Setup & Installation
openclaw skills install @rahulgi/image-hosting
Or with the ClawHub CLI, for registry-managed skill folders outside a full OpenClaw workspace:
npx clawhub install image-hosting
What This Skill Does
Uploads an image file to img402.dev and returns a public CDN URL. The free tier supports files up to 1MB with 7-day retention and requires no account or API key. A paid tier extends retention to one year with a 5MB limit, using x402 micropayment.
No account, API key, or configuration is needed for the free tier, so an agent can host an image immediately without any setup step.
When to use it
- Sharing a screenshot in a Slack or chat message
- Embedding a generated chart image in a document
- Getting a public URL for an image payload in an API request
- Posting an agent-generated image to a social platform
- Attaching a visual to a bug report or support ticket
