# How to connect Firmao to OpenClaw (paste one key, 14 tools) > Connect Firmao to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Firmao key once and 14 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/firmao The usual route to Firmao 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 Firmao setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Firmao in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Firmao 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 Firmao. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Firmao** — 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 firmao # connect Firmao (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions firmao # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run firmao --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 Firmao in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Firmao API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Pull the relevant data from Firmao, 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 Firmao is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 14 Firmao tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Firmao to OpenClaw and exposes 14 Firmao 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 Firmao integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/firmao) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Firmao integration can do 14 Firmao tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 10 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 14. ### 10 of 14 Firmao tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get invoice** `firmao_get_invoice` | Retrieve detailed information about a specific invoice by its ID | | **Get offer** `firmao_get_offer` | Retrieve detailed information about a specific offer from Firmao CRM by its unique ID | | **Get task** `firmao_get_task` | Retrieves detailed information about a specific task by its unique ID | | **List company settings** `firmao_list_company_settings` | Lists all company settings from Firmao | | **List invoices** `firmao_list_invoices` | List invoices | | **List tasks** `firmao_list_tasks` | Retrieves a paginated list of tasks from Firmao | | **Create invoice** `firmao_create_invoice` | Creates a new sales or purchase invoice in Firmao CRM | | **Update contact** `firmao_update_contact` | Updates an existing contact in Firmao CRM by its ID | | **Update offer** `firmao_update_offer` | Updates an existing offer/quote in Firmao by ID | | **Update task** `firmao_update_task` | Update an existing task | ## Example prompts **Get Invoice** > Pull the relevant data from Firmao, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Offer** > Pull the relevant data from Firmao, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Task** > Pull the relevant data from Firmao, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **List Company Settings** > List the relevant items in Firmao, group them by priority, and recommend what OpenClaw should do next. ## 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 Firmao working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Firmao API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Firmao 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 Firmao. | 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 Firmao actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 14 tools for Firmao are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Firmao 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 Firmao in the browser, and the 14 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Firmao key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure Firmao 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 Firmao 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 Firmao tools Firmao 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 Firmao 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. ### Firmao 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 Firmao has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Firmao integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Firmao: link your Firmao account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Firmao API through 14 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Firmao to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Firmao skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Firmao. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Firmao key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Firmao to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Firmao in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Firmao 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 Firmao working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Firmao skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Firmao, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Firmao 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. ## Related - [PostHog](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/posthog) — Track user behavior and feature flags - [DataforSEO](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/dataforseo) — SEO data APIs for keywords, SERP, and site audits - [Metabase tools](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/metabase) — Metabase is an open-source business intelligence tool that lets you ask questions about your data and visualize answers as charts, graphs, and dashboards.
