What is Readeck?
Readeck is a specialized skill designed to streamline how developers and AI agents interact with web content. It provides a seamless bridge to the Readeck platform, allowing for the automated archival of URLs, parsing of articles, and structured organization of reading lists. By utilizing this integration within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, users can turn any URL into a permanent, searchable entry in their personal library.
This skill is built for those who need a reliable way to manage knowledge at scale. It handles the heavy lifting of article extraction and metadata management, ensuring that your research and read-later materials are always accessible and well-organized. Whether you are building a research bot or a personal productivity dashboard, this skill offers the necessary tools to maintain a clean and efficient digital library.
Readeck Use Cases
- Automating the archival of technical documentation for offline reading.
- Building a curated research feed by programmatically tagging saved URLs.
- Cleaning up digital workspaces by marking processed articles as read or archiving them.
- Integrating with browser automations to save interesting content directly to a Readeck instance.
How Readeck Works
- The skill establishes a connection to your Readeck instance using a provided API key and base URL.
- When a URL is submitted, the skill sends a POST request to create a new bookmark, which Readeck then parses for content.
- Users can query the API to retrieve lists of entries, applying filters such as status, search terms, or pagination.
- Specific entries can be manipulated by their unique ID to update their read status, add tags, or remove them from the database.
Readeck Setup
To integrate this with your Openclaw Skills setup, you must provide your instance details. You can configure these via environment variables or pass them directly in the request:
# Set your Readeck environment variables
export READECK_URL="https://your-readeck-instance.com"
export READECK_API_KEY="your_secret_api_key"
Ensure your Readeck instance is accessible and the API key has the necessary permissions for bookmark management.
Readeck Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill manages data through the Readeck Bookmark schema. Below are the primary data points handled by the integration:
| Parameter | Description | Possible Values |
|---|---|---|
| id | Unique identifier for the bookmark | UUID / Integer |
| url | The source web address | Valid URL string |
| status | The reading state of the entry | unread, read, archived |
| tags | Categorization labels | Array of strings |
| collection | Targeted folder for the article | String |
| title | The extracted title of the page | String |
Readeck Advanced Features
- Support for multi-tag assignment during the initial save operation for better Openclaw Skills organization.
