Connect to Fathom AI to fetch call recordings, transcripts, and summaries.

  • Works in 3 steps: Get Your API Key → Configure → Test Connection
  • User asks about their meetings
  • SKILL.md covers Setup, Commands, API Reference and Filters for list-calls, plus 4 more sections
  • Runs Shell scripts from its folder; calls jq; reaches api.fathom.ai; needs FATHOM_API_KEY

What it does

Fathom is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Connect to Fathom AI to fetch call recordings, transcripts, and summaries. Use when user asks about their meetings, call history, or wants to search past conversations.

Its SKILL.md is about 940 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts (for example `examples/config-snippet.json`, `scripts/get-summary.sh` and `scripts/get-transcript.sh`).

It sits in Backend & APIs. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • User asks about their meetings
  • Wants to search past conversations

Example prompts

  • “/fathom”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell
  • A credential in YOUR_API_KEY
  • A credential in FATHOM_API_KEY

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Get Your API Key
  2. Configure
  3. Test Connection

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 6 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • jq

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.fathom.ai

    Also links to:

    • fathom.video
    • developers.fathom.ai

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • FATHOM_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Fathom loads about 937 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 204 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~937

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
