lmfiles

Use lmfiles.com as a lightweight file host for OpenClaw/LLM workflows.

Provenance & trust

  • Service docs: https://lmfiles.com/docs
  • OpenAPI schema: https://lmfiles.com/openapi.json
  • API host: https://lmfiles.com
Primary credential:
  • LMFILES_API_KEY (required for authenticated operations)
Bootstrap credential:
  • LMFILES_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN (used only for first-time account registration)
Security notes:
  • Treat credentials as secrets and avoid logging/pasting them.
  • Rotate bootstrap token if exposed.
  • 401 Unauthorized usually means missing/invalid LMFILES_API_KEY.

Before first use (required)

  • Register an account once with a bootstrap token.
  • Save returned api_key as LMFILES_API_KEY.
  • Use LMFILES_API_KEY for all authenticated operations.
Quick setup:

bash
export LMFILES_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN="<bootstrap-token>"

curl -sS -X POST https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/accounts/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"my-bot","bootstrap_token":"'"$LMFILES_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN"'"}'

# Copy api_key from response, then:
export LMFILES_API_KEY="lmf_..."

Common auth error:

  • 401 Unauthorized = missing/invalid LMFILES_API_KEY.

Required env vars

  • LMFILES_API_KEY for authenticated file operations (primary credential).
  • LMFILES_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN only for account registration (bootstrap credential).

Register account (one-time)

bash
curl -sS -X POST https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/accounts/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"my-bot","bootstrap_token":"'"$LMFILES_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN"'"}'

Or use helper script:

bash
bash scripts/register.sh my-bot

Save returned api_key as LMFILES_API_KEY.

Upload file (max 100 MB)

bash
curl -sS -X POST https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/files/upload \
  -H "X-API-Key: $LMFILES_API_KEY" \
  -F "file=@/absolute/path/to/file.ext"

Expected response includes:

  • file_id
  • url (public download link)

Download (public)

bash
curl -L "https://lmfiles.com/f/<file_id>" -o downloaded.file

File metadata (public)

bash
curl -sS "https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/files/<file_id>"

curl -sS https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/accounts/me \
  -H "X-API-Key: $LMFILES_API_KEY"

List account files

bash
curl -sS https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/accounts/me/files \
  -H "X-API-Key: $LMFILES_API_KEY"

Or helper script:

bash scripts/list.sh

Delete file (owner only)

bash
curl -sS -X DELETE https://lmfiles.com/api/v1/files/<file_id> \
  -H "X-API-Key: $LMFILES_API_KEY"

Or helper script:

bash scripts/delete.sh <file_id>

Constraints

  • Max upload size: 100 MB.
  • Executable file types are rejected (for example .php, .sh, .py, .exe).
  • Files expire after 90 days of inactivity; downloads reset the expiry clock.
  • Downloads are public for anyone with the URL.

Safety checks before upload

  • Confirm file is safe to publish publicly.
  • Avoid uploading secrets or credentials.
  • If uncertain, ask user before upload.
