Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Clockify with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Clockify via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

For exact tool slugs and parameter tables, see the tool catalog in the Composio docs.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • Programmatic tool calling allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
  • Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1700+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Clockify with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Clockify from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

bash
openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

bash
openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

What is the Clockify MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Clockify MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Clockify account. It provides structured and secure access to your team's time tracking data, so your agent can perform actions like managing clients, handling workspace users, setting up webhooks, and retrieving workspace details on your behalf.

  • Workspace user management: Let your agent list all users in a workspace, filter users by advanced criteria, or find team managers for more efficient team organization.
  • Client creation and deletion: Easily create new clients or remove existing ones from your workspace, streamlining project onboarding and cleanup.
  • Webhook automation: Enable your agent to create, delete, and manage webhooks for real-time notifications and integrations with other tools.
  • Workspace overview and navigation: Retrieve a list of all workspaces you belong to, empowering your agent to access and organize time tracking across multiple teams or projects.
  • Addon and webhook token management: Generate new webhook tokens and list all addon webhooks, ensuring secure and automated integrations with third-party services.
