Oura Ring Analytics - this one's for the biohackers. Install it and your OpenClaw agent becomes a personal health analyst: sleep scores, HRV trends, readiness data, all pulled from the Oura Cloud API and summarized on demand. The killer feature is correlation - ask your agent whether your late nights are tanking your productivity and it can actually tell you. You'll need an OURA_API_TOKEN from cloud.ouraring.com. Built by kesslerio.

Install: npx clawhub install oura-analytics

He just got his nights back.

One weekend of building did more job hunting than most people manage in three months. Reddit
