# Send to OpenClaw

Chrome extension + webhook server that sends readable page content to Clawdbot.

## What It Does

- Regular pages: extracts main readable text or highlighted selection
- Google Docs: fetches clean plain text via export API (uses browser cookies, no OAuth needed)
- X/Twitter: extracts tweet threads and articles, strips sidebar and UI chrome
- Optional message field for instructions or context
- Delivers to Clawdbot via `clawdbot system event`

## Repository

https://github.com/Nateliason/send-to-openclaw

## Setup

### 1. Clone and start the webhook server

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Nateliason/send-to-openclaw.git
cd send-to-openclaw/server
npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm start
```

Server listens on `http://localhost:3847/send-to-openclaw`.

Environment variables (in `server/.env`):
- `PORT` — default `3847`
- `WEBHOOK_TOKEN` — optional bearer token
- `CLAWDBOT_WAKE_MODE` — `now` (default) or `next-heartbeat`

### 2. Load the Chrome extension

1. Open `chrome://extensions`
2. Enable Developer mode
3. Click Load unpacked, select the `extension/` folder
4. Open Options, set Webhook URL to `http://localhost:3847/send-to-openclaw`
5. Set Auth token if `WEBHOOK_TOKEN` is configured

### 3. Run as a service (optional)

macOS:
```bash
cp server/com.sendtoopenclaw.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.sendtoopenclaw.plist
```

Linux:
```bash
sudo cp server/send-to-openclaw.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now send-to-openclaw
```

## Usage

- Click toolbar icon, optionally add a message, hit Send
- Right-click any page or selection: "Send to OpenClaw"
- Keyboard shortcut: `Alt+Shift+S`

## What Clawdbot Receives

```
Page sent from browser: Document Title
URL: https://example.com/page
Time: 2026-01-30T21:00:05.560Z

Your optional message here

The page content or Google Doc text...
```

## Troubleshooting

- "Failed to read page" on Google Docs: ensure the extension has host permission for `docs.google.com` (Chrome prompts on first load)
- "Failed to send": verify the webhook server is running (`curl http://localhost:3847/health`)
- Extension not extracting tweets cleanly: reload the extension after updates (`chrome://extensions` refresh button)
