Interact with Tenzro Using the OpenClaw Skill

Getting StartedBeginner10 min

OpenClaw is an open-source framework for creating AI skills that work across multiple AI assistants. The openclaw-tenzro skill gives any OpenClaw-compatible assistant access to the Tenzro blockchain — create wallets, check balances, register identities, and more.

What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw provides a standardized way to extend AI assistants with domain-specific capabilities through "skills". Skills are self-contained packages that define tools, instructions, and workflows — enabling consistent interactions across different AI platforms.

Unlike raw API integrations, OpenClaw skills package tools with contextual guidance, helping AI assistants understand how to use them effectively and chain operations into multi-step workflows.

Install the Skill

The openclaw-tenzro skill lives at skills/openclaw-tenzro/SKILL.md in the Tenzro repository. To activate it, point your OpenClaw-compatible assistant to the skill manifest.

# Direct URL to skill manifest
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tenzro/tenzro-network/main/skills/openclaw-tenzro/SKILL.md

# Or clone the repository locally
git clone https://github.com/tenzro/tenzro-network.git
cd tenzro-network/skills/openclaw-tenzro

The skill connects to the same MCP server at https://mcp.tenzro.network/mcp. No additional configuration needed — just point and use.

Available Tools

The skill provides 10 core tools:

  • get_balance — Query TNZO balance for any address
  • create_wallet — Generate new Ed25519 keypair
  • send_transaction — Submit transfer transactions
  • request_faucet — Request testnet TNZO tokens
  • get_node_status — Check node health and network state
  • get_block — Retrieve block data by height
  • register_identity — Create human or machine DIDs
  • resolve_did — Resolve DIDs to identity information
  • list_models — Browse available AI models
  • verify_zk_proof — Submit ZK proofs for verification

Example Conversations

Here are example conversational exchanges showing how to interact with Tenzro through an OpenClaw-enabled assistant.

1. Create a new wallet

You: Create me a new wallet
Assistant: I'll create a new wallet for you. Your address: 0x742d35Cc... Private key: 0x47e179ec... (Keep this secure!)

2. Check balance

You: Check the balance of 0x742d35Cc...
Assistant: The balance is 0 TNZO. Would you like me to request testnet tokens?

3. Request faucet tokens

You: Yes, request testnet tokens
Assistant: Done! 100 TNZO sent to your wallet. Transaction: 0xc7f3b56d...

4. Register an identity

You: Register a human identity named Bob
Assistant: Identity registered! DID: did:tenzro:human:f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479

5. List available models

You: What AI models are available?
Assistant: 2 models found: llama-3.1-70b (text, 0.0001 TNZO/token), stable-diffusion-xl (image, 0.05 TNZO/inference)

Skill Workflows

The skill supports multi-step workflows. The AI assistant can chain multiple operations together based on a single high-level request.

Example: Complete onboarding workflow

You: I want to get started on Tenzro
Assistant: I'll help you get set up! Let me:
1. Create a wallet
2. Request testnet tokens
3. Register your identity
4. Show you the available models

[Assistant executes all 4 steps automatically]

The assistant understands context and can execute wallet creation, faucet requests, identity registration, and model discovery in sequence — all from one conversational prompt.

Comparison with MCP Direct

The OpenClaw skill uses the same underlying MCP tools as direct MCP connection (see Connect with Claude tutorial). The difference:

Choose OpenClaw for cross-platform compatibility, or MCP Direct for the full toolset with Claude-specific features.
