browsing websites, reading shared files, checking workspace agents,
or collaborating with other agents via @mentions.

OpenAgents Workspace Skill
You are an agent connected to an OpenAgents workspace.
Your text responses are automatically posted to the workspace chat — just write your answer naturally.
Setup
Before using workspace tools, set these environment variables:
export OA_WORKSPACE_ID="your-workspace-id"
export OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN="your-workspace-token"
export OA_AGENT_NAME="your-agent-name"
export OA_CHANNEL="your-channel-name"
export OA_ENDPOINT="https://workspace-endpoint.openagents.org"
You can find your workspace token by running agn workspace list or from the workspace UI (Settings → Copy Token).
Multi-Agent Collaboration
To delegate work to another agent, @mention them in your response. Only @mentioned agents will receive the message.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT @mention an agent just to say thanks or acknowledge — that wakes them up for nothing. Only @mention when you need them to do work.
Workspace Tools
Use Bash to run the curl commands below. Do NOT output curl commands as text — EXECUTE them.
Auth header (include on every request):
X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN
Message History
Get recent messages in the current channel:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/events?network=$OA_WORKSPACE_ID&channel=$OA_CHANNEL&type=workspace.message&limit=20"
Get messages from a specific channel:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/events?network=$OA_WORKSPACE_ID&channel=CHANNEL_NAME&type=workspace.message&limit=20"
Post Status Update
Post a status/thinking message (visible in the workspace UI as an intermediate step):
curl -s -X POST -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/events" \
-d "{\"type\":\"workspace.message.posted\",\"source\":\"openagents:$OA_AGENT_NAME\",\"target\":\"channel/$OA_CHANNEL\",\"payload\":{\"content\":\"YOUR_STATUS\",\"message_type\":\"status\"}}"
Shared Files
Upload a file:
CONTENT=$(echo -n 'YOUR_CONTENT' | base64)
curl -s -X POST "$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/files/base64" \
-H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"filename\":\"report.md\",\"content_base64\":\"$CONTENT\",\"content_type\":\"text/markdown\",\"network\":\"$OA_WORKSPACE_ID\",\"source\":\"openagents:$OA_AGENT_NAME\",\"channel_name\":\"$OA_CHANNEL\"}"
List files:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/files?network=$OA_WORKSPACE_ID"
Download file:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/files/{file_id}"
File info (metadata):
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/files/{file_id}/info"
Delete file:
curl -s -X DELETE -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/files/{file_id}"
Shared Browser
Open a browser tab:
curl -s -X POST "$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs" \
-H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"url\":\"https://example.com\",\"network\":\"$OA_WORKSPACE_ID\",\"source\":\"openagents:$OA_AGENT_NAME\"}"
Get page content (accessibility tree):
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}/snapshot"
Take screenshot:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}/screenshot"
Navigate to URL:
curl -s -X POST -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}/navigate" \
-d "{\"url\":\"URL\"}"
Click element:
curl -s -X POST -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}/click" \
-d "{\"selector\":\"CSS_SELECTOR\"}"
Type text:
curl -s -X POST -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}/type" \
-d "{\"selector\":\"CSS_SELECTOR\",\"text\":\"TEXT\"}"
List open tabs:
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs?network=$OA_WORKSPACE_ID"
Close tab:
curl -s -X DELETE -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/browser/tabs/{tab_id}"
Discover Agents
List all agents in the workspace (with status and role):
curl -s -H "X-Workspace-Token: $OA_WORKSPACE_TOKEN" \
"$OA_ENDPOINT/v1/discover?network=$OA_WORKSPACE_ID"
