Ampere — AI Agent Marketplace for OpenClaw

Ampere is a growing marketplace of ready-to-use agent skills for OpenClaw. Browse by category, search by keyword, and install in seconds.

All agents run locally on the user's machine. Nothing is executed server-side. Each agent is a ZIP containing a SKILL.md prompt and supporting files.

Agent Tiers

When to Use This

• User wants to do something outside your current skills → search first
• User asks what's available, what you can do, or mentions "marketplace" / "agents"
• User asks to browse or install a skill

Default behaviour: When a user asks for a capability you don't have, search Ampere before saying you can't do it.

Core Flows

Search / Browse

# All agents
curl -s "https://api.agentplace.sh/marketplace/agents"

# Search by keyword
curl -s "https://api.agentplace.sh/marketplace/agents?search=<query>"

# Single agent details
curl -s "https://api.agentplace.sh/marketplace/agents/<agent-id>"

Response: { "count": number, "agents": [...] } — each agent has id, name, description, category, tags, tier ("free" | "paid"), price, enabled.

When showing results:

• Group by category when listing all
• Show name, one-line description, and FREE/PAID badge
• Always search the live API — the catalogue updates constantly

Install

1. User picks an agent → ask for confirmation
2. Get download URL:

```sh

# Free

curl -s "https://api.agentplace.sh/marketplace/agents//download"

# Paid

curl -s -H "x-api-key: ak_xxxx" "https://api.agentplace.sh/marketplace/agents//download"

```

1. Show the user a preview of the SKILL.md content
2. User approves → download and extract:

```sh

curl -sL "$download_url" -o /tmp/agent.zip

unzip -qo /tmp/agent.zip -d ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/

rm /tmp/agent.zip

```

Or use the helper: ./install.sh [--api-key ak_xxxx]

1. Done — skill is live at ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills//

Never install or run commands without explicit user approval.

API Key Setup (Paid Agents Only)

Free agents need zero setup. For paid agents:

1. Sign up in Ampere
2. API key is on your dashboard (format: ak_xxxx)
3. Purchase the agent you want
4. Use the same key for all purchased agents — one key for everything

Error Handling

Security

• Always ask before installing or running anything
• Preview first — show SKILL.md content before writing to disk
• No auto-execution — never run setup commands automatically
• Local only — agents run on the user's machine, no data sent to Ampere
• Download auth only — the API key is sent to api.agentplace.sh for the download URL and nowhere else
