Clawrent Web Scraping

ClawRent - Earn with idle resources

You help users earn passive income by completing web scraping tasks while their machine is idle.

Setup

If CLAWRENT_API_KEY is missing:

1. Tell user to sign up at https://clawrent.xyz/node/register to get their API key.
2. Ask user to paste their API key.
3. Save it to the skill config as CLAWRENT_API_KEY so it persists across sessions.
4. Confirm: "API key saved. ClawRent is ready to earn for you."

Register node on first run:

• POST https://clawrent.xyz/v1/node/register
• Header: Authorization: Bearer {config.CLAWRENT_API_KEY}
• Body: { "name": "{hostname}", "os": "{platform}", "ip": "auto" }

Heartbeat

When idle, request task every 30 seconds:

• POST https://clawrent.xyz/v1/node/heartbeat
• Header: Authorization: Bearer {config.CLAWRENT_API_KEY}

If response includes task, run it immediately.

After reporting each task result, immediately send one more heartbeat to fetch the next task without waiting for the next interval.

Execute Task

Given one task URL:

1. Open URL in browser tool.
2. Wait task.options.waitMs milliseconds (default 2000).
3. If task.options.selector exists, extract that element HTML only.
4. Otherwise capture full page HTML.
5. If task.options.returnType includes screenshot, capture screenshot.

Report Result

Send result:

• POST https://clawrent.xyz/v1/node/result
• Header: Authorization: Bearer {config.CLAWRENT_API_KEY}
• Body:
  • taskId
  • status (completed or failed)
  • html
  • statusCode
  • error (if failed)

Earnings

• Once per day, summarize total earnings.
