📞 Vapi Restaurant Reservation Skill

An OpenClaw skill that makes restaurant reservations by having an AI agent call the restaurant on your behalf using Vapi.

"Hey Boba, book a table for 2 at Rijks tonight at 8pm"

Your AI assistant picks up the phone, calls the restaurant, and books the table.

How It Works

1. You tell your AI assistant you want a reservation
2. The skill calls the restaurant via Vapi's phone API
3. An AI voice agent speaks with the restaurant staff
4. You get a confirmation (or retry suggestion) back in chat

Quick Start

1. Install the skill

Copy SKILL.md and vapi-call.js to your OpenClaw skills directory:

# In your OpenClaw workspace
mkdir -p skills/vapi-reservation
cp SKILL.md vapi-call.js skills/vapi-reservation/

2. Set up Vapi

1. Create an account at vapi.ai
2. Create a phone assistant (see SKILL.md for the recommended prompt)
3. Get your API key from the dashboard

3. Configure environment

Add to your OpenClaw config (env.vars):

{
  "VAPI_API_KEY": "your-vapi-api-key",
  "VAPI_ASSISTANT_ID": "your-assistant-id",
  "VAPI_PHONE_NUMBER_ID": "your-phone-number-id",
  "RESERVATION_NAME": "Your Name",
  "CALLBACK_NUMBER": "+1234567890"
}

4. Use it

Just ask your assistant to make a reservation! The skill triggers on natural language like:

• "Book a table at [restaurant] for [date/time]"
• "Call [restaurant] and reserve a table"
• "Make a dinner reservation for 4 on Friday"

Standalone Usage

Works without OpenClaw too:

export VAPI_API_KEY="your-key"
export VAPI_ASSISTANT_ID="your-assistant-id"

node vapi-call.js \
  --restaurant_name "Rijks Restaurant" \
  --restaurant_phone "+31205747450" \
  --date "Friday March 13" \
  --time "8pm" \
  --party_size 2 \
  --name "Jane Smith"
