File contents

Trakt (OpenClaw) — Read-only

Use this skill to query Trakt.tv user data via the API (read-only). Default to read-only; do not implement write operations unless the user explicitly asks for OAuth support.

Requirements

Env vars:
- TRAKT_CLIENT_ID (Trakt API Client ID)
- TRAKT_USERNAME (Trakt username or user slug)
- TRAKT_ACCESS_TOKEN (OAuth Bearer token, required for playback)
- TRAKT_CLIENT_SECRET (required for device token exchange)
Binaries: curl, jq

Commands (script)

Use {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh.

watching — current movie/episode being watched
recent [limit] — recent episode history (default 10, max 100)
watched-shows — recently watched shows list
profile — user profile
stats — user stats
playback <type> <start_at> <end_at> — playback progress (OAuth required)

Examples:

TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=xxx TRAKT_USERNAME=user {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh watching
TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=xxx TRAKT_USERNAME=user {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh recent 5
TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=xxx TRAKT_ACCESS_TOKEN=yyy {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh playback movies 2016-06-01T00:00:00.000Z 2016-07-01T23:59:59.000Z
TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=xxx {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh device-code
TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=xxx TRAKT_CLIENT_SECRET=zzz {baseDir}/scripts/trakt-api.sh device-token <device_code>

Guardrails

Never log or expose API keys or access tokens.
Only call https://api.trakt.tv.
Read-only endpoints only; playback uses OAuth token read access.
Device OAuth flow is read-only; do not request write scopes.
Validate recent limit is numeric and between 1–100.
Handle empty/404 responses gracefully (public profile required).
