Use this guide to set up Actionbook in OpenClaw.

Step 1: Install Actionbook CLI

curl -fsSL https://actionbook.dev/install.sh | bash
Re-run the same command to upgrade.

Step 2: Run actionbook setup

actionbook setup
During setup, make sure Skills are installed to OpenClaw global. Verify Actionbook is ready in OpenClaw:
openclaw skills check
Quick smoke test:
actionbook search "github repo stars" --domain github.com
You should see at least one result with an ID.

Step 3: Disable OpenClaw built-in browser and set browser workflow to Actionbook

Disable the built-in browser:
openclaw config set browser.enabled false --json
Then add this instruction to ~/.openclaw/workspace/TOOLS.md:
## Browser automation preference
- Use Actionbook CLI for all website/browser operations.
- Do not use the built-in OpenClaw browser tool unless explicitly asked.
- Follow: `actionbook search` -> `actionbook get` -> operate.
Apply changes:
openclaw gateway restart

Try it

Ask OpenClaw:
Visit github.com/actionbook/actionbook and tell me how many stars it has.
