# How to connect Ritekit to OpenClaw (paste one key, 14 tools) > Connect Ritekit to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Ritekit 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/ritekit The usual route to Ritekit 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 Ritekit setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Ritekit in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Ritekit 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 Ritekit. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Ritekit** — 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 ritekit # connect Ritekit (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions ritekit # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run ritekit --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 Ritekit in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Ritekit API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Use Ritekit to auto hashtag 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 Ritekit is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 14 Ritekit tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Ritekit to OpenClaw and exposes 14 Ritekit 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 Ritekit integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/ritekit) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Ritekit integration can do 14 Ritekit tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 13 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 14. ### 13 of 14 Ritekit tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Auto hashtag** `ritekit_auto_hashtag` | Automatically add relevant hashtags to a given post | | **Banned instagram hashtags** `ritekit_banned_instagram_hashtags` | Identify which hashtags are banned on Instagram | | **Detect disposable email** `ritekit_detect_disposable_email` | Detect if an email address is disposable | | **Detect email typo** `ritekit_detect_email_typo` | Detect common typos in email addresses and suggest corrections | | **Freemail detection** `ritekit_freemail_detection` | Detect whether an email address belongs to a free email provider | | **Get client ID** `ritekit_get_client_id` | Retrieve stored RiteKit client_id | | **Get client secret** `ritekit_get_client_secret` | Retrieve stored RiteKit client_secret | | **Get full email insights** `ritekit_get_full_email_insights` | Retrieve comprehensive email address insights including full name, free mail detection | | **Hashtag suggestions** `ritekit_hashtag_suggestions` | Get hashtag suggestions for a given text | | **List link ads** `ritekit_list_link_ads` | Retrieve a list of link ads | | **Text to image** `ritekit_text_to_image` | Convert a quote into a styled image | | **Get access token** `ritekit_get_access_token` | Obtain a RiteKit access token | | **Shorten link** `ritekit_shorten_link` | Shorten a URL with a specified CTA | ## Example prompts **Auto Hashtag** > Use Ritekit to auto hashtag and walk me through the result in plain English. **Banned Instagram Hashtags** > Use Ritekit to banned instagram hashtags and walk me through the result in plain English. **Detect Disposable Email** > Use Ritekit to detect disposable email and walk me through the result in plain English. **Detect Email Typo** > Use Ritekit to detect email typo 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 Ritekit working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Ritekit API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Ritekit 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 Ritekit. | 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 Ritekit actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 14 tools for Ritekit are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Ritekit 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 Ritekit in the browser, and the 14 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Ritekit key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure Ritekit 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 Ritekit 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 Ritekit tools Ritekit 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 Ritekit 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. ### Ritekit 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 Ritekit has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Ritekit integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Ritekit: link your Ritekit account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Ritekit API through 14 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Ritekit to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Ritekit skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Ritekit. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Ritekit key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Ritekit to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Ritekit in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Ritekit 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 Ritekit working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Ritekit skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Ritekit, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Ritekit is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog.
