Memelord Skill
Generate image and video memes on demand through the Memelord API with a set of ready-to-run helper scripts.
Setup
- API key – export it once per shell (or drop it into
.env).
export MEMELORD_API_KEY="YOUR_KEY"- Executable scripts – the repo ships with
chmod +xalready applied. If you clone from somewhere that strips modes, just run:
chmod +x scripts/*.sh- (Optional) create an
outputs/folder to keep downloaded memes tidy:
mkdir -p /root/.openclaw/workspace/outputsCLI Overview
| Script | Endpoint | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
scripts/ai-meme.sh | POST /api/v1/ai-meme | Generate fresh image memes |
scripts/ai-meme-edit.sh | POST /api/v1/ai-meme/edit | Edit an existing image meme |
scripts/ai-video-meme.sh | POST /api/v1/ai-video-meme | Kick off async video meme renders |
scripts/ai-video-meme-edit.sh | POST /api/v1/ai-video-meme/edit | Re-caption an existing video meme |
scripts/video-render-remote.sh | GET /api/video/render/remote | Poll render job status / URLs |
scripts/verify-webhook.sh | helper | Validate webhook signatures |
All scripts accept --out <path> so you can control where JSON responses land.
1. Generate image memes (1 credit)
./scripts/ai-meme.sh "developer fixing bugs at 3am" --png ./outputs/meme.png
./scripts/ai-meme.sh "when the code works on the first try" --count 3 --png ./outputs/meme_%d.png2. Edit an image meme (1 credit)
./scripts/ai-meme-edit.sh --from ./memelord_ai_meme.json \
--instruction "make it about javascript instead" --png ./outputs/edited.png
# or supply template metadata manually
./scripts/ai-meme-edit.sh --template-id abc-123 --template-data-file ./template_data.json \
--instruction "change the top text" --out ./outputs/edit.json3. Generate video memes (5 credits, async)
./scripts/ai-video-meme.sh "when the code works on the first try" --count 2 --out ./outputs/jobs.json
# with webhook callbacks
./scripts/ai-video-meme.sh "ship it" \
--webhook-url https://example.com/webhook \
--webhook-secret supersecret4. Edit a video meme caption (5 credits, async)
./scripts/ai-video-meme-edit.sh --template-id abc-123 \
--caption "When the code works on the first try" \
--instruction "make it about not knowing why it works" \
--out ./outputs/video_edit_job.json5. Poll video render status
./scripts/video-render-remote.sh --job-id render-1740524400000-abc12 --out ./outputs/status.json6. Verify webhook signatures
./scripts/verify-webhook.sh --secret "$WEBHOOK_SECRET" --body-file ./payload.json --signature "<hex>"Sharing memes in chat surfaces (no links, just media)
When you want Telegram/Signal/WhatsApp/etc. to show only the meme (no caption/link blob), follow this pattern:
- Generate or edit the meme as usual (
ai-video-meme.sh,ai-meme.sh, etc.). - Poll the job if it’s a video (
video-render-remote.sh) until you seemp4Url(orurlfor images) in the JSON. - Download the asset into your workspace. Example for a video:
curl -sSL "<mp4Url-from-status>" -o ./outputs/hiring_engineers.mp4For images, the --png flag already writes the file; otherwise curl the url the same way.
- Send the file itself back to the chat using the OpenClaw media syntax so only the video/image appears:
MEDIA:./outputs/hiring_engineers.mp4*(Swap the extension for .png/.webp for still memes.)*
Because the attachment is the only thing in the reply, Telegram renders it inline without any auto-generated “description + link” chatter.
