# How to connect Stormglass Io to OpenClaw (paste one key, 6 tools) > Connect Stormglass Io to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Stormglass Io key once and 6 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/stormglass-io The usual route to Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Stormglass Io in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Stormglass Io** — 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 stormglass-io # connect Stormglass Io (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions stormglass-io # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run stormglass-io --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 Stormglass Io in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Stormglass Io API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Pull the relevant data from Stormglass Io, 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 Stormglass Io is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 6 Stormglass Io tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Stormglass Io to OpenClaw and exposes 6 Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/stormglass-io) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Stormglass Io integration can do 6 Stormglass Io tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. ### All 6 Stormglass Io tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get elevation point** `stormglass_io_get_elevation_point` | Fetch elevation data for a single geographic point | | **Get tide extremes point** `stormglass_io_get_tide_extremes_point` | Retrieve high and low tide times with corresponding sea level heights for a coordinate | | **Get tide stations area** `stormglass_io_get_tide_stations_area` | List tide stations within a defined geographic bounding box | | **Get tide stations list** `stormglass_io_get_tide_stations_list` | List all available tide stations | | **Stormglass get solar point** `stormglass_io_stormglass_get_solar_point` | Fetch solar irradiation and sun-position data for a specific coordinate | | **Stormglass get weather point** `stormglass_io_stormglass_get_weather_point` | Fetch marine and land weather data for a specific coordinate | ## Example prompts **Get Elevation Point** > Pull the relevant data from Stormglass Io, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Tide Extremes Point** > Pull the relevant data from Stormglass Io, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Tide Stations Area** > Pull the relevant data from Stormglass Io, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Tide Stations List** > Pull the relevant data from Stormglass Io, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. ## 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 Stormglass Io working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Stormglass Io API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io. | 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 Stormglass Io actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 6 tools for Stormglass Io are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io in the browser, and the 6 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Stormglass Io key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io tools Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io 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. ### Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Stormglass Io integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Stormglass Io: link your Stormglass Io account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Stormglass Io API through 6 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Stormglass Io to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Stormglass Io skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Stormglass Io. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Stormglass Io key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Stormglass Io to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Stormglass Io in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Stormglass Io 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 Stormglass Io working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Stormglass Io skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Stormglass Io, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Stormglass Io 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 - [OpenClaw GitHub integration](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/github) — Manage repositories, issues, pull requests, and workflows - [PagerDuty](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/pagerduty) — Manage incidents, on-call schedules, and services - [Connect SafetyCulture](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/safetyculture) — SafetyCulture (formerly iAuditor) is a workplace operations platform that enables teams to conduct digital inspections, manage audits, track issues, schedule tasks, and maintain compliance through mobile and web applications.
