Set via:
MANUS_API_KEY environment variableskills.manus.apiKey in OpenClaw configIMPORTANT: The
manus-1.5,manus-1.5-lite, andmanus-1.5-maxprofiles are DEPRECATED and will stop working. Always use the 1.6 profiles below.
| Profile | Speed | Depth | Best for | Relative cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
manus-1.6 | Standard | Full | Most tasks, file creation, reports | Standard (recommended default) |
manus-1.6-lite | Fast | Light | Quick lookups, simple questions, summaries | ~40% cheaper |
manus-1.6-max | Slow | Deep | Complex multi-step research, thorough analysis (+19.2% satisfaction vs standard) | ~2x standard |
Default: Always use manus-1.6 unless the user explicitly asks for lite or max.
Wide Research: All Wide Research sub-agents automatically use manus-1.6-max for maximum depth.
Before creating a task, inform the user of the expected profile:
manus-1.6-litemanus-1.6manus-1.6-maxUsers can override with "use lite", "use max", or "use the cheap one" / "use the thorough one".
Manus 1.6 adds these capabilities over 1.5:
| Mode | Description | When to use |
|---|---|---|
agent | Full autonomous agent with tool use | File creation, web browsing, code writing (recommended default) |
chat | Conversational back-and-forth | Simple Q&A, brainstorming |
adaptive | Auto-selects best approach | When unsure which mode fits |
Default: Always use agent mode for tasks that produce deliverables.
Use these templates to create well-structured tasks. Always include createShareableLink: true.
For market research, competitive analysis, topic deep-dives.

Full parameter reference:
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
prompt | string | (required) | The task description |
agentProfile | string | manus-1.6 | Agent profile: manus-1.6, manus-1.6-lite, manus-1.6-max |
taskMode | string | agent | Task mode: agent, chat, adaptive |
createShareableLink | boolean | false | Generate a public share URL |
interactiveMode | boolean | false | Allow Manus to ask follow-up questions (task pauses with stop_reason: ask) |
projectId | string | - | Associate with a project's persistent instructions |
taskId | string | - | Continue an existing conversation (multi-turn) |
locale | string | - | Language locale (e.g., "zh-CN", "ja", "es") |
attachments | array | - | Files to attach (see Attachment types below) |
Attachment types:
// From an uploaded file ID (see Files API)
{ "type": "fromFileId", "fileId": "file_abc123" }
// From a URL (Manus downloads it)
{ "type": "fromUrl", "url": "https://example.com/data.csv" }
// Inline base64 content
{ "type": "fromBase64", "data": "base64-encoded-content", "fileName": "image.png", "mimeType": "image/png" }
Response:
{
"task_id": "abc123",
"task_title": "Task Title",
"task_url": "https://manus.im/app/abc123",
"status": "pending"
}
After creating a task, immediately tell the user:
To continue a previous task as a conversation, pass the original taskId:
curl -s -X POST "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"prompt": "Now add a section about pricing trends",
"agentProfile": "manus-1.6",
"taskMode": "agent",
"taskId": "PREVIOUS_TASK_ID",
"createShareableLink": true
}'
This preserves all context from the previous task. Use this when:
interactiveMode and Manus asked a question (stop_reason: ask)curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks/{task_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Status values:
| Status | Meaning | Action |
|---|---|---|
pending | Queued, not yet started | Wait and poll again in 15-30 seconds |
running | Actively working | Wait and poll again in 15-30 seconds |
completed | Finished successfully | Retrieve and deliver results |
failed | Task errored out | Report error, suggest retry |
curl -s -X PUT "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks/{task_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"title": "New title for this task"
}'
curl -s -X DELETE "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks/{task_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks?status=completed&page=1&limit=20" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Query parameters:
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
status | string | - | Filter by status: pending, running, completed, failed |
page | integer | 1 | Page number |
limit | integer | 20 | Results per page |
When showing task history to the user, format it as a table:
| Task ID | Title | Status | Profile | Created |
|---------|-------|--------|---------|---------|
| abc123 | Market Research | completed | manus-1.6 | 2 hours ago |
| def456 | Code Review | running | manus-1.6-lite | 5 min ago |
After creating a task, poll for completion. Use the helper script or curl directly.
With the helper script:
bash scripts/manus.sh wait <task_id> 600
With curl (manual polling):
# Poll every 15 seconds until completed or failed
task_id="YOUR_TASK_ID"
status="pending"
while [ "$status" != "completed" ] && [ "$status" != "failed" ]; do
sleep 15
status=$(curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks/$task_id" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" | jq -r '.status // "unknown"')
done
When polling, give the user periodic updates:
When a task completes, the response contains output content and files:
curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/tasks/{task_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Response structure:
{
"task_id": "abc123",
"status": "completed",
"task_title": "Research Report",
"output": [
{
"content": [
{
"type": "text",
"text": "Here is the research summary..."
},
{
"type": "output_file",
"fileUrl": "https://private-us-east-1.manuscdn.com/...",
"fileName": "research_report.pdf"
}
]
}
]
}
Always do these steps when a task completes:
# List files from a completed task
bash scripts/manus.sh files <task_id>
# Download all output files to a directory
bash scripts/manus.sh download <task_id> ./manus-output
Manual download:
curl -sL "https://private-us-east-1.manuscdn.com/path/to/file" -o "output_filename.pdf"
Manage file uploads for use as task attachments.
curl -s -X POST "https://api.manus.im/v1/files" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"fileName": "data.csv",
"mimeType": "text/csv"
}'
Response:
{
"file_id": "file_abc123",
"upload_url": "https://s3.amazonaws.com/manus-uploads/...",
"expires_at": "2026-03-16T00:00:00Z"
}
Then upload the file content to the presigned S3 URL:
curl -s -X PUT "$UPLOAD_URL" \
-H "Content-Type: text/csv" \
--data-binary @data.csv
After uploading, use fromFileId attachment type when creating a task:
{ "attachments": [{ "type": "fromFileId", "fileId": "file_abc123" }] }
curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/files" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Returns the 10 most recent files.
curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/files/{file_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
curl -s -X DELETE "https://api.manus.im/v1/files/{file_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Projects let you set persistent instructions that apply to all tasks in a project. Useful for brand guidelines, output format preferences, or domain context.
curl -s -X POST "https://api.manus.im/v1/projects" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"name": "Q1 Market Research",
"instructions": "Always format output as markdown tables. Use formal tone. Include source URLs for all claims. Target audience: C-suite executives."
}'
Response:
{
"project_id": "proj_abc123",
"name": "Q1 Market Research"
}
Then pass projectId when creating tasks:
{ "prompt": "Research competitor pricing", "projectId": "proj_abc123" }
curl -s "https://api.manus.im/v1/projects" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
Instead of polling, you can register a webhook URL to receive real-time task updates.
curl -s -X POST "https://api.manus.im/v1/webhooks" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"url": "https://your-server.com/manus-webhook",
"events": ["task_created", "task_progress", "task_stopped"]
}'
curl -s -X DELETE "https://api.manus.im/v1/webhooks/{webhook_id}" \
-H "API_KEY: $MANUS_API_KEY"
