Int Fathom

Fathom

Retrieve meeting recordings, transcripts, summaries, and action items from Fathom.

Setup

The skill needs a Fathom API key configured in openclaw.json under skills.entries.fathom:

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "fathom": {
        "apiKey": "your-fathom-api-key",
        "env": {
          "FATHOM_API_KEY": "your-fathom-api-key"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

The API key is available at https://fathom.video/settings/api (requires Fathom Team or Enterprise plan).

Presenting Results

When presenting meeting data to the user, follow these guidelines:

• Summaries: Show the markdown-formatted summary directly. It's already well-structured.
• Action items: Present as a checklist with assignee, description, and link to the recording timestamp.
• Transcripts: Don't dump the full transcript unless asked. Instead, summarize key points or search for specific topics the user asked about.
• Meeting list: Show title, date, participants, and recording link. Keep it scannable.
• Links: Always include the Fathom recording URL so the user can watch the replay.

Response Format

The API returns JSON. Key fields per meeting:

• title / meeting_title — meeting name
• recording_id — unique ID (used to fetch summary/transcript)
• url — direct link to recording in Fathom
• share_url — shareable link
• created_at, scheduled_start_time, recording_start_time — timestamps
• calendar_invitees — list of participants with name, email, and whether external
• recorded_by — who recorded the meeting
• default_summary.markdown_formatted — the AI-generated summary (when include_summary=true)
• action_items — list with description, assignee, completion status, and recording timestamp link
• transcript — array of {speaker, text, timestamp} entries

Pagination

The meetings endpoint uses cursor-based pagination. The script handles this automatically when you pass --all to fetch every page. Without --all, it returns the first page only (default limit from API).

Notes

• Base URL: https://api.fathom.ai/external/v1
• Auth: X-Api-Key header
• Rate limited (429 responses) — the script retries with backoff
• Transcript inclusion in list endpoint may be restricted for OAuth apps; use the dedicated /recordings/{id}/transcript endpoint instead
• Dates should be ISO 8601 format (e.g. 2026-03-11T00:00:00Z or just 2026-03-11)
