Installing the Bankr Skill

Add Bankr capabilities to your OpenClaw agent in one command.

Installation​

Install in OpenClaw

Tell your OpenClaw agent:

install the bankr skill from https://github.com/BankrBot/openclaw-skills

That's it. Your agent now has access to all Bankr features.

Your agent can help with setup

After installing the skill, your agent can walk you through login, LLM gateway configuration, and access controls. Just ask:

help me set up my Bankr API key and LLM gateway

What Gets Installed​

The Bankr skill enables your agent to:

  • Trade tokens across Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Unichain, and Solana
  • Launch tokens and earn trading fees
  • Set automations like DCA, limit orders, and stop-losses
  • Check balances and portfolio values
  • Query prices and market data
  • Place bets on Polymarket
  • Trade with leverage via Avantis

Try It Out​

After installation, test with these commands:

"what is the price of ETH?"
"what are my balances?"
"buy $5 of BNKR on base"

Use a Dedicated Agent Wallet​

Don't use your personal wallet

Create a separate Bankr account for your agent instead of using your main account. This isolates your personal funds from the agent's activity.

Your API key is tied to a Bankr wallet. If you give your agent your personal API key, it has access to your personal wallet and all its funds. Instead:

  1. Create a new Bankr account at bankr.bot specifically for the agent
  2. Generate an API key at bankr.bot/api
  3. Fund it with small amounts — only what the agent needs for its tasks
  4. Configure access controls — enable read-only mode if the agent only needs to query data, or add an IP allowlist to restrict where it can connect from

This way, if the key is compromised or the agent misbehaves, only the dedicated wallet is affected — not your personal holdings.

Agent use caseSetup
Portfolio monitoring, price alertsRead-only key, small or zero balance

See Access Control for full details on read-only mode, IP allowlisting, and rate limits.
