On-brand visuals CLI for OpenClaw

Get started in your OpenClaw setup
# Install the Canvora skills (12 skills: carousels, decks, campaigns, localization...)

export CANVORA_API_KEY=vd_...
# Ask OpenClaw in natural language
"Make a 7-slide LinkedIn carousel from https://myblog.com/post, use my brand kit"This is what your agent ships
One generation, localized twice. Same design, natively re-composed in Spanish and Arabic — right-to-left done correctly, not mirrored English.
Generated with the same commands shown on this page.
How it works
1. Discover your account
The agent checks what it has to work with
canvora brands --json # brand kits: colors, fonts, logo
canvora formats --json # all 100+ format ids
canvora credits --json # balance check before big jobs2. Generate
Content in, finished designs out — async by design
ID=$(canvora generate \
--url "https://myblog.com/remote-work-post" \
--format linkedin_carousel --slides linkedin_carousel=7 \
--brand 98992631-... --style modern | head -1)
canvora status "$ID" --json # poll until status: completed3. Localize & deliver
Same design, another market
canvora localize "$ID" --language es
canvora download "$ID" --dir out/ # PNG files, CDN-backedWhat is OpenClaw?
OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI agent framework. It runs long-lived agents that read your messages, execute shell commands, and automate real work — and it learns new capabilities through installable skills. Canvora is the skill that gives it design output.
Skill-native
OpenClaw discovers Canvora through SKILL.md files. Install once and every future session knows how to generate, localize and download visuals.
Shell-capable
OpenClaw runs the Canvora CLI directly. Every command prints machine-readable JSON with --json, so the agent can parse ids, status and file URLs.
Always on
OpenClaw agents run scheduled jobs. Pair a cron message with the Canvora skills and your weekly social visuals produce themselves.
A real OpenClaw session
You write one message; the skill does the rest
> "Turn this week's changelog into an Instagram carousel
and a LinkedIn post. Spanish and English versions."
OpenClaw: Using the canvora skill.
1. canvora brands --json -> found brand kit "Dewstack"
2. canvora generate --input "..." --format instagram_carousel,linkedin_post
3. polling: canvora status a3fbbd90 --json -> completed
4. canvora localize a3fbbd90 --language es -> completed
5. canvora download --dir out/
Delivered: 8 visuals (EN + ES), on-brand, ready to post.Multi-client agency loop
One brand kit per client; the agent iterates
# The agent lists kits, then produces this week's set per client
for BRAND in $(canvora brands --json | jq -r '.[].id'); do
canvora generate --input "$(cat weekly-brief.md)" \
--format instagram_post,linkedin_post \
--brand "$BRAND" --logo

FAQ
How does my OpenClaw agent authenticate? +
One environment variable: CANVORA_API_KEY. Create a key at canvora.ai under Integrations → API Keys. Keys are stored as hashes, revocable in one click, and tracked per key (requests and credits), so an agent key can be rotated without touching your account.
What does a generation cost? +
Flat credit pricing an agent can budget: 10 credits per single visual, 15 per carousel or deck slide. The agent can run canvora credits before big jobs, and the API returns the exact shortfall (required vs available) before anything is charged. Failed generations refund automatically.
Does the agent post to social media too? +
Canvora generates the visuals; it does not publish them. Pair it with your posting tool — the download command returns files and stable CDN URLs your agent can hand to any scheduler.
Which formats can it generate? +
Over 100: Instagram posts/stories/carousels, LinkedIn posts and carousels, pitch decks, infographics, stat cards, blog headers, OG images, ad creatives, email headers and more. canvora formats lists every id.
