Tasker (Android) OpenClaw Integration
Basic Information
- Project Name: OpenClaw Tasker/Android Automation Integration
- Platform: Android (Tasker, Automate, MacroDroid)
- Related Projects: AnyClaw (OpenClaw + Codex CLI Native Android App)
- Installation Method: Termux + proot-distro
- Type: Mobile Automation Integration
Product Description
OpenClaw achieves rich automation integration on Android through Tasker (and similar automation tools). The core principle is that Tasker triggers Webhooks to the local OpenClaw Gateway based on Android events (calendar notifications, location changes, etc.), and the AI agent then executes corresponding tasks.
The DoneClaw community has released detailed guides on connecting OpenClaw to Tasker. This integration model is applicable to any automation app capable of sending HTTP requests, with Tasker being the most commonly used, and Automate and MacroDroid also supported.
Additionally, the AnyClaw project enables native operation of OpenClaw + Codex CLI on Android, requiring no root access or Termux, and can be used with a single APK.
