TaskTime Pro

TaskTime Pro helps freelancers and small teams manage client work from tasks and timers through expenses, quotes, invoices, and reports. This skill lets agents organize projects, find unbilled work, prepare drafts, review business data, manage multiple timers, set tasks, and open the right app screens while keeping sensitive actions visible and approval-gated.

Use this skill when a user asks you to work with TaskTime Pro through its local agent bridge: plan or update work, manage tasks and clients, track time, prepare invoice data, inspect reports, handle expenses, open app review screens, or recover agent setup.

Stay on the supported TaskTime Pro bridge surface. Do not directly edit browser storage, Yjs documents, Google Drive sync files, invoice records, billing state, or other persisted app data outside TaskTime Pro tools.

Skill Scope

This is the portable ClawHub skill for TaskTime Pro. It should guide agent clients that need safe TaskTime Pro access through MCP. If a repository or user environment also provides local TaskTime Pro instructions, read those too because they may contain the active app URL, workspace policy, or deployment-specific setup notes.

TaskTime Pro is local-first. The paired browser app is the authority for customer data, validation, navigation, downloads, email sends, sync behavior, backups, restore flows, and account deletion. The bridge is a same-device MCP stdio server that forwards approved commands to that visible app session; it is not a remote API.

Connection

Prefer the MCP server when the client exposes it. For a standalone install, the standard stdio command is:

json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tasktime": {
      "command": "tasktime-agent-bridge",
      "args": ["--app-url", "https://tasktime.pro"]
    }
  }
}

If the binary is not already installed, install the bridge package or let OpenClaw install it from the skill metadata:

bash

npm install -g @tasktimepro/agent-bridge

When installed through the TaskTime Pro OpenClaw bundle, use the bundle-provided MCP server instead of requiring a global binary. The bundle launches its vendored bridge through .mcp.json.

The user grants first-use access in TaskTime Pro under Account > Agent Access. Require a running, paired browser session before reading or mutating data. After pairing, call tools/list because available tools depend on the granted scopes. Default scopes are read, write, and navigation; optional scopes are billing, export, and email. Current TaskTime Pro app builds show scopes after connection; do not tell the user to select scopes in the app unless a future scope picker is visible.

OpenClaw may expose tools with the MCP server prefix, for example tasktime__list_projects instead of list_projects.

For OpenClaw-managed installs, do not ask the user to run tasktime-agent-bridge manually in Terminal. Pair TaskTime Pro to the active OpenClaw-owned MCP bridge only. The bridge exposes get_pairing_status and refresh_pairing; use those setup tools to get the exact endpoint, launch URL, stable agent identity, current pairing expiry, and session state. If a pairing code expired or was already used, call refresh_pairing and open the returned launch URL.

The OpenClaw bundle uses the stable agent identity tasktime.agent.openclaw with the label OpenClaw on this device. The WebSocket port is dynamic and must not be treated as identity. App sessions are intended to last through normal work sessions, while pairing codes stay short-lived and single-use. Within a running bridge process, browser reconnects resume with a memory-only app-session token; ask the user to re-pair only when status shows no paired session, the session expired, access was revoked, or the bridge process restarted.

Trusted chat approvals default to until revoked for stable same-device managed agents. Shorter trust durations may be available, but do not tell the user they must re-trust every 30 days unless they chose a 30-day grant.

Operating Workflow

1. Use MCP tools for TaskTime Pro data work. Use browser UI automation only for visual validation or unsupported workflows.
2. Inspect before changing data. Start with list, preview, or read tools before write, billing, export, email, restore, or delete tools.
3. For invoice and quote work, preview unbilled work before creating drafts, finalizing invoices, exporting PDFs, or sending email.
4. For navigation work, use open_* view tools to bring the user to the relevant visible app screen for review.
5. For approval-gated actions, use a valid exact-input TaskTime Pro approval token created through tasktime/create_approval_token, or let the browser-visible approval prompt handle the action. Do not reuse tokens for changed inputs.
6. Keep the user in control for invoice finalization, email sending, export, account data deletion, restore, sync wiping, and cascade deletes.

Useful First Tools

• list_projects, list_clients, and list_tasks to understand the current workspace.
• get_pairing_status and refresh_pairing for setup/recovery before app data tools are available.
• get_active_timers, start_timer, pause_timer, resume_timer, and stop_timer for time tracking.
• create_project, create_client, and create_task for normal setup and planning.
• list_expenses and expense category tools for expense review and entry.
• find_unbilled_time and preview_invoice_from_unbilled_work before invoice drafting.
• create_invoice_draft, preview_project_quote, and invoice/quote email tools only within granted scopes and approval rules.
• open_project_view, open_invoice_view, open_reports_view, and other navigation tools to put the user on review screens.

Recovery

If a tool call returns an unavailable app-session error with launch_tasktime, open or guide the user to TaskTime Pro, pair Account > Agent Access, then retry. Do not treat this as a generic MCP failure.

If get_pairing_status is available, inspect it before suggesting manual commands. If the status shows no paired app session, use its launchUrl; if the pairing is expired or consumed, call refresh_pairing and use the new launchUrl. Never pair the app to a separately launched terminal bridge when the MCP server is already OpenClaw-managed.

If tool availability does not match the task, call tools/list again and check granted scopes. Ask the user to adjust TaskTime Pro Agent Access only when the missing scope is actually needed.

For task-and-time-management workflows, prefer this sequence: inspect projects/tasks, create or choose the task, start the timer, let the user work, later check active timers and stop the matching timer. A timer can reasonably run for hours; do not assume the session should expire after a short chat turn.

Safety

• Never expose the bridge through public interfaces, tunnels, shared hosts, or remote control channels.
• Never mutate raw IndexedDB, Yjs documents, Google Drive sync files, invoice state, or billing state outside the TaskTime Pro bridge.
• Never ask the user to reset browser data, clear IndexedDB, or wipe Drive sync state as a normal fix.
• Never print pairing codes, approval tokens, authorization headers, exported account data, invoice PDFs, or email payloads unless the user explicitly asks for that artifact.
• Treat destructive, restore, billing, export, and email tools as high-impact operations: read or preview first, explain the intended action, then mutate only with explicit user intent and TaskTime Pro approval.
