Drip OpenClaw Billing

Use this skill when OpenClaw or ClawHub handles a request and you need usage tracking, run timelines, or billable usage attribution in Drip.

Choose an integration path

1. Use X-OpenClaw-Identity with /openclaw/* for lightweight, auto-provisioned metering.
2. Use DRIP_API_KEY with /v1/* for full billing, runs, events, and usage writes.

Safety contract

• Use pk_ keys by default for runtime integrations. Reserve sk_ keys for trusted admin flows.
• Send sanitized operational metadata only.
• Never send raw prompts, raw outputs, request or response bodies, credentials, or PII.
• Prefer hashed identifiers like queryHash over raw user content.
• Emit stable idempotency keys for retries.

SDKs

Node.js

Install: npm install @drip-sdk/node

For the OpenClaw wrapper flow, use OpenClawBilling from @drip-sdk/node/openclaw or OpenClawDripMiddleware from @drip/openclaw/middleware when you are inside the package integration.

import { OpenClawBilling } from '@drip-sdk/node/openclaw';

const billing = new OpenClawBilling({
  apiKey: process.env.DRIP_API_KEY,
  customerId: 'cus_123',
  workflowId: process.env.DRIP_WORKFLOW_ID ?? 'wf_openclaw',
});

Python

Install: pip install drip-sdk

Use the public Python SDK when you need the same run, event, and usage lifecycle from Python.

import os
from drip import Drip

client = Drip(api_key=os.environ["DRIP_API_KEY"])

run = client.start_run(
    customer_id="cus_123",
    workflow_id=os.environ["DRIP_WORKFLOW_ID"],
    external_run_id="openclaw_req_456",
)
