GHL CRM Mastery — GoHighLevel API v2 Skill

What This Does

Gives your agent full operational access to GoHighLevel — read, write, and real-time conversation management. Designed for CRM automation agents (appointment setting, lead qualification, pipeline management).

Contact Operations

• contacts list — List contacts with pagination
• contacts get — Full contact record by ID (name, email, phone, company, tags, custom fields)
• contacts search — Find contact by email
• contacts search-phone — Find contact by phone number
• contacts update — Update any contact field (company, tags, custom fields, etc.)
• contacts add-tags — Apply tags to a contact
• contacts remove-tag — Remove a tag from a contact

Conversation Operations (Real-Time)

• conversations list — List recent conversations
• conversations get — Full conversation history for a contact (last 20 messages with direction, type, timestamp)
• conversations send — Send SMS, email, or DM reply through GHL. This is how the agent responds to leads.

Notes

• notes add — Add research notes, call summaries, or interaction logs to a contact record
• notes list — Read existing notes for a contact

Pipeline & Opportunities

• opportunities list — List pipeline items
• opportunities get — Full opportunity details
• opportunities update — Move opportunity to a different pipeline stage

Calendars

• calendars list — List available calendars
• calendars events — List events for a calendar

Tags, Forms, Workflows

• tags list — List all tags in the location
• forms list — List forms
• forms submissions — Get submissions for a specific form
• workflows list — List workflows (read-only)
• workflows trigger — Trigger a workflow for a contact (NEVER create/edit/delete)

System

• health — Test GHL API connection

Real-Time Conversation Pattern

The agent uses this skill for instant lead response. The pattern:

First touch (new lead, no prior research):

1. contacts search-phone or contacts search — find the contact
2. contacts get — pull full record
3. notes list — check for existing research
4. If no research notes → run identity verification (separate skill/process)
5. conversations get — read conversation history
6. Craft personalized response
7. conversations send — reply via GHL
8. notes add — log research findings + what was sent

Follow-up messages (contact already researched):

1. contacts get — pull record (already has research in notes)
2. conversations get — read latest messages
3. Craft contextual reply (15-30 second target)
4. conversations send — reply
5. notes add — brief log of interaction

Key principle: Research happens ONCE per contact. After that, the agent reads its own notes and the conversation history, then replies fast. The goal is real-time chat feel — under 30 seconds for follow-ups.

Prerequisites

Required environment variables (must be set in your .env file):

GHL_API_KEY=your-private-integration-token
GHL_LOCATION_ID=your-location-id

Required runtime: python3 (ships with macOS; verify with python3 --version).

Getting Your GHL Credentials

1. Log into GoHighLevel → Settings → Integrations → Private Integrations → Create New
2. Name it appropriately for your deployment
3. Enable all required scopes:

- contacts.readonly, contacts.write - conversations.readonly, conversations.write - conversations/message.readonly, conversations/message.write - opportunities.readonly, opportunities.write - calendars.readonly, calendars.write - calendars/events.readonly, calendars/events.write - locations/tags.readonly, locations/tags.write - locations/tasks.readonly, locations/tasks.write - forms.readonly, workflows.readonly - payments/transactions.readonly, locations.readonly - invoices.readonly, invoices.write, users.readonly

1. Copy the Private Integration Token → GHL_API_KEY in .env
2. Settings → Business Info → copy Location ID → GHL_LOCATION_ID in .env

Usage

All commands are run via the included Python CLI at {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py:

export GHL_API_KEY=$(grep GHL_API_KEY ~/.openclaw/.env | cut -d= -f2)
export GHL_LOCATION_ID=$(grep GHL_LOCATION_ID ~/.openclaw/.env | cut -d= -f2)

# Test connection
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py health

# Test contact lookup
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py contacts list --limit 1

# Test conversation read
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py conversations get --contact-id "YOUR_CONTACT_ID"

# Send a message
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py conversations send --contact-id "CONTACT_ID" --message "Hello" --type sms

# Add a note
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py notes add --contact-id "CONTACT_ID" --body "Research findings..."

Safety Guardrails (Non-Negotiable)

1. Never create contacts — GHL creates contacts automatically when forms are submitted, SMS received, or DMs received. Creating contacts manually risks duplicates. If a contact doesn't exist, flag to the appropriate channel.
2. Never delete contacts without explicit human confirmation in Slack
3. Never send bulk SMS without human approval
4. Never modify workflows — trigger only, never create/edit/delete
5. Log every write operation — every conversations send and notes add prints a timestamped log line
6. TCPA compliance — no SMS between 9PM and 8AM in the recipient's time zone (enforced by TCPA handler layer, not this skill)

Network Endpoints

This skill connects exclusively to the GoHighLevel API:

• https://services.leadconnectorhq.com — GHL API v2 (all operations)

No other external endpoints are contacted. All credentials are read from local environment variables only.
