Phoenix API Generator

What this skill does

Generate a full Phoenix JSON API from an OpenAPI spec or natural language description. Creates contexts, Ecto schemas, migrations, controllers, JSON views/renderers, router entries, ExUnit tests with factories, auth plugs, and tenant scoping. Use when building a new Phoenix REST API, adding CRUD endpoints, scaffolding resources, or converting an OpenAPI YAML into a Phoenix project.

Phoenix API Generator is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install Phoenix API Generator

The easiest path is via the OpenClaw Easy desktop app — one click, no terminal required:

2. Open the in-app Skills panel.
3. Search for phoenix-api-gen and click Install.
4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add Phoenix API Generator with a single command:

This pulls phoenix-api-gen from ClawHub and installs it into ~/.openclaw/skills/phoenix-api-gen/. Restart the OpenClaw gateway afterwards so the new skill is discovered.

How to use Phoenix API Generator

Once installed, Phoenix API Generator activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab phoenix-api-gen-1.0.0.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/phoenix-api-gen/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
