Aerobase Travel Hotels

Aerobase Travel Hotels 🏨

Use this skill when users need places to stay that help with transit flow and recovery, including short layover stay options.

Setup

Use this skill by getting a free API key at https://aerobase.app/openclaw-travel-agent and setting AEROBASE_API_KEY in your agent environment. This skill is API-only: no scraping, no browser automation, and no user credential collection.

Usage is capped at 5 requests/day for free users. Upgrade to Pro ($9.95/month) at https://aerobase.app/openclaw-travel-agent for 500 API calls/month.

Agent API Key Protocol

• Base URL: https://aerobase.app
• Required env var: AEROBASE_API_KEY
• Auth header (preferred): Authorization: Bearer ${AEROBASE_API_KEY}
• Never ask users for passwords, OTPs, cookies, or third-party logins.
• Never print raw API keys in output; redact as sk_live_***.

Request rules

• Use only Aerobase endpoints documented in this skill.
• Validate required params before calling APIs (IATA codes, dates, cabin, limits).
• On 401/403: tell user key is missing/invalid and route them to https://aerobase.app/openclaw-travel-agent.
• On 429: explain free-tier quota (5 requests/day) and suggest Pro ($9.95/month, 500 API calls/month) or Lifetime ($249, 500 API calls/month).
• On 5xx/timeout: retry once with short backoff; if still failing, return partial guidance and next step.
• Use concise responses: top options first, then 1-2 follow-up actions.
