What is Simplecast?

The Simplecast skill is designed to bridge the gap between AI agents and the Simplecast podcasting ecosystem. As part of the Openclaw Skills library, this integration allows developers to programmatically manage podcast episodes, feeds, and analytics without the overhead of manual authentication logic. It provides a secure layer to interact with podcast websites, listener subscriptions, and ad campaign data.

By leveraging this skill, users can automate the entire lifecycle of their podcasting content. From publishing new episodes to retrieving deep insights into listener behavior, the integration ensures that your AI agents have high-fidelity access to the Simplecast API. The skill is built on the Membrane framework, which optimizes token usage and provides a standardized way to execute complex workflows.

Simplecast Use Cases

  • Automating the upload and metadata management of new podcast episodes.
  • Generating automated reports on listener growth and episode performance analytics.
  • Synchronizing podcast feed updates with external CMS or social media platforms.
  • Managing ad campaign records and tracking sponsorship performance.
  • Auditing team member access and permissions across multiple podcast shows.

How Simplecast Works

  1. Install the Membrane CLI and authenticate using the Openclaw Skills agent type to set up the environment.
  2. Use the connection ensure command to link the agent to a valid Simplecast account via OAuth.
  3. Poll the connection state to ensure the secure handshake is complete and the API is ready for requests.
  4. Discover available actions by querying specific intents, such as fetching episode lists or listener stats.
  5. Execute pre-built actions or send proxy requests directly to Simplecast endpoints with automatic header injection.

First, install the necessary CLI tool:

npm install -g @membranehq/cli@latest

Authenticate your environment for Openclaw Skills:

membrane login --tenant --clientName=openclaw
