Onboard with BestYou

Complete the onboarding wizard on your iPhone. Connect Apple Health, let BestYou import your health history, and set your goals. This gives the 19 agents the context they need to build your first Action Plan.

03

Generate an OpenClaw API Key

In the BestYou app, you can create a secure link for OpenClaw to use. Go to More, Connected Apps, OpenClaw and generate a new API key. The plaintext key is shown exactly once so copy it and store it securely.

Set your environment variable:

export BESTYOU_API_KEY="by_mcp_live_..."

Add this to your shell profile (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc) so it persists across sessions.

04

Install the BestYou Skill & Configure MCP

Install the BestYou connector skill, then configure mcporter to bridge your agent to BestYou’s health intelligence via MCP.

Part A — Install the connector skill

clawhub install bestyou
Manual install
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills
mkdir bestyou && cd bestyou
unzip /path/to/bestyou.skill

Part B — Configure MCP

Install mcporter (if not already installed):

npm install -g mcporter

Add BestYou as an MCP server:

mcporter config add bestyou \
  --url https://mcp.bestyou.ai/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $BESTYOU_API_KEY"

Verify the connection:

mcporter call bestyou.get_account_link_status
05

Test Your Connection

Ask your OpenClaw agent:

“What's my day look like?”

If connected correctly, your agent will pull your daily brief, readiness score, and action plan from BestYou.

Having trouble? Check these common issues:

  • “Account not linked”Open BestYou app → More → Connected Apps → verify OpenClaw is connected
  • “Subscription inactive”Make sure your BestYou Pro subscription is active
  • “Invalid API key”Generate a new key in the app and update your BESTYOU_API_KEY environment variable
  • “mcporter: command not found”Run npm install -g mcporter to install the MCP client
  • “MCP server unreachable”Check your network connection and verify the API key is set correctly

You can also test individual tools in the OpenClaw Playground.

06

Add Visual Dashboards (Optional)

Your agent already works with text responses. This step adds Dark Glass themed visual widgets for a richer experience.

Install the visual dashboards skill

clawhub install bestyou-coach
Manual install
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills
mkdir bestyou-coach && cd bestyou-coach
unzip /path/to/bestyou-coach.skill

No additional configuration needed. The coach skill uses the same MCP connection you set up in Step 04.
