboard. 3. **Use it from chat** — ask OpenClaw in plain English. **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 elevenreader # connect Elevenreader (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions elevenreader # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run elevenreader --input '' # 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 Elevenreader in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Elevenreader API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Use Elevenreader to add documentation to knowledge base and walk me through the result in plain English. ### 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 Elevenreader is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 124 Elevenreader tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Elevenreader to OpenClaw and exposes 124 Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/elevenreader) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Elevenreader integration can do 124 Elevenreader tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 30 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 124. ### 30 of 124 Elevenreader tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Add documentation to knowledge base** `elevenreader_add_documentation_to_knowledge_base` | Add documentation to a conversational AI agent's knowledge base | | **Add pronunciation dictionary from file** `elevenreader_add_pronunciation_dictionary_from_file` | Add a pronunciation dictionary from a .pls file to ElevenLabs | | **Add pronunciation dictionary from rules** `elevenreader_add_pronunciation_dictionary_from_rules` | Add a pronunciation dictionary from rules in ElevenLabs | | **Add pronunciation dictionary rules** `elevenreader_add_pronunciation_dictionary_rules` | Add pronunciation rules to an ElevenLabs pronunciation dictionary | | **Calculate public llm expected cost** `elevenreader_calculate_public_llm_expected_cost` | Calculate expected LLM usage costs based on prompt length, knowledge base size, and RAG configuration | | **Download speech history items** `elevenreader_download_speech_history_items` | Download speech history items from ElevenLabs | | **Generate composition plan** `elevenreader_generate_composition_plan` | Generate a music composition plan using ElevenLabs Music API | | **Get agent** `elevenreader_get_agent` | Retrieve complete details for a specific conversational AI agent by ID | | **Get agent knowledge base size** `elevenreader_get_agent_knowledge_base_size` | Retrieve the size of a conversational AI agent's knowledge base | | **Get agent link** `elevenreader_get_agent_link` | Get a shareable link for a conversational AI agent | | **Get agent llm expected cost calculation** `elevenreader_get_agent_llm_expected_cost_calculation` | Calculate expected LLM usage costs for a conversational AI agent | | **Get agent response test** `elevenreader_get_agent_response_test` | Retrieve agent response test details by test ID | | **Get agent response tests summaries** `elevenreader_get_agent_response_tests_summaries` | Retrieve agent response test summaries by test IDs | | **Get agent summaries** `elevenreader_get_agent_summaries` | Retrieve summaries for multiple agents by their IDs | | **Get agent widget route** `elevenreader_get_agent_widget_route` | Retrieve the widget configuration for a conversational AI agent | | **Get audio full from speech history item** `elevenreader_get_audio_full_from_speech_history_item` | Retrieve the audio file from a speech history item | | **Get audio native project settings** `elevenreader_get_audio_native_project_settings` | Retrieve audio native project settings from ElevenLabs | | **Get batch call** `elevenreader_get_batch_call` | Retrieve a batch call by its ID | | **Get conversation history** `elevenreader_get_conversation_history` | Retrieve complete conversation details including transcript, metadata, and analysis | | **Get conversation signed link** `elevenreader_get_conversation_signed_link` | Get a signed URL for a conversation with an agent | | **Get conversations** `elevenreader_get_conversations` | Retrieve conversations from ElevenLabs Conversational AI | | **Get dashboard settings route** `elevenreader_get_dashboard_settings_route` | Retrieve ConvAI dashboard settings including configured charts | | **Get documentation from knowledge base** `elevenreader_get_documentation_from_knowledge_base` | Retrieve a specific document from a conversational AI agent's knowledge base by document ID | | **Get dubbed file** `elevenreader_get_dubbed_file` | Download a dubbed audio or video file from a dubbing project | | **Get dubbed metadata** `elevenreader_get_dubbed_metadata` | Retrieve metadata for a dubbing project by ID | | **Get dubbed transcript file** `elevenreader_get_dubbed_transcript_file` | Retrieve the transcript of a dubbed audio or video file | | **Get dubbing transcripts** `elevenreader_get_dubbing_transcripts` | Retrieve transcripts from a dubbing project in various formats | | **Get generate voice parameters** `elevenreader_get_generate_voice_parameters` | Retrieve voice generation parameters from ElevenLabs | | **Get knowledge base content** `elevenreader_get_knowledge_base_content` | Retrieve the text content of a knowledge base document by ID | | **Get knowledge base dependent agents** `elevenreader_get_knowledge_base_dependent_agents` | Retrieve the list of conversational AI agents that depend on a specific knowledge base document | ##

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 Elevenreader working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Elevenreader API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader. | 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 Elevenreader actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 124 tools for Elevenreader are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader in the browser, and the 124 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Elevenreader key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader tools Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader 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. ### Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Elevenreader integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Elevenreader: link your Elevenreader account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Elevenreader API through 124 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Elevenreader to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Elevenreader skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Elevenreader. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Elevenreader key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Elevenreader to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Elevenreader in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Elevenreader 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 Elevenreader working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Elevenreader skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Elevenreader, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Elevenreader is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog.
