--- name: manus description: Create and manage AI agent tasks via Manus API. Manus is an autonomous AI agent that can browse the web, use tools, and deliver complete work products. homepage: https://manus.im metadata: {"clawdbot":{"emoji":"🤖","requires":{"env":["MANUS_API_KEY"]},"primaryEnv":"MANUS_API_KEY"}} --- # Manus AI Agent Use the Manus API to create autonomous AI tasks. Manus can browse the web, use tools, and deliver complete results (reports, code, presentations, etc.). ## API Base `https://api.manus.ai/v1` ## Authentication Header: `[REDACTED_SECRET]` Set via: - `MANUS_API_KEY` env var - Or `skills.manus.apiKey` in clawdbot config ## Recommended Workflow When using Manus for tasks that produce files (slides, reports, etc.): 1. **Create the task** with `createShareableLink: true` 2. **Poll for completion** using the task_id 3. **Extract output files** from the response and download them locally 4. **Deliver to user** via direct file attachment (don't rely on manus.im share links) ## Create a Task ```bash curl -X POST "https://api.manus.ai/v1/tasks" \ -H "[REDACTED_SECRET]" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "prompt": "Your task description here", "agentProfile": "manus-1.6", "taskMode": "agent", "createShareableLink": true }' ``` Response: ```json { "task_id": "abc123", "task_title": "Task Title", "task_url": "https://manus.im/app/abc123" } ``` ## Agent Profiles | Profile | Description | Use for | |---------|-------------|---------| | `manus-1.6` | Standard (default) | Most tasks | | `manus-1.6-lite` | Faster, lighter | Quick/simple stuff | | `manus-1.6-max` | Complex, thorough | Deep research/analysis | **Default:** Always use `manus-1.6` unless user specifies otherwise. ## Task Modes | Mode | Description | |------|-------------| | `chat` | Conversational mode | | `adaptive` | Auto-selects best approach | | `agent` | Full autonomous agent mode (recommended for file creation) | ## Get Task Status & Output ```bash curl "https://api.manus.ai/v1/tasks/{task_id}" \ -H "[REDACTED_SECRET]" ``` Status values: `pending`, `running`, `completed`, `failed` **Important:** When status is `completed`, check the `output` array for files: - Look for `type: "output_file"` entries - Download files from `fileUrl` directly - Save locally and send to user as attachments ## Extracting Output Files The task response includes output like: ```json { "output": [ { "content": [ { "type": "output_file", "fileUrl": "https://private-us-east-1.manuscdn.com/...", "fileName": "presentation.pdf" } ] } ] } ``` Download these files with curl and deliver directly to the user rather than relying on share URLs. ## List Tasks ```bash curl "https://api.manus.ai/v1/tasks" \ -H "[REDACTED_SECRET]" ``` ## Best Practices 1. **Always poll for completion** before telling user the task is done 2. **Download output files locally** instead of giving manus.im links (they can be unreliable) 3. **Use `agent` mode** for tasks that create files/documents 4. **Set reasonable expectations** — Manus tasks can take 2-10+ minutes for complex work ## Docs - API Reference: https://open.manus.ai/docs - Main Docs: https://manus.im/docs
