What is Addis Assistant?

The Addis Assistant skill is a specialized tool within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem designed to bridge the gap in Ethiopian language processing. It provides seamless access to the Addis Assistant API, enabling AI agents to process Amharic audio and translate text with high precision. This skill is essential for developers looking to build localized solutions or handle multilingual data involving Amharic.

By integrating this capability, Openclaw Skills users can transform complex audio recordings into actionable text or translate content across language pairs, such as Amharic to English. The skill focuses on reliability and ease of use, offering dedicated scripts for both Speech-to-Text (STT) and translation tasks through a unified authentication mechanism.

Addis Assistant Use Cases

  • Transcribing Amharic audio recordings into text for indexing or documentation.
  • Translating Amharic text into English for international communication.
  • Developing multilingual bots that require specific support for Ethiopian languages within the Openclaw Skills framework.
  • Automating the processing of voice-based feedback or media content in Amharic.

How Addis Assistant Works

  1. The AI agent or user identifies a need for transcription or translation and triggers the skill.
  2. The skill utilizes the provided x-api-key to authenticate requests against the Addis Assistant production API.
  3. For transcription, the audio file is sent to the v2/stt endpoint along with the appropriate language code.
  4. For translation, the source text and target language parameters are submitted to the v1/translate endpoint.
  5. The skill parses the API response and returns the resulting text to the user or subsequent Openclaw Skills workflows.

Addis Assistant Setup

To use this skill, you must have an active API key from Addis Assistant. Follow these steps to configure the environment:

# Navigate to the skill directory
cd addis-assistant

# Run the STT script
python scripts/stt.py --api-key YOUR_API_KEY --audio "/path/to/audio/file.wav"

# Run the translation script
python scripts/translate.py --api-key YOUR_API_KEY --text "ሰላም" --source am --target en

Addis Assistant Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill interacts with structured data for both inputs and outputs to ensure compatibility within Openclaw Skills pipelines:

Feature Input Type Required Parameters
STT Audio File audio, language_code (am)
Translation String text, source_language, target_language
Auth Header x-api-key

All scripts return JSON-formatted responses containing the processed text or error codes if the API request fails.

Addis Assistant Advanced Features

  • Direct Python script execution for CLI-based automation.
  • Support for Amharic-specific linguistic nuances in transcription.
  • Easy integration with multi-agent systems utilizing Openclaw Skills.
