# Data Handling
This skill communicates exclusively with the official EVE Online ESI API (`esi.evetech.net`) and EVE SSO (`login.eveonline.com`).
No character data is exfiltrated to third-party servers.
Optional integrations (Telegram, Discord) are user-configured via environment variables and only transmit alerts defined by the user.
# EVE Online ESI
The ESI (EVE Swagger Interface) is the official REST API for EVE Online third-party development.
Skill Location
All scripts live at: `~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/`
Always use full paths when calling scripts:
SKILL=~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi
Authentication
Tokens are stored in `~/.openclaw/eve-tokens.json` (created by auth_flow.py, chmod 600).
All scripts (`get_token.py`, `esi_query.py`) read from this file directly — **no env vars are required for normal operation.**
**First-time setup** (once per character):
# 1. Set up SSH tunnel on your local PC:
# ssh -L 8080:127.0.0.1:8080 user@your-server -N
# 2. Run auth flow on server (pass Client ID directly):
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/auth_flow.py --client-id <YOUR_CLIENT_ID> --char-name main
# 3. Open the shown URL in browser, log in with EVE account
**Get a fresh access token** (tokens expire after ~20min, refresh is automatic):
TOKEN=$(python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/get_token.py --char main)
**List authenticated characters:**
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi/scripts/get_token.py --list
For full OAuth2/PKCE details: see `references/authentication.md`.

Dashboard Config
The skill supports a modular dashboard config for alerts, reports, and market tracking. Each user defines what they need in a JSON config file.
Features
| Module | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **Alerts** | Real-time polling for war decs, structure attacks, skill completions, wallet changes, industry jobs, PI extractors, killmails, contracts, clone jumps, mail |
| **Reports** | Cron-scheduled summaries: net worth, skill queue, industry, market orders, wallet, assets |
| **Market** | Price tracking with absolute thresholds and trend detection |
Security
Tokens should **not** be stored in plain text. Use environment variable references:
{
"token": "$ENV:EVE_TOKEN_MAIN",
"refresh_token": "$ENV:EVE_REFRESH_MAIN"
}
The config file should live outside the workspace (e.g. `~/.openclaw/eve-dashboard-config.json`).
Validate a config

Using the query script
SKILL=~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/eve-esi
TOKEN=$(python3 $SKILL/scripts/get_token.py --char main)
CHAR_ID=$(python3 $SKILL/scripts/get_token.py --char main --json | python3 -c "import sys,json; print(json.load(sys.stdin))" 2>/dev/null)
# Simple query
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/wallet/" --pretty
# Fetch all pages of assets
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/assets/" --pages --pretty
# POST request (e.g. asset names)
python3 $SKILL/scripts/esi_query.py --token "$TOKEN" --endpoint "/characters/$CHAR_ID/assets/names/" \
--method POST --body '[1234567890]' --pretty
Best practices
Resolving type IDs
ESI returns numeric type IDs (e.g. for ships, items, skills). Resolve names via:
# Single type
curl -s "https://esi.evetech.net/latest/universe/types/587/"
# Bulk names (up to 1000 IDs)
curl -s -X POST "https://esi.evetech.net/latest/universe/names/" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '[587, 638, 11393]'
