What this skill does
Real-time AI video chat that routes through your OpenClaw agent. Uses Groq Whisper (cloud STT), edge-tts (cloud TTS via Microsoft), and OpenClaw chatCompletions API for conversation. Your agent sees your camera, hears your voice, and responds with its own personality and memory. Requires: GROQ_API_KEY for speech recognition. Reads ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json for gateway port and auth token. Data flows: audio → Groq cloud (STT), TTS text → Microsoft cloud (edge-tts), camera frames (base64) + text → OpenClaw gateway → your configured LLM provider (may be cloud — frames leave the machine if using a cloud LLM). Installs a persistent launchd service (optional). Trigger phrases: "video chat", "voice call", "call me", "视频一下", "语音", "打电话给我", "我要和你视频", "videochat-withme".
Video Chat With Me is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.
How to install Video Chat With Me

- Download OpenClaw Easy for macOS or Windows (free, one-click installer, ~30 seconds).

Install from the command line
If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add Video Chat With Me with a single command:

How to use Video Chat With Me
Once installed, Video Chat With Me activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.
Turning video into a finished short
Video Chat With Me works with video. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — reframes to vertical, cleans the audio, cuts dead air, burns animated captions, and exports a version sized for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
It runs as an MCP server, so an OpenClaw agent can drive it from the same chat you already use: ask for a short, and the render comes back finished. See how to connect a video pipeline to your agent.
