@openlabor/cli

Browse, install, and pilot your OpenLabor AI employees from Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, and Windsurf.

15 employees across 8 departments. 25+ skills with full workflows. 35 missions on autopilot.

Install

npm install -g @openlabor/cli

Or use directly:

npx @openlabor/cli team

Pilot your team (requires account)

Chat with your AI employees running on OpenLabor. They execute work on the platform — the CLI is a remote control.

You need: An OpenLabor account and an API key (get one from Settings > API Keys in your dashboard).

openlabor login <api-key>
openlabor team
openlabor ask "Draft 3 tweet threads about our launch"
openlabor chat "Make the second one more casual"
openlabor ask cto "Review our auth module"
openlabor history

How it works

Your terminal                        OpenLabor platform
┌──────────────┐                    ┌───────────────────┐
│ openlabor    │   X-API-Key auth   │ Your org          │
│ ask          │ ──────────────────>│                   │
│ madison      │                    │ Madison (CMO)     │
│ "write       │                    │  ├─ skills        │
│  tweets"     │    employee reply  │  ├─ tools         │
│              │ <──────────────────│  └─ runs on       │
└──────────────┘                    │     OpenClaw      │
                                    └───────────────────┘

The CLI sends messages to your employees via the OpenLabor API. They reply using their skills, tools, and API credentials — all configured on the platform.

JSON output

For AI tool integrations, set OPENLABOR_JSON=1 for structured JSON:

OPENLABOR_JSON=1 openlabor ask madison "Write tweets"

Custom API URL

For self-hosted or local development:

openlabor login <api-key> --url http://localhost:4001

Try skills for free (no account needed)

Browse and install AI employee personas and skill workflows as local prompts. Works with any coding tool.

You need: Nothing. Everything is open source.

openlabor list employees                    # browse 15 AI employees
openlabor list skills                       # browse 25+ skills
openlabor search "logo"                     # search across both
openlabor install skill logo-maker          # auto-detects your tool
openlabor install employee cto              # install an AI persona

What gets installed

When you run openlabor install, a Markdown file is copied into your coding tool's config directory. This gives your AI assistant the employee's personality or the skill's step-by-step workflow as a local prompt.

This is not the same as piloting — the employee doesn't actually run on the platform. It's a way to try OpenLabor workflows for free before signing up.
