agentgate

API gateway for AI agents to access personal data with human-in-the-loop write approval.

  • Reads (GET) execute immediately
  • Writes (POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE) go through an approval queue
  • Bypass mode available for trusted agents (writes execute immediately)

Setup

agentgate server runs on a separate machine from OpenClaw. This is by design — your agent should not have direct access to the server holding your credentials. Install and run agentgate on a different computer (or VPS/container on a different host). See https://agentgate.org for setup instructions.

Once agentgate is running, configure these environment variables for your OpenClaw agent:

  • AGENT_GATE_URL — agentgate base URL (e.g., http://your-agentgate-host:3050)
  • AGENT_GATE_TOKEN — your agent's API key (create in the agentgate Admin UI → API Keys)

Authentication

All requests require the API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN

First Steps — Service Discovery

After connecting, discover what's available on your instance:

GET $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/agent_start_here
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN

Returns your agent's config, available services, accounts, and full API documentation.

Instance-Specific Skills

agentgate generates additional skills tailored to your instance with your specific accounts and endpoints. See the agentgate skills documentation for details on how to install and update them.

Supported Services

  • Code: GitHub, Jira
  • Social: Bluesky, Mastodon, LinkedIn
  • Search: Brave Search, Google Search
  • Personal: Google Calendar, YouTube, Fitbit

Reading Data

GET $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/{service}/{accountName}/{path}
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN

Example: GET $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/github/myaccount/repos/owner/repo

Writing Data

Writes go through the approval queue:

POST $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/queue/{service}/{accountName}/submit
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "requests": [
    {
      "method": "POST",
      "path": "/the/api/path",
      "body": { "your": "payload" }
    }
  ],
  "comment": "Explain what you are doing and why"
}

Always include a clear comment explaining your intent. Include links to relevant resources.

Check write status

GET $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/queue/{service}/{accountName}/status/{id}
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN

Statuses: pending → approved → executing → completed (or rejected/failed/withdrawn)

Withdraw a pending request

DELETE $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/queue/{service}/{accountName}/status/{id}
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN
Content-Type: application/json

{ "reason": "No longer needed" }

Binary uploads

For binary data (images, files), set binaryBase64: true in the request body:

{
  "method": "POST",
  "path": "com.atproto.repo.uploadBlob",
  "binaryBase64": true,
  "headers": { "Content-Type": "image/jpeg" },
  "body": "<base64 encoded data>"
}

Inter-Agent Messaging

Agents can message each other through agentgate for multi-agent coordination.

GET $AGENT_GATE_URL/api/agents/messageable
Authorization: Bearer $AGENT_GATE_TOKEN

Important Notes

  • Always include clear comments on write requests
  • Be patient with writes — approval requires human action

  • See agentgate docs for instance-specific skill setup
