Kimai Time Tracking Skill

Complete API integration for Kimai time-tracking software. Enables full control over timesheets, projects, customers, activities, teams, invoices, and system configuration.

When to use

Activate this skill when the user requests: Start/stop/restart time tracking (timers) List, filter, or export timesheets Manage customers, projects, or activities Create invoices or export data Administrative tasks (users, teams, rates) Query system status (version, plugins, config) Activation triggers: Keywords: "kimai", "zeiterfassung", "timesheet", "timer", "stunden", "erfasse Zeit", "starte Tracking", "Projekt anlegen", "Rechnung erstellen" "Start tracking for project X" "Show my timesheets from last week" "Create new customer in Kimai" "Export timesheets to CSV" "List all active timers" "Stop current time tracking" Do NOT activate for: General time questions ("What time is it?") Other time-tracking tools (Toggl, Clockify, etc.) Calendar/scheduling without Kimai context

Environment Setup

Required Environment Variables: KIMAI_BASE_URL - Full URL to Kimai instance (e.g., https://kimai.example.com) KIMAI_API_TOKEN - Bearer token for authentication Optional: KIMAI_WORKSPACE - Path for exports/temp files (defaults to ~/.openclaw/workspace/kimai) API Permissions required depend on operation: view_own_timesheet, create_own_timesheet, edit_own_timesheet, delete_own_timesheet view_other_timesheet (for viewing other users' entries) view_customer, edit_customer, delete_customer view_project, edit_project, delete_project view_activity, edit_activity, delete_activity view_team, edit_team, create_team, delete_team view_invoice (for invoice operations) view_user (for user management) Compatibility: Requires Kimai 2.x with REST API enabled. Internet access required. Linux/macOS supported.

1. Quick Time Tracking

# List recent activities (to find project/activity IDs) ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets recent # Start tracking ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets start --project 1 --activity 5 --description "Implementing API" # Check active timers ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets active # Stop tracking ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets stop --id 123

2. Data Management Workflow

# Create customer โ†’ Project โ†’ Activity hierarchy ./scripts/kimai_cli.py customers create --name "Acme Corp" --country DE --currency EUR --timezone Europe/Berlin ./scripts/kimai_cli.py projects create --name "Website Redesign" --customer 1 ./scripts/kimai_cli.py activities create --name "Development" --project 1 # List with filters ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets list --customer 1 --begin "2024-01-01T00:00:00" --exported 0

3. Export/Invoice Workflow

# Mark timesheets as exported (locks them) ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets export --id 123 # List invoices ./scripts/kimai_cli.py invoices list --status pending --begin 2024-01-01T00:00:00

CLI Tool Reference

Use scripts/kimai_cli.py for all operations. Structure follows API endpoints:

Timesheets (timesheets)

list - List entries (supports pagination, filters: user, customer, project, activity, tags, date range, exported status) get <id> - Fetch single entry create - Create manual entry or start timer (omit --end for active tracking) update <id> - Patch existing entry delete <id> - Requires confirmation (destructive) stop <id> - Stop active timer restart <id> - Restart finished entry (creates new) duplicate <id> - Copy entry (resets export status) active - List currently running timers recent - Recent unique working sets (last activity per project/activity combination) export <id> - Toggle export/lock status

Customers (customers)

list - List customers (filter: visible, term) get <id> - Fetch customer details create - Create new customer update <id> - Update customer delete <id> - Requires confirmation (cascades to projects/activities/timesheets) meta <id> - Update custom fields rates <id> - Manage customer-specific rates

Projects (projects)

list - List projects (filter: customer, visible, date range) get <id> - Fetch project create - Create project (requires customer ID) update <id> - Update project delete <id> - Requires confirmation (cascades to activities/timesheets) rates <id> - Manage project rates

Activities (activities)

list - List activities (filter: project, visible, global only) get <id> - Fetch activity create - Create activity (can be global or project-specific) update <id> - Update activity delete <id> - Requires confirmation (cascades to timesheets) rates <id> - Manage activity rates

Teams (teams)

list, get, create, update, delete member-add <team-id> <user-id> - Add team member member-remove <team-id> <user-id> - Remove member grant-customer <team-id> <customer-id> - Grant customer access grant-project <team-id> <project-id> - Grant project access grant-activity <team-id> <activity-id> - Grant activity access

Users (users)

list - List users (requires view_user permission) me - Current user info get <id> - User details create - Create user (admin) update <id> - Update user

Invoices (invoices)

list - List invoices (filter: date range, customer, status) get <id> - Invoice details

System (system)

ping - Test connectivity version - Kimai version info plugins - Installed plugins config - Timesheet configuration colors - Color codes

Safety & Boundaries

โš ๏ธ DESTRUCTIVE OPERATIONS delete operations on customers, projects, activities, timesheets, teams, or tags require explicit user confirmation. Deleting customers cascades to all linked projects, activities, and timesheets [1]. Deleting projects cascades to activities and timesheets [1]. The CLI will show a preview of affected data and require "yes" confirmation. API Security: API token is passed via Authorization: Bearer header [1]. Token is never logged or stored in CLI output. Use --dry-run flag for testing (simulates API calls without executing). Rate Limiting & Pagination: API returns paginated results (default 50 items) [1]. CLI auto-handles pagination for list commands (fetches all pages or respects --limit). Use --page and --size for manual pagination control. Data Privacy: Timesheet data may contain sensitive information. Export files are saved to workspace with restricted permissions (600). Redact personal data (emails, names) when sharing debug output. Workspace Safety: All file exports (CSV, JSON) default to KIMAI_WORKSPACE or ~/.openclaw/workspace/kimai. Never write to system directories outside workspace without explicit confirmation.

Input/Output Specifications

Inputs: Entity IDs (integers) ISO 8601 datetime strings (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss) JSON data for create/update operations (via --json file or CLI args) Filter parameters (customer, project, activity IDs, date ranges, visibility) Outputs: JSON (default, pipe-friendly) Table format (--format table for human readability) CSV (--format csv for exports) Exit codes: 0 (success), 1 (API error), 2 (validation error), 3 (cancelled by user) Success Criteria: HTTP 200/201 for successful operations Valid JSON response structure matching API schemas [1] For exports: File created in workspace with expected record count

Start tracking with description

./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets create \ --project 5 \ --activity 12 \ --description "Client meeting - requirements analysis" \ --tags "meeting,urgent"

List and export non-exported hours

# Find billable hours not yet exported ./scripts/kimai_cli.py timesheets list \ --exported 0 \ --billable 1 \ --begin "2024-01-01T00:00:00" \ --end "2024-01-31T23:59:59" \ --format csv > january_hours.csv

Update custom fields (meta)

./scripts/kimai_cli.py customers meta 42 \ --name "order_number" \ --value "PO-2024-001"

Create team and assign resources

./scripts/kimai_cli.py teams create --name "Development Team" --members '[{"user": 1, "teamlead": true}]' ./scripts/kimai_cli.py teams grant-project 1 5

Error Handling

Common HTTP codes: 200 - Success 201 - Created 204 - No content (successful delete) 400 - Bad request (validation error, missing fields) 401 - Unauthorized (invalid/expired token) 403 - Forbidden (insufficient permissions) 404 - Not found (invalid ID) 409 - Conflict (overlapping timesheet if not allowed by config) CLI behavior: Validates required fields before API call (e.g., project+activity for timesheets [1]) Pretty-prints validation errors from API Suggests fixes (e.g., "Did you mean to use 'PATCH' instead of DELETE? Try setting visible=false to hide instead of delete")
