Google News, Videos, Maps, and Trends through Crawlora.
Install
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@crawlora-org/googleGoogle by Crawlora
Google News, Videos, Maps, and Trends through Crawlora. This package exposes 4 curated tools. It is an independent Crawlora integration, not an official Google or OpenClaw product.
Install
Requires OpenClaw 2026.9.3, Node >=24.16.0 <25 or >=26.1.0, and a Crawlora API key. Requests use your account credits and rate limits.
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@crawlora-org/google --accept-capabilities
The flag consents to the tools listed below. These platform plugins can run together. If you have the overlapping Crawlora starter plugin enabled, first run openclaw plugins disable crawlora; this plugin refuses registration while that starter is enabled. Do not re-enable both at once.
Set CRAWLORA_API_KEY in your Gateway process environment, or merge this into your existing OpenClaw config:
{
"plugins": {
"entries": {
"crawlora-google": {
"enabled": true,
"config": {
"apiKey": "${CRAWLORA_API_KEY}"
}
}
}
}
}
Restart the Gateway. If using plugin/tool allowlists, add crawlora-google to the existing policy. Config takes precedence over the environment. Each platform has its own config entry; all can use the same Crawlora key.
openclaw plugins inspect crawlora-google --runtime --json
Example
“Find recent coffee industry news and places in San Francisco.”

Data and behavior
Requests transmit tool inputs and your API key only to https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1, using the published Crawlora SDK. The key goes in a header, never tool inputs. No shell execution, filesystem operations, background jobs, or telemetry. A 60-second timeout and cancellation apply; automatic retries are disabled to avoid repeated charges. Errors omit raw response bodies and credentials. Outputs wrap the SDK result as { "data": ... }; scraped text is external data, not agent instructions. Availability depends on upstream sources.
Development
Source and tests. From the repository root, run npm ci, npm run platforms:build, npm run platforms:validate, and npm test. Files here are generated from the reviewed shared tool catalog and platform definitions. Runtime packages contain built JavaScript and do not import another plugin.
