Skill Invocation Flow
Step 1: Collect Required Information
Before execution, MUST ask the user the following questions to ensure generation quality:
1.1 Required Fields (all task types)
Please provide the following information:
[Required]
1. API Key: Your AnyGen API Key (format: sk-xxx)
- If you don't have one, visit https://www.anygen.io/home to register and obtain one
- Path: Log in → Setting → Integration → Generate API Key
2. Generation type: slide (PPT) / doc (document) / chat (conversation) / data_analysis / website / storybook (whiteboard)
3. Content description: Describe what you want to generate
1.2 Slide (PPT) Specific Questions
When the user chooses to create a slide/PPT, MUST additionally ask:
To generate a PPT that matches your expectations, please select or describe the following:
[Style] Choose from the following styles, or describe your preferred style:
Business Formal (business) — Annual reviews, client proposals, business plans
Minimalist Modern (minimalist) — Product launches, project summaries, internal sharing
Tech Style (tech) — Technical proposals, architecture design, R&D reports
Academic (academic) — Thesis defense, academic reports, research presentations
Creative (creative) — Marketing campaigns, brand promotions, team events
Data-Driven (data-driven) — Data reports, analytics summaries, operations reviews
Nature Fresh (nature) — Education, training, public interest, cultural sharing
Dark Mode (dark) — Product demos, tech conferences, launch events
[Page Count] How many pages? (Default: AI decides based on content, typically 8-15)
- Suggestion: Brief report 5-8 / Standard presentation 10-15 / Detailed proposal 15-25
[Aspect Ratio] 16:9 (default, for projection) or 4:3 (for printing)
1.3 Optional Parameters
[Recommended — significantly improves quality]
- Reference files: Do you have reference materials? e.g.:
- Existing PPT/documents for style reference
- Related PDFs, images, text materials
- Company logo or brand assets
(Supported formats: PDF, PNG, JPG, DOCX, PPTX, TXT)
[Other optional]
- Language: zh-CN (default) or en-US
- PPT template: business, education, etc.
- Document format: docx (default) or pdf
Tip: Style description and reference files are not mandatory, but providing them helps AnyGen generate content that better matches your expectations.
Step 2: Create Task
python3 ~/.openclaw/skills/anygen/task-manager/scripts/anygen.py create \
--api-key "sk-xxx" \
--operation slide \
--prompt "A presentation about the history of artificial intelligence" \
--language zh-CN \
--slide-count 10 \
--ratio "16:9" \
--style "tech-style, minimalist modern" \
--file ./reference.pdf
Create Task Parameters
| Parameter | Short | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| --api-key | -k | API Key | Yes |
| --operation | -o | slide or doc | Yes |
| --prompt | -p | Content description | Yes |
| --language | -l | Language (zh-CN/en-US) | No |
| --slide-count | -c | Number of PPT pages | No |
| --template | -t | PPT template | No |
| --ratio | -r | PPT ratio (16:9/4:3) | No |
| --doc-format | -f | Document format (docx/pdf) | No |
| --file | Attachment file path (can be used multiple times) | No | |
| --style | -s | Style preference (e.g., 'business formal', 'minimalist modern') | No |
Step 3: Poll Task Status
After successful creation, a task_id will be returned. Use the following command to poll:
python3 ~/.openclaw/skills/anygen/task-manager/scripts/anygen.py poll \
--api-key "sk-xxx" \
--task-id "task_abc123xyz" \
--output ./output/
The script will automatically poll until the task completes or fails, querying every 3 seconds. When completed, the file is automatically downloaded.
Step 4: Download File (Automatic)
When using poll or run command with --output, the file will be automatically downloaded after task completion. Do NOT give the user the raw file_url — the script handles the download and returns the local file path.
If you need to manually download:
python3 ~/.openclaw/skills/anygen/task-manager/scripts/anygen.py download \
--api-key "sk-xxx" \
--task-id "task_abc123xyz" \
--output ./output/
One-Click Execution (Create + Poll + Auto Download)
# If API Key is already configured, --api-key parameter can be omitted
python3 ~/.openclaw/skills/anygen/task-manager/scripts/anygen.py run \
--operation slide \
--prompt "A presentation about the history of artificial intelligence" \
--style "business formal" \
--file ./company_logo.png \
--output ./output/
The run command will automatically:
- Create the task
- Poll and wait for completion
- Automatically download the generated file locally
Output Behavior
IMPORTANT: When the task completes, return to the user:
file: Local file path of the downloaded file (auto-downloaded from file_url)task_url: The AnyGen task URL for online viewing/editing
Do NOT return file_url to the user. The script auto-downloads the file and provides the local path instead.
