How to connect Otter.ai to OpenClaw
Connect Otter.ai to OpenClaw with ClawLink in one click — 3 tools your AI agent can call from chat via hosted OAuth. No API keys, no manual setup.
Otter.aiOAUTH2MCPOtter.ai MCP lets agents retrieve the authenticated user's profile, search authorized meetings and conversations, and fetch complete transcripts for analysis and summarization.. Once connected, OpenClaw can read and act on Otter.ai from chat — pairing, token refresh, and tool wiring handled for you.
The usual route to Otter.ai 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 Otter.ai setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Otter.ai in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Otter.ai actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself.
Copy this prompt into OpenClaw, or open the Otter.ai skill on ClawHub.
Before installing anything, inspect the ClawHub skill metadata and setup requirements.
If the skill asks you to install a third-party package or CLI, verify its source, maintainer, and package contents before running the install command.
Install the skill "Otter.ai" (hith3sh/otter-ai-workspace) from ClawHub only after those checks pass.

Keep the work scoped to this skill only.
After install, help me finish setup from verified skill metadata.
Use only the metadata you can verify from ClawHub; do not invent missing requirements.
Ask before making any broader environment changes.Setup
It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to Otter.ai.
1Install the plugin
Paste the setup prompt into OpenClaw, or install from the terminal and ask OpenClaw to pair:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin- 2
Connect Otter.ai
One-click OAuth in the dashboard.
- 3
Use it from chat
Ask OpenClaw: "What can you do with Otter.ai?"
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:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-pluginThen 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 Otter.ai in the ClawLink dashboard — a one-click OAuth approval, no API keys.
Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw:
Use Otter.ai to mcp otter fetch 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:
npx -y @useclawlink/cli loginlogin opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once Otter.ai is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 3 Otter.ai tools over MCP. Full setup for MCP clients and shell agents: connect apps to any AI agent.
Otter.ai MCP for OpenClaw
Looking for a Otter.ai MCP server for OpenClaw? ClawLink connects Otter.ai to OpenClaw and exposes 3 Otter.ai tools your agent can call over MCP, with hosted auth and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using Hermes instead? The Hermes Otter.ai integration works the same way.
What the OpenClaw Otter.ai integration can do
3 Otter.ai tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected.

ClawLink vs. building it yourself
The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual OAuth app 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 Otter.ai working from chat.
| Manual | ClawLink | |
|---|---|---|
| Connection flow | Register a Otter.ai app, configure redirect URLs, manage consent details, and reconnect users when auth settings drift. | Users connect Otter.ai through the hosted browser flow and ClawLink keeps the token lifecycle out of your app code. |
| Ongoing maintenance | You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for Otter.ai. | 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 Otter.ai actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 3 tools for Otter.ai are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. |
ClawLink vs. Composio
Composio also exposes Otter.ai 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 Otter.ai in the browser, and the 3 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK, no config file, and no API key handling. Choosing between them? Read the full Composio alternatives comparison.
Troubleshooting
OpenClaw installed the Otter.ai skill but can't call the tools
The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Otter.ai, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Otter.ai 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 Otter.ai 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 Otter.ai tools
Otter.ai 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 Otter.ai 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.
Otter.ai 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.
OAuth finished in the browser but the account is still missing
Try reconnecting Otter.ai and complete the consent flow in the same browser session. Partial OAuth approvals or switching accounts mid-flow can leave the connection incomplete.
FAQ
Is there a OpenClaw Otter.ai integration?
Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Otter.ai: link your Otter.ai account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Otter.ai API through 3 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling.
How do I add Otter.ai to OpenClaw with ClawLink?
Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Otter.ai skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Otter.ai. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files or API keys to manage.
How long does it take to connect Otter.ai to OpenClaw?
About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Otter.ai in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message.
Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Otter.ai up myself?
The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual OAuth app 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 Otter.ai working from chat.
