Storage#

All data is stored locally in the OpenClaw memory directory:

• Location: memory/prayer-times.json
• Todos: memory/todos.md
• Journal: memory/journal.md
• Reminder settings: memory/reminder.json

API#

This skill uses the free aladhan.com API:

• Endpoint: https://api.aladhan.com
• Method: ISNA (Islamic Society of North America)
• Calculation: Standard school
• No API key required
• Rate limit: 12 requests per second (generous for personal use)

Data Flow#

1. User sends command (e.g., "prayer times jakarta")
2. Script builds API URL with city parameter
3. Calls aladhan.com API
4. Parses JSON response
5. Formats and displays prayer times

Fallback Behavior#

If the API is unavailable or returns an error:

• Script falls back to general estimation times (based on average Indonesia schedule)
• Shows note that this is estimation not actual calculation
• Does not store or cache wrong data

Technical Details#

• Language: Bash script
• Runtime: OpenClaw skill system
• Dependencies: curl, jq (for JSON parsing)
• Permissions: Internet access for API calls
• Storage: File-based (JSON/Markdown)
• Security: No sensitive data stored, read-only API calls

Troubleshooting#

Prayer times not showing#

• Check your internet connection
• Verify the city name is spelled correctly
• Try a different nearby city

Todos not saving#
