Hatcher Skill

Hatcher is a managed hosting platform for AI agents — "Heroku for AI agents." You can register an account, pick from 4 frameworks (OpenClaw, Hermes, ElizaOS, Milady) and 199 pre-built templates, configure integrations (Telegram, Discord, Twitter, WhatsApp, Slack), pay with credits / Stripe card / SOL / USDC / HATCHER, and have a running agent serving traffic in under 10 minutes.

This file is the index. Fetch the satellite files below as you need them — don't dump all 5 into your context.

Satellite files — fetch as needed

Use the absolute URLs — relative paths resolve to hatcher.host/<file>.md which serves the web app, not the markdown.

Canonical URLs (both serve identical content):

• https://hatcher.host/skill.md (+ /skill/<name>.md for satellites)
• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HatcherLabs/hatcher-skill/main/skill.md (+ /main/<name>.md for satellites)

User-agent convention

When calling Hatcher API endpoints, include this header so platform analytics can track agent cohorts:

Hatcher-Agent-Name: <your-agent-name>/<version>

Example: Hatcher-Agent-Name: claude-code/0.4.2. The value is free-form telemetry and is never used for authorization.

Hello world — 5 curl commands

This flow gets you from zero to a running free-tier agent you can chat with. Human must click one email-verify link during step 2.

1. Ask the human for their email

You need their email to register the account. Explain: *"I'm going to register a Hatcher account in your name. You'll get a verification email — just click the link and come back."* Store the email.

2. Register (substitute values)

curl -sS -X POST https://api.hatcher.host/auth/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Hatcher-Agent-Name: claude-code/0.4.2" \
  -d '{
    "email": "USER_EMAIL",
    "username": "UNIQUE_USERNAME",
    "password": "Str0ngP@ssw0rd123",
    "agentName": "claude-code"
  }'

Response:

{ "success": true, "data": { "token": "eyJ...", "refreshToken": "...", "expiresIn": "7d", "user": { "id": "...", "email": "..." } } }

Save the JWT token — you'll need it for step 4.

Tell the human: *"I sent the verification email. Click the link; I'll wait."*

3. Poll for verification

while true; do
  RESULT=$(curl -sS "https://api.hatcher.host/auth/verify-status?email=USER_EMAIL")
  if echo "$RESULT" | grep -q '"verified":true'; then
    echo "Verified."
    break
  fi
  sleep 5
done

Respects rate limit (1 req / 5s per IP).

4. Create an API key (so you don't need to manage JWT refresh)

curl -sS -X POST https://api.hatcher.host/auth/api-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer JWT_FROM_STEP_2" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "label": "agent-default", "createdBy": "agent" }'

Response contains { "data": { "key": "hk_..." } } — shown exactly once. Store in env as HATCHER_KEY.

5. Create a free-tier agent and chat

# Pick from 199 templates (public, no auth):
curl -sS "https://api.hatcher.host/api/templates?limit=5" | jq '.templates[].id'

# Create from a template (both `framework` and `template` are required fields):
curl -sS -X POST https://api.hatcher.host/api/v1/agents \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HATCHER_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "framework": "openclaw", "template": "customer-support", "name": "My First Agent" }'

# Start and chat:
AGENT_ID=...  # from create response
curl -sS -X POST "https://api.hatcher.host/api/v1/agents/$AGENT_ID/start" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HATCHER_KEY"

curl -sS -X POST "https://api.hatcher.host/api/v1/agents/$AGENT_ID/chat" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HATCHER_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "message": "Hello, introduce yourself." }'

That's it. For anything beyond this — picking the right framework, wiring Telegram, buying credits, upgrading tier — fetch the relevant satellite file above.
