Connect directly to any API using its OpenAPI spec with local API key storage, ensuring private, middleware-free requests from your machine.

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
freeAPI is a direct execution engine for OpenClaw. It bypasses middleware, gateways, and data harvesters. With freeAPI, your agent connects directly from localhost to any API using its official OpenAPI/Swagger specification.
Sovereign: You own the connection. No third-party server mediates your requests. Private: API keys stay in your local .env file. They are never sent to a gateway. Spec-Driven: Just provide an OpenAPI spec URL or file. freeAPI figures out the rest.
Agents should integrate freeAPI seamlessly into the conversation.
Do not ask users to run raw CLI commands unless they prefer it. Instead, guide them conversationally: Ask: "Which service do you want to connect? (e.g., GitHub, Stripe, OpenAI)" Prompt: "Please provide your API key for [Service]. I will save it securely to your local .env file." Action: Use the write or edit tool to append the key to .env. Format: SERVICE_NAME_KEY=value (e.g., GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_...) Confirm: "Key saved. You can now use freeAPI with [Service]."
When a user asks to perform an action (e.g., "Check my GitHub issues"): Locate Spec: Find the OpenAPI spec URL (e.g., https://api.github.com/openapi/v3). Check Keys: Verify the key exists in .env. If not, trigger the Onboarding flow above. Run: Use node skills/freeAPI/index.js run with the spec and parameters. Example Agent Thought Process: User wants to list Stripe payments. I need the Stripe OpenAPI spec. I'll check .env for STRIPE_SECRET_KEY. It's missing. I will ask the user for it now, then save it, then run the listPayments operation.
For power users who prefer the terminal, the CLI is available. Setup: node skills/freeAPI/index.js setup (Interactive checklist) Run: node skills/freeAPI/index.js run ...
Middleware services introduce latency, dependency, and privacy risks. freeAPI eliminates these by running entirely on your machine.
