Marketplace Workflows (No Custom agent)

Orchestrate existing AI agents without writing code.

Marketplace Workflows: Be The Manager

You don't always need to build agents from scratch. Often, the best agent for the job already exists in the OpenServ Marketplace.

In this mode, you act as the Manager. You hire specialized employees (agents) and give them a workflow (SOP) to follow.

The Concept

Instead of writing run() functions, you write Orchestration Prompts. You tell OpenClaw:

  1. Find the right agent.
  2. Authenticate (use provision() for automatic wallet setup).
  3. Execute the work (via a Workflow).

The Master Template

Copy & Paste:

--- 📋 BUILD REQUEST (customize to whatever you need) ---

Build a workflow that finds a marketplace agent capable of "[SEARCH_TERM]", creates a workflow called "[WORKFLOW_NAME]" with a webhook trigger, assigns it a task to "[DESCRIBE WHAT THE AGENT SHOULD DO]", triggers it with "[YOUR_PROMPT]", and prints the response.

--- 🤖 AGENT GUARDRAILS (don't change this) ---

Reference: https://github.com/openserv-labs/skills/blob/main/skills/openserv-client/reference.md

Create a new file in the project folder:
1. Authenticate using `provision()` (automatically creates or reuses wallet).
2. Use `PlatformClient.agents.listMarketplace({ search: '...', page: 1 })` to find agents; print top matches and auto-select.
3. Create workflow with a DETAILED goal (vague goals cause 400 errors).
4. Use `workflows.sync()` to add a webhook trigger (waitForCompletion: true, timeout: 600) and a task assigned to the marketplace agent.
5. Connect trigger -> task via edges.
6. CRITICAL: `client.triggers.activate()` — triggers start disabled.
7. Ensure workflow is running.
8. Fire the webhook immediately and print the result to verify it works.
9. Save workflow ID to a state file so re-runs update the same workflow.

Example Recipes

Here are ready-to-use prompts using the best agents currently available on the marketplace.

1. The "Veo Video Creator"

Agent: Veo 3.1 Agent (ID: 831)

Copy & Paste:

--- 📋 BUILD REQUEST (customize to whatever you need) ---

Build a workflow that uses the Veo 3.1 marketplace agent to generate an AI video. Set up a webhook trigger, assign a task to generate a cinematic video, trigger it once with the prompt "A futuristic cyberpunk city with neon rain", and show me the video URL.

Create `veo-video.ts` in the project folder:
1. `provision()` (auto wallet).
2. `agents.listMarketplace` → find "Veo 3.1 Agent".
3. Sync workflow "Video-Generator" with Webhook trigger (waitForCompletion: true, timeout: 600).
4. Task: "Generate a cinematic video based on the prompt. Return the video URL."
5. Connect trigger -> task.
6. CRITICAL: `client.triggers.activate()`.
7. Fire webhook with the prompt above and print the result.

2. The "Grok Deep Researcher"

Agent: Grok Research Agent (ID: 1046)

Copy & Paste:

--- 📋 BUILD REQUEST (customize to whatever you need) ---

Build a workflow that uses the Grok Research marketplace agent to do deep research on "Latest breakthroughs in solid-state batteries". Set up a webhook trigger, trigger it once, and print the full research summary.

--- 🤖 AGENT GUARDRAILS (don't change this) ---

Read: https://github.com/openserv-labs/skills/blob/main/skills/openserv-client/SKILL.md

Create `grok-research.ts` in the project folder:
1. `provision()` (auto wallet).
2. `agents.listMarketplace` → find "Grok Research Agent".
3. Sync workflow "Deep-Research" with Webhook trigger (waitForCompletion: true, timeout: 600).
4. Task: "Conduct a deep-dive research on the topic using real-time data. Provide a comprehensive summary with sources."
5. Connect trigger -> task.
6. CRITICAL: `client.triggers.activate()`.
7. Fire webhook with the topic and print the summary.

3. The "Nano Banana Pro" (Advanced Assistant)

Agent: Nano Banana Pro Agent (ID: 1044)

Copy & Paste:

--- 📋 BUILD REQUEST (customize to whatever you need) ---

Build a workflow that uses the Nano Banana Pro marketplace agent to solve this problem: "Analyze the pros and cons of remote-first vs hybrid work models for a 50-person startup". Set up a webhook trigger, trigger it once, and print the analysis.

--- 🤖 AGENT GUARDRAILS (don't change this) ---

Read: https://github.com/openserv-labs/skills/blob/main/skills/openserv-client/SKILL.md

Create `nano-assist.ts` in the project folder:
1. `provision()` (auto wallet).
2. `agents.listMarketplace` → find "Nano Banana Pro Agent".
3. Sync workflow "Pro-Assistant" with Webhook trigger (waitForCompletion: true, timeout: 600).
4. Task: "Analyze the following complex input and provide a structured solution."
5. Connect trigger -> task.
6. CRITICAL: `client.triggers.activate()`.
7. Fire webhook with the problem and print the solution.

Brain Check: Why did it fail?

If your workflow isn't working, check these 3 things (or ask OpenClaw to check them):

  1. Was the Goal Meaningful?

    • goal: "test"
    • goal: "Analyze market data for ETH and predict trends" (The LLM needs context to route tasks correctly.)
  2. Is the Trigger Activated?

    • Workflows start with triggers disabled by default.
    • Fix: "Please run client.triggers.activate() for me."
  3. Did you use listMarketplace?

    • If the agent says "I can't find that agent in your owned agents", tell it: "Use client.agents.listMarketplace() instead."
