Brave API Setup
Automates Brave Search API key extraction and OpenClaw configuration.
Included Files
| File | Description | |------|-------------| | SKILL.md | This document | | scripts/apply-api-key.js | Applies API key to OpenClaw config (Node.js) |
Dependencies
- Node.js (for apply-api-key.js)
- OpenClaw browser capability (
browsertool)
When to Use
- User wants to enable
web_searchin OpenClaw - Error:
missing_brave_api_key - User asks to set up Brave Search API
Prerequisites
- User must have a Brave Search API account
- User must be logged in (openclaw browser profile)
- API key must exist in dashboard
Workflow
Step 1: Navigate to API keys page
browser(action="navigate", profile="openclaw",
targetUrl="https://api-dashboard.search.brave.com/app/keys")Step 2: Click reveal button (eye icon)
Take snapshot, find the reveal button, click it:
browser(action="act", kind="click", ref="")Step 3: Extract key via JavaScript (avoids LLM transcription error)
browser(action="act", kind="evaluate",
fn="(() => { const cells = document.querySelectorAll('td'); for (const cell of cells) { const text = cell.textContent?.trim(); if (text && text.startsWith('BSA') && !text.includes('•') && text.length > 20) return text; } return null; })()")The result field contains the exact API key.
Step 4: Apply to config (direct file write, no LLM involved)
Relative to skill directory:
node /scripts/apply-api-key.js ""Or use gateway config.patch with the extracted key.
Why This Approach
Problem: LLM can confuse similar characters when transcribing (O vs 0, l vs 1).
Solution:
evaluateextracts key via JavaScript → returns exact stringapply-api-key.jswrites directly to config → bit-perfect
The key never passes through LLM text generation.
