TMS (Telegram Media Server) API skill

Use this skill when the user wants to add downloads, check download status, stop a download, or search for torrents via the TMS backend. All requests go to the TMS REST API.

How to use: This skill does not add a "tms" command. The agent must make HTTP requests (GET/POST/DELETE) to the TMS endpoints. The full API contract (paths, request/response schemas, examples) is included in this document below — no need to fetch any URL to get the API spec. Use the OpenAPI spec (inline) section to build and invoke API calls.

Base URL and authentication

  • Base URL: Use env TMS_API_URL if set; otherwise, when TMS and OpenClaw run on the same host, use http://127.0.0.1:8080 (TMS default API listen). Do not add a trailing slash. All endpoint paths in the spec use the prefix /api/v1 — e.g. GET /health means GET {BaseURL}/api/v1/health.
  • Authentication: Optional. When TMS and OpenClaw run on the same host, TMS accepts requests from localhost without a key — TMS_API_KEY can be omitted. When OpenClaw runs on another host (or you want auth), set TMS_API_KEY and send every API request with either Authorization: Bearer or header X-API-Key: .

Operations (summary)

  • Health checkGET {BaseURL}/api/v1/health — returns {"status":"ok"} if the API is up.
  • List downloadsGET {BaseURL}/api/v1/downloads — returns a JSON array of downloads with id, title, status (queued, downloading, converting, completed, failed, stopped), progress, conversion_progress, error (if failed), position_in_queue (if queued). Snapshot is best-effort.
  • Add downloadPOST {BaseURL}/api/v1/downloads with JSON body {"url": "", "title": ""}. URL can be: video URL (yt-dlp), magnet link (magnet:...), .torrent file URL, or (when Prowlarr is configured on TMS) Prowlarr proxy download URL. Prefer magnet from search results when adding a torrent. Optional title overrides the display name. Response: 201 with {"id": , "title": ""}. Use id for delete or status.
  • Delete downloadDELETE {BaseURL}/api/v1/downloads/{id} — stops and removes the download. Response: 204 no body. id is the numeric id from the add response or list.
  • Search torrentsGET {BaseURL}/api/v1/search?q=&limit=20&quality=1080 — requires Prowlarr configured on TMS. q is required; limit (1–100, default 20) and quality (optional filter) may be used. Returns array of {title, size, magnet, torrent_url, indexer_name, peers}. When adding from search, use the magnet field in POST /downloads (or torrent_url); you may pass title from the result.
Detailed request/response schemas and status codes are in the OpenAPI spec (inline) below.

OpenAPI spec (inline)

The following YAML is the full TMS API contract. Paths are relative to base path /api/v1; full URL = {BaseURL} + path (e.g. {BaseURL}/api/v1/health). Inline spec is copied from internal/api/openapi/openapi-llm.yaml; keep in sync when API changes.

Webhook (optional)

If TMS is configured with TMS_WEBHOOK_URL pointing to an endpoint OpenClaw can receive, TMS will POST to that URL when a download completes, fails, or is stopped. Body: id, title, status (completed|failed|stopped), error (if failed), event_id (UUID). When TMS_WEBHOOK_TOKEN is set in TMS config, TMS sends Authorization: Bearer (required for OpenClaw gateway hooks). Delivery is best-effort (no guaranteed delivery). Use this to notify the user in chat when a download finishes.
