openclaw-deal-scout

Autonomous Gmail-to-CRM deal pipeline for solo operators. Classifies inbound deal emails with Gemini, logs them to a free HubSpot CRM, notifies on Discord, and sends approved replies during UK business hours. Zero hosted infrastructure — runs as a single local MCP gateway.

Autonomous inbox-to-CRM deal pipeline for solo operators and small teams — zero hosted infrastructure, zero monthly bill. Watches a Gmail inbox, classifies inbound emails as genuine deals vs. noise with Gemini, logs confirmed deals to a free-tier HubSpot CRM, notifies the operator on Discord, and — once a reply is approved — sends it via the Gmail API during UK business hours (Mon–Fri 09:00–17:00 Europe/London, DST-aware).

Full source, architecture decision records, and setup docs live in the GitHub repository. The project's source code is proprietary; this skill only documents how to run and operate it — it does not grant any license to the underlying code.

When to use this skill

Reach for this when an operator wants to:

• Automatically triage a Gmail inbox for genuine business-deal inquiries
• Log confirmed deals into HubSpot without manual data entry
• Get a Discord ping the moment a real deal lands, then approve/send a reply without leaving Discord or the dashboard

Setup

bash

git clone https://github.com/AsmaIqbal01/openclaw-deal-scout.git
cd openclaw-deal-scout
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate   # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"

cp .env.example .env
# Fill in: GMAIL_CREDENTIALS_PATH, GEMINI_API_KEY, HUBSPOT_PRIVATE_APP_TOKEN,
#          NOTIFIER=discord, DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL

pytest -q                    # 489 passing, 9 skipped
python -m openclaw_gateway   # starts the MCP gateway + scheduler

The gateway listens on http://127.0.0.1:18790 by default (GATEWAY_HOST/GATEWAY_PORT to override).

MCP tools exposed by the gateway

Tool	Purpose
run_cycle	Trigger one pipeline cycle (intake → classify → CRM → notify → schedule/send) on demand
get_pipeline_cycles	Read recent cycle summaries from pipeline.log
get_deals	Read deal records from the state store, filterable by status
get_quota_usage	Estimated Gemini quota used for the current UTC day

CLI shortcuts: openclaw gateway status, openclaw doctor, openclaw dashboard.

Constraints an agent should respect

• Every external dependency (Gmail, Gemini, HubSpot, Discord) has a free tier; don't suggest paid tiers or hosted alternatives as a "fix" for quota limits — zero infrastructure cost is a product requirement, not a default.
• The state store is a single JSON file, not a database — don't propose migrating it unless the operator explicitly asks.
• Email sends are gated to UK business hours by design; don't suggest bypassing the scheduler to send immediately.
