What is Sidetracker AI Agent Skill?

The Sidetracker skill for Openclaw Skills provides a sophisticated bridge between AI coding agents and the Sidetracker productivity ecosystem. By leveraging the Membrane framework, this skill allows agents to programmatically interact with tasks, projects, and timers without the overhead of manual credential management. It is designed for developers and teams who need to streamline their workflow and maintain high focus by delegating administrative tracking tasks to an intelligent assistant.

This integration simplifies complex API interactions into executable actions, ensuring that your AI agent can monitor time spent on various tasks, organize project notes, and manage goals effectively. Whether you are using it for personal time auditing or team-wide project oversight, this skill ensures that Openclaw Skills can act as a fully synchronized extension of your productivity suite.

Sidetracker AI Agent Skill Use Cases

  • Automating the creation and management of tasks and project notes based on coding activity.
  • Real-time monitoring and starting/stopping of timers via AI commands.
  • Organizing productivity data using tags and filters to identify workflow bottlenecks.
  • Generating reports on how time is spent across different organizations and pipelines.
  • Seamlessly syncing project goals and user task lists within an AI-enhanced IDE.

How Sidetracker AI Agent Skill Works

  1. The AI agent utilizes the Membrane CLI to establish a secure connection to the Sidetracker API.
  2. Authentication is handled through a localized login flow that supports both interactive and headless environments.
  3. The agent searches for specific actions using natural language intents to find the most efficient way to execute a request.
  4. Commands are dispatched through the Membrane gateway, which automatically injects required headers and handles token refreshes.
  5. If pre-built actions are insufficient, the agent uses a secure proxy to send direct requests to Sidetracker endpoints while maintaining security protocols.

Sidetracker AI Agent Skill Setup

To get started with this integration on Openclaw Skills, follow these installation steps:

Install the Membrane CLI globally:

npm install -g @membranehq/cli@latest

Authenticate your agent (replace <agentType> with openclaw):

membrane login --tenant --clientName=openclaw

Ensure a connection to the Sidetracker service:

membrane connection ensure "https://sidetracker.io/" --json

If the connection state is BUILDING, wait for it to be ready:

npx @membranehq/cli connection get <connection_id> --wait --json
