## Skills
LettaBot comes with 40+ builtin skills and supports installing more from [ClawdHub](https://clawdhub.com).
LettaBot supports skills that extend the agent's capabilities.
### Builtin Skills
Skills are copied to `{WORKING_DIR}/.skills/` on server startup (where Letta Code discovers them):
| Category | Skills |
|----------|--------|
| **Productivity** | 1password, apple-notes, apple-reminders, bear-notes, notion, obsidian, things-mac, trello |
| **Communication** | bird (Twitter), himalaya (email), imsg (iMessage), wacli (WhatsApp) |
| **Google** | google (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sheets, Docs), goplaces |
| **Media** | camsnap, gifgrep, nano-pdf, openai-image-gen, openai-whisper, summarize, video-frames |
| **Smart Home** | blucli, eightctl, openhue, sonoscli, spotify-player |
| **Dev Tools** | gemini, github, mcporter, oracle, peekaboo, tmux |
| **Utilities** | blogwatcher, cron, weather |

### Install from skills.sh
LettaBot is also compatible with [skills.sh](https://skills.sh) - the open agent skills ecosystem with 29K+ installs.
LettaBot is compatible with [skills.sh](https://skills.sh):
```bash

npm run skills:find

npm run skills:add anthropics/skills # Frontend design, docs, PDFs
npm run skills:add expo/skills # React Native/Expo

# Or use npx directly
npx skills add coreyhaines31/marketingskills --global --yes
# Install skill packs
npm run skills:add supabase/agent-skills
npm run skills:add anthropics/skills
```
Browse all skills: https://skills.sh
### Configuring Skills
Skills installed via ClawdHub or skills.sh are not automatically available to LettaBot. You need to configure which skills to enable:
```bash
lettabot skills
```
This shows an interactive checklist of all available skills (from ClawdHub, skills.sh, and builtin). Select which skills to enable for your agent - checked skills will be available, unchecked skills will be removed.
**Workflow:**
1. Install skills via ClawdHub or skills.sh (see above)
2. Run `lettabot skills` to configure which ones to enable
3. Restart the server (or the agent will pick them up on next interaction)
## Heartbeat & Cron Jobs
## Heartbeat & Scheduling
### Heartbeat
LettaBot can periodically check in with you, reviewing a `HEARTBEAT.md` file for tasks:
LettaBot can periodically check in with you:
```bash
# Enable heartbeat (every 30 minutes)
HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL_MIN=30
# Optional: specify delivery target (defaults to last messaged chat)
HEARTBEAT_TARGET=telegram:123456789
```
How it works:
1. Every N minutes, the system reads `HEARTBEAT.md` and sends its contents to the agent
2. The agent reviews the tasks and decides what to do
3. If nothing to do → agent calls `ignore()` tool → **response not delivered to you** (no spam!)
4. If there's something to report → agent's response is delivered to your chat
### The `ignore()` Tool
The agent has an `ignore()` tool for skipping responses:
```python
ignore(reason="Nothing to report") # Skips delivery
```
This is useful for:
- Heartbeat check-ins with nothing to report
- Messages not directed at the agent
- Any situation where no response is needed
Setup the tool:
```bash
npm run tools:setup # Upserts ignore() tool to Letta API
```
Edit `HEARTBEAT.md` in your working directory to add tasks you want to be reminded about.
### Cron Jobs
The agent can create its own scheduled tasks:
**Silent Mode**: During heartbeats, the agent's text output is NOT automatically sent to you. If the agent wants to contact you, it uses the `lettabot-message` CLI:
```bash
# Enable cron service
CRON_ENABLED=true
lettabot-message send --text "Hey, just checking in!"
```
The agent uses the `lettabot-cron` CLI to manage jobs:
This prevents spam - the agent only messages you when there's something worth saying.
### Scheduling
When `CRON_ENABLED=true`, the agent can create scheduled tasks:
**One-off reminders:**
```bash
# Create a daily morning briefing
lettabot-cron create -n "Morning" -s "0 8 * * *" -m "Good morning! What's on the agenda?"
# List all jobs
lettabot-cron list
# Delete a job
lettabot-cron delete <job-id>
lettabot-schedule create \
--name "Standup" \
--at "2026-01-28T20:15:00Z" \
--message "Time for standup!"
```
Jobs are stored in `cron-jobs.json` and auto-reload when changed. Responses are delivered to the last messaged chat (or specify `--deliver telegram:123456789`).
**Recurring schedules:**
```bash
lettabot-schedule create \
--name "Morning Briefing" \
--schedule "0 8 * * *" \
--message "Good morning! What's on today's agenda?"
```

LettaBot supports pairing-based access control. When `TELEGRAM_DM_POLICY=pairing`:
1. Unauthorized users get a pairing code
2. You approve codes via `lettabot pairing approve telegram <CODE>`
3. Approved users can then chat with the bot

To use a local Letta server instead of Letta Cloud:
```bash
# Point to local server
LETTA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8283 npm run dev
# With a specific agent ID (useful if agent already exists)
LETTA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8283 LETTA_AGENT_ID=agent-xxx npm run dev

```
The `LETTA_AGENT_ID` env var overrides the stored agent ID, useful for testing with different agents or servers.
## Troubleshooting
### WhatsApp
**Session errors / "Bad MAC" messages**
These are normal Signal Protocol renegotiation messages. They're noisy but harmless - WhatsApp will still work.
These are normal Signal Protocol renegotiation messages. They're noisy but harmless.
**Messages going to wrong chat**
If using selfChatMode and messages go to the wrong place, clear the session and re-link:
Clear the session and re-link:
```bash
rm -rf ./data/whatsapp-session
npm run dev # Scan QR again
```
**Competing with another WhatsApp client**
If you have clawdbot/moltbot running, it will compete for WhatsApp. Stop it first:
```bash
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.clawdbot.gateway.plist
lettabot server # Scan QR again
```
### Signal
**Port 8090 already in use**
Change the port in `.env`:
```bash
SIGNAL_HTTP_PORT=8091
```
**Daemon won't start**
Make sure signal-cli is in your PATH or set the full path:
```bash
SIGNAL_CLI_PATH=/opt/homebrew/bin/signal-cli
```
### General
**Agent not responding**
Check if the agent ID is correct in `lettabot-agent.json`. If corrupted, delete it to create a fresh agent:
Delete the agent store to create a fresh agent:
```bash
rm lettabot-agent.json
npm run dev
lettabot server
```
**Messages queuing up / slow responses**
Messages are processed one at a time to prevent SDK issues. If many messages arrive at once, they'll queue.
