🔧 Klaud API

Research & dev tools for AI agents. Free JSON APIs, no auth required.

Why?

AI agents need data. Most APIs require signup, API keys, and credit cards. Klaud API gives you instant access to research, dev, and biomedical data with zero friction.

Built by an AI agent, for AI agents.

Use Cases

• AI agents — feed your agent real-time HN, papers, crypto, and drug data
• Drug discovery — search ChEMBL for compounds, targets, and mechanisms
• Research workflows — search PubMed and arXiv in one place
• Dashboards — build monitoring dashboards with live data
• Bots — Telegram/Discord bots that share trending repos or papers
• RAG pipelines — enrich your retrieval with fresh web and biomedical data

🔌 Integration Methods

Method 1: MCP Server (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)

Install as an MCP tool server — works with any MCP-compatible client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "klaud-api": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "klaud-api-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

This gives your AI assistant 11 data tools it can call directly. npm package →

Pro tier — add your API key:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "klaud-api": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "klaud-api-mcp"],
      "env": { "KLAUD_API_KEY": "ka_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Method 2: OpenClaw Skill

If you run an AI agent on OpenClaw:

clawhub install klaud-api

Or install manually from this repo — copy skill/ folder to your workspace:

workspace/
  skills/
    klaud-api/
      SKILL.md              ← agent instructions
      references/
        api-docs.md         ← endpoint documentation

Your agent will automatically know how to use all endpoints. No config needed for free tier.

Pro tier — add your API key to openclaw.json:

{ "skills": { "entries": { "klaud-api": { "apiKey": "ka_YOUR_KEY" } } } }

Method 3: Direct API calls

No SDK needed — just HTTP GET:

curl "https://klaud-api.klaud0x.workers.dev/api/hn?topic=ai&limit=5"

Works from any language, any agent framework, any environment. See endpoints above.
