Generate a new one in LibreNMS under Settings → API. **"Failed to connect"** Verify the URL is correct and the LibreNMS instance is reachable. Check firewall rules. **Self-signed cert warnings** The script uses `-sk` to ignore cert validation (common in LibreNMS setups). If you need strict validation, edit the script and remove the `-k` flag.

LibreNMS Skill
Monitor network infrastructure via LibreNMS REST API. Read-only monitoring skill for device status, health sensors, port statistics, and alerts.
Configuration
Create ~/.openclaw/credentials/librenms/config.json:
{
"url": "https://librenms.example.com",
"api_token": "your-api-token-here"
}
Or set environment variables:
LIBRENMS_URL— Base URL of your LibreNMS instanceLIBRENMS_TOKEN— API authentication token
Commands
Quick Overview
librenms summary
Dashboard view showing total devices, how many are up/down, and active alert count. Use this first to get a quick status overview.
Device Management
librenms devices # List all devices with status, IP, OS, uptime
librenms down # Show ONLY devices that are down (critical for alerting)
librenms device <hostname> # Detailed info: hardware, serial, location, OS version
Health Monitoring
librenms health <hostname> # Temperature, CPU, memory, disk usage sensors
librenms ports <hostname> # Network interfaces with traffic stats
Alerts
librenms alerts # Show active/unresolved alerts with severity and timestamps
Usage Patterns
Daily health check:
librenms summary && librenms down && librenms alerts
Investigate specific device:
librenms device switch-core-01
librenms health switch-core-01
librenms ports switch-core-01
Quick down-device triage:
librenms down | grep -v "UP"
Important Notes
- All operations are read-only — no device modifications possible
- The script accepts self-signed certificates (-sk flag for curl)
- Status indicators: ● green = up, ● red = down
- Uptime is formatted as human-readable (days/hours instead of seconds)
- Traffic stats are formatted as KB/MB/GB per second
Heartbeat Integration
Check infrastructure health periodically:
# In heartbeat script
if librenms down | grep -q "Devices Down"; then
# Alert on down devices
librenms down
fi
# Check for active alerts
if librenms alerts | grep -q "Active Alerts"; then
librenms alerts
fi
Dependencies

API Coverage
Wrapped endpoints:
/api/v0/devices— All devices/api/v0/devices/{hostname}— Single device details/api/v0/devices/{hostname}/health— Health sensors/api/v0/devices/{hostname}/ports— Network ports/api/v0/alerts?state=1— Unresolved alerts
Full API docs: https://docs.librenms.org/API/
Troubleshooting
"Config file not found"
Create ~/.openclaw/credentials/librenms/config.json or set env vars.
"API returned HTTP 401" Check your API token. Generate a new one in LibreNMS under Settings → API.
"Failed to connect" Verify the URL is correct and the LibreNMS instance is reachable. Check firewall rules.
Self-signed cert warnings
The script uses -sk to ignore cert validation (common in LibreNMS setups). If you need strict validation, edit the script and remove the -k flag.
