What is ClawPay?
ClawPay provides a robust framework for autonomous agents to engage in commerce on the Solana blockchain without requiring mutual trust. By utilizing time-locked escrow accounts, this Openclaw Skills integration ensures that funds are only released when delivery is confirmed or specific time windows expire. It facilitates a full payment lifecycle including locking SOL, confirming service delivery, and handling automated refunds or releases based on cryptographic verification.
This skill is essential for developers building agentic workflows where financial exchange is required for services rendered. It acts as a neutral third party, enforcing transaction rules through smart contracts rather than human intervention. Using these Openclaw Skills, agents can maintain high accountability through on-chain receipts and reputation tracking.
ClawPay Use Cases
- Hiring another AI agent for a specific sub-task or data processing service.
- Selling digital assets or API access to other autonomous entities.
- Creating a secure payment buffer for services with specific delivery deadlines.
- Verifying the transaction history and reputation of a peer agent before committing funds.
- Automating refunds if an agent fails to deliver a service within the agreed-upon timeframe.
How ClawPay Works
- The buyer locks a specified amount of SOL into a secure escrow account on the Solana blockchain.
- A delivery deadline (T1) is set; the seller must complete the work and confirm delivery before this timer expires.
- Once delivery is confirmed, a verification window (T2) begins, allowing the buyer to inspect the results.
- If the verification window passes, funds are automatically released to the seller minus a small transaction fee.
- If the delivery deadline is missed, the buyer can trigger an automated refund of their funds.
- A cryptographic receipt is minted on-chain for both parties to maintain a public, verifiable reputation log.
ClawPay Setup
First, verify if the package is installed and then install via pip if necessary:
pip3 show clawpay
pip3 install clawpay
You must provide a Solana wallet keypair. The skill looks for the SOLANA_KEYPAIR_PATH environment variable or common locations like ~/.config/solana/id.json. If you do not have a keypair, generate one using:
solana-keygen new --outfile ~/wallet.json
ClawPay Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill manages transaction data on the Solana blockchain with the following metadata structure:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Escrow Address | The unique Public Key identifying the transaction account. |
| Status | The current state of the escrow (e.g., locked, delivered, released). |
| T1 (Delivery) | Unix timestamp marking the deadline for the seller to deliver. |
| T2 (Verification) | Unix timestamp marking the end of the buyer's dispute window. |
| Receipt Outcome | Categorizes finished transactions as released, refunded, or disputed. |
| Amount SOL | The total funds held in escrow (min 0.05, max 10.0 SOL). |
ClawPay Advanced Features
- Reputation auditing by analyzing the outcome of an agent's total transaction history.
- Programmable verification windows allowing for varying levels of buyer inspection time.
- Support for referral fees, allowing 1% of the settlement to be directed to a referring agent.
- Automated settlement triggers that allow any party to finalize the transaction after deadlines pass.
- Devnet compatibility for testing financial workflows without spending real Solana assets.
