OpenClaw plugin for Xbox Live via xbl.io — profiles, presence, achievements, Game Pass, title history, DVR media, clubs, and sessions
Install
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@jbeaumont/openclaw-xboxopenclaw-xbox
An OpenClaw plugin that brings Xbox Live data into your AI assistant via the xbl.io API — profiles, presence, achievements, Game Pass, title history, DVR media, clubs, and sessions.
Read-only by default. State-changing actions (add/remove friend, send message) are strictly opt-in.
Prerequisites
- OpenClaw gateway
>=2026.3.24-beta.2 - An xbl.io account (free tier: 150 requests/hour)
Install
From ClawHub (recommended)
ClawHub is OpenClaw's plugin registry:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@jbeaumont/openclaw-xbox
From git
openclaw plugins install git:github.com/jbeaumont/openclaw-xbox
Configure
1. Get an xbl.io API key
- Go to xbl.io and sign in with your Microsoft account — this links your Xbox Live account.
- Open API Keys in the dashboard and copy your key.
2. Set the key
openclaw config set plugins.entries.openclaw-xbox.config.apiKey YOUR_KEY_HERE
That's it — setting the key auto-enables the plugin (no separate
plugins enable step). Prefer not to store the key in config? Set the
OPENCLAW_XBOX_API_KEY environment variable instead. Then restart the gateway.
The plugin also registers an xbl-io provider with OpenClaw's setup flow, so
openclaw onboard can prompt you for this key as part of guided setup if you
prefer that over config set.
The plugin is startup-lazy: it loads on demand when you use /xbox or when its
config is present, so it adds no cost to gateway startup until you actually use it.
3. Verify
/xbox setup
This confirms your key is valid and shows your gamertag and gamerscore.
Commands
Use /xbox directly in your OpenClaw chat:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/xbox help | List all available commands |
/xbox setup | Verify your API key and connection |
/xbox profile | Your Xbox profile and gamerscore |
/xbox friends | Friends list with online status |
/xbox search <gamertag> | Look up any player by gamertag |
/xbox achievements | Your achievement progress across all titles |
/xbox gamepass [pc|ea] | Game Pass catalog (optionally PC or EA Play) |
/xbox sessions | Active sessions and party members |
Agent tools
Once the plugin is enabled with a valid key, these tools are available to the agent
automatically. They are additive — you do not need to swap your tools.profile
or grant a broad toolset (see Troubleshooting).
Read-only
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
xbox_my_profile | Your own profile — gamertag, XUID, gamerscore, tier |
xbox_search_player | Look up any player by gamertag |
xbox_friends_presence | All friends' online status and what they're playing |
xbox_player_presence | Presence for a specific player by XUID |
xbox_player_presence_by_gamertag | Search + presence in one call |
xbox_my_achievements | Your achievements across all titles |
xbox_player_achievements | Another player's achievements (optional title filter) |

Write tools (opt-in)
Disabled by default. To enable:
openclaw config set plugins.entries.openclaw-xbox.config.enableWriteTools true
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
xbox_add_friend | Add a player to your friends list |
xbox_remove_friend | Remove a player from your friends list |
xbox_send_message | Send a message to a player |
These tools are owner-only and each requires an explicit confirm flag, so the
agent cannot change state without a deliberate, confirmed step.
Troubleshooting
Agent says a tool isn't available
If you run a restrictive tools.profile (an exclusive allowlist), the plugin's tools
may not be included. Add this plugin's tools alongside your existing setup rather
than replacing it — do not swap to group:default just for this plugin:
# keep whatever you already allow, and add the plugin's tools:
openclaw config set tools.allow '["...your existing tools...", "openclaw-xbox"]'
Then restart the gateway.
Rate limited
The free xbl.io tier allows 150 requests/hour. Responses are cached for 60s to reduce calls; if you hit the limit the plugin reports how long to wait.
