What is LNbits Wallet Manager?
The LNbits Wallet Manager is a robust tool designed to give AI agents the ability to interact with the Bitcoin Lightning Network. By leveraging the LNbits API, this skill allows for sophisticated financial automation, including real-time balance monitoring, payment settlement, and invoice generation. It is built with a focus on security, ensuring that agents can participate in the circular economy without compromising sensitive credentials.
As part of the broader ecosystem of Openclaw Skills, this integration provides a standardized interface for Lightning operations. Whether you are building an automated tipping bot or a programmatic payment gateway, this skill ensures that your agent follows strict confirmation protocols before moving funds, making it both powerful and safe for production environments.
LNbits Wallet Manager Use Cases
- Automating micro-payments for digital services and API access.
- Creating dynamic payment requests for AI-driven e-commerce workflows.
- Managing project-based funding and automated disbursement of Satoshis.
- Integrating Bitcoin rewards into community engagement bots.
How LNbits Wallet Manager Works
- The AI agent initializes the connection using the LNbits API Key and Base URL environment variables.
- For outgoing payments, the agent first decodes the Bolt11 invoice to verify the recipient and amount.
- A mandatory confirmation step is triggered to ensure human oversight before any satoshis are sent.
- For incoming funds, the agent generates a unique Bolt11 invoice which is then presented to the user or client.
- The agent monitors the wallet state using the balance command to confirm transaction success.
LNbits Wallet Manager Setup
To enable this skill, you must provide your LNbits credentials as environment variables. If you do not have a wallet, you can generate one using the CLI tool included in Openclaw Skills.
export LNBITS_BASE_URL=https://demo.lnbits.com
export LNBITS_API_KEY=your_admin_key_here
To create a new wallet on the demo server:
python3 scripts/lnbits_cli.py create --name "Agent Wallet"
