What this skill does

This skill communicates with the following external services:

Why it matters

Token refresh is handled automatically so queries don't silently fail after the 20-minute ESI access token expiry.

Typical use cases

  • Check current ISK wallet balance and recent transactions
  • Monitor skill queue and see when the next skill completes
  • Audit all assets spread across stations and space
  • Get Discord or Telegram alerts when a war declaration targets your corporation
  • Track active market orders and detect significant price shifts

Source instructions

Data Handling

This skill communicates with the following external services:

  • EVE Online ESI API (esi.evetech.net) — all character and universe data queries
  • EVE SSO (login.eveonline.com) — OAuth2 authentication and token refresh
  • zKillboard API (zkillboard.com/api/) — optional, for PVP threat assessment data (public, no auth required)
  • Telegram Bot API — optional, user-configured via TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN for alert notifications
  • Discord Webhooks — optional, user-configured via DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL for alert notifications

No character data is sent to third-party servers beyond the above. Telegram/Discord only transmit alerts defined by the user.

EVE Online ESI

The ESI (EVE Swagger Interface) is the official REST API for EVE Online third-party development.

Skill Location

All scripts live at: ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/

Always use full paths when calling scripts:

SKILL=~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi

Authentication

Tokens are stored in ~/.openclaw/eve-tokens.json (created by auth_flow.py, chmod 600). All scripts (get_token.py, esi_query.py) read from this file directly — no env vars are required for normal operation.

First-time setup (once per character):

# 1. Set up SSH tunnel on your local PC:
#    ssh -L 8080:127.0.0.1:8080 user@your-server -N
# 2. Run auth flow on server (pass Client ID directly):
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/auth_flow.py --client-id <YOUR_CLIENT_ID> --char-name main
# 3. Open the shown URL in browser, log in with EVE account

Get a fresh access token (tokens expire after ~20min, refresh is automatic):

TOKEN=$(python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/get_token.py --char main)

List authenticated characters:

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/get_token.py --list

For full OAuth2/PKCE details: see references/authentication.md.

More endpoints

For contracts, fittings, mail, industry, killmails, market orders, mining, planetary interaction, loyalty points, notifications, blueprints, standings, and all other character endpoints, see references/endpoints.md.

Dashboard Config

The skill supports a modular dashboard config for alerts, reports, and market tracking. Each user defines what they need in a JSON config file.

Features

ModuleDescription
AlertsReal-time polling for war decs, structure attacks, skill completions, wallet changes, industry jobs, PI extractors, killmails, contracts, clone jumps, mail
ReportsCron-scheduled summaries: net worth, skill queue, industry, market orders, wallet, assets
MarketPrice tracking with absolute thresholds and trend detection

Security

Tokens should not be stored in plain text. Use environment variable references:

{
  "token": "$ENV:EVE_TOKEN_MAIN",
  "refresh_token": "$ENV:EVE_REFRESH_MAIN"
}

The config file should live outside the workspace (e.g. ~/.openclaw/eve-dashboard-config.json).

Validate a config

python scripts/validate_config.py path/to/config.json

# Show example config
python scripts/validate_config.py --example

# Show JSON schema
python scripts/validate_config.py --schema

Using the query script

SKILL=~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi
# Replace 'main' with your --char-name if you authenticated under a different name.
TOKEN=$(python3 $SKILL/scripts/get_token.py --char main)
# get_token.py --char-id prints just the character ID for the named character.
CHAR_ID=$(python3 $SKILL/scripts/get_token.py --char main --char-id 2>/dev/null) || \
CHAR_ID=$(python3 -c "import json, os, pathlib; p = pathlib.Path(os.environ.get('OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR', os.path.expanduser('~/.openclaw'))) / 'eve-tokens.json'; d = json.loads(p.read_text(encoding='utf-8')); chars = d.get('characters', {}); char = chars.get('main') or next(iter(chars.values()), None); print(char['character_id'] if char else '')")

# Simple query
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/wallet/" --pretty

# Fetch all pages of assets
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/assets/" --pages --pretty

# POST request (e.g. asset names)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/assets/names/" \

Best practices

  • Caching: respect the Expires header; do not poll before it expires.
  • Error limits: monitor X-ESI-Error-Limit-Remain; back off when low.
  • User-Agent: always set a descriptive User-Agent with contact info.
  • Rate limits: some endpoints (mail, contracts) have internal rate limits returning HTTP 520.
  • Pagination: check the X-Pages response header; iterate with ?page=N.
  • Versioning: use /latest/ for current stable routes. /dev/ may change without notice.

Threat Assessment & Route Planning

The skill provides threat intelligence for PI systems in low/null-sec space. Data sources: ESI (kills, jumps, FW, incursions) and zKillboard (PVP activity).

ESI Threat Endpoints

SKILL=~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi

# System kills (last hour) — all or filtered
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action system_kills --pretty
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action system_kills --system-ids 30002537,30045337 --pretty

# System jump traffic (last hour)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action system_jumps --system-ids 30045337 --pretty

# System info (name, security status)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action system_info --system-id 30002537 --pretty

# Route planning (flags: secure, shortest, insecure)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action route_plan --origin 30000142 --destination 30002537 --route-flag secure --pretty

# Character location (requires auth)
TOKEN=$(python3 $SKILL/scripts/get_token.py --char main)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action character_location --token "$TOKEN" --character-id $CHAR_ID --pretty

# Faction warfare systems
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action fw_systems --pretty

# Active incursions
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --action incursions --pretty

Threat Assessment Scripts (Workspace)

Hinweis: Die Workspace-Skripte (threat_query.py, cache_threat_data.py, cache_market_prices.py) sind Referenz-Beschreibungen und müssen erst im Agent-Workspace erstellt werden, bevor sie genutzt werden können.

These scripts live in ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/ (not in the skill repo):

# Threat level for specific systems
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/threat_query.py --action threat_assessment --system-ids 30002537,30045337

# Threat for all PI systems across all characters
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/threat_query.py --action threat_assessment_pi

# Route with per-system threat annotation
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/threat_query.py --action route_annotated --origin 30000142 --destination 30002537

# Route from character's current location
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/threat_query.py --action route_annotated --character main --destination 30045337

# Full PI + Threat morning briefing
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/threat_query.py --action pi_briefing

Threat Levels

LevelScoreMeaning
low0-15Normaler PI-Betrieb
medium15-40Schnell rein, schnell raus
high40-80Nur mit Scout/Cloak
critical80+NICHT reinfliegen

Threat Cache

Threat data is cached in Redis (30min TTL for ESI, 1h for zKillboard). The cache is updated every 30 minutes via cron:

# Update cache manually
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/cache_threat_data.py

# Show cached threat data
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/cache_threat_data.py --check

Resolving type IDs

ESI returns numeric type IDs (e.g. for ships, items, skills). Resolve names via:

# Single type
curl -s "https://esi.evetech.net/latest/universe/types/587/"

# Bulk names (up to 1000 IDs)
curl -s -X POST "https://esi.evetech.net/latest/universe/names/" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '[587, 638, 11393]'
