Install and run
Setup complexity: low.
clawhub skill install s1776cmdzgbfm66h1ywyxhz6b585s9ca:happenstance- Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.
Contract: missing

# Happenstance
Search your network and get detailed research profiles on people using the Happenstance API.
Documentation: https://developer.happenstance.ai
## Authentication
All requests require the `HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY` environment variable. Pass it as a Bearer token:
```
Authorization: Bearer $HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY
```
Base URL: `https://api.happenstance.ai`
## Billing
- **Search**: 2 credits per search (including find-more)
- **Research**: 1 credit per completed research
- Check balance with `GET /v1/usage`
- Purchase credits at https://happenstance.ai/settings/api
## Available Operations
### 1. Search Your Network
Search for people across groups and connections. Searches run asynchronously.
**Start a search:**
```bash
curl -s -X POST https://api.happenstance.ai/v1/search \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"text": "engineers who have worked on AI infrastructure",
"include_my_connections": true,
"include_friends_connections": true
}'
```
You can also search within specific groups by adding `"group_ids": ["uuid1", "uuid2"]`. Get group IDs from `GET /v1/groups`.
At least one search source is required: `group_ids`, `include_my_connections: true`, or `include_friends_connections: true`.
**Response:**
```json
{"id": "search-uuid", "url": "https://happenstance.ai/search/search-uuid"}
```
**Poll for results** (every 5-10 seconds until status is `COMPLETED` or `FAILED`):
```bash
curl -s https://api.happenstance.ai/v1/search/SEARCH_ID \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY"
```
**Completed response includes:**
- `status`: `RUNNING`, `COMPLETED`, or `FAILED`
- `results`: array of people, each with `id`, `name`, `current_title`, `current_company`, `summary`, `weighted_traits_score`, `socials` (with `happenstance_url`, `linkedin_url`, `twitter_url`), `mutuals`, and `traits`
- `has_more`: boolean indicating if more results are available
- `mutuals`: top-level array of mutual connections (results reference these by index)
- `traits`: top-level array of trait definitions (results reference these by index)
### 2. Find More Results
When `has_more` is `true` on a completed search, get additional results that exclude all previously returned people. Costs 2 credits.
```bash
curl -s -X POST https://api.happenstance.ai/v1/search/SEARCH_ID/find-more \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY"
```
**Response:**
```json
{"page_id": "page-uuid", "parent_search_id": "search-uuid"}
```
Then poll with the page_id:
```bash
curl -s "https://api.happenstance.ai/v1/search/SEARCH_ID?page_id=PAGE_ID" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY"
```

## Description: Search your professional network and research people using the Happenstance API. This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. ## Publisher: [almostimplemented](https://clawhub.ai/user/almostimplemented) ### License/Terms of Use: ## Use Case: Developers and operators use this skill to search professional networks, research individual profiles, page through Happenstance results, list searchable groups, and check API credit usage. ### Deployment Geography for Use: Global ## Known Risks and Mitigations: Risk: Search terms, person descriptions, network-scope choices, and returned profile details may contain sensitive personal or professional data. Mitigation: Submit only necessary information to Happenstance and avoid unnecessary sensitive personal data about third parties. Risk: The HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY grants authenticated access to paid API operations and usage data. Mitigation: Store the key in an environment variable or secret manager and avoid including it in prompts, logs, code snippets, or shared transcripts. Risk: Search and research operations consume Happenstance credits and may fail when credits are insufficient or concurrent request limits are reached. Mitigation: Check usage before starting batches and handle 402 and 429 responses with appropriate user confirmation or retry behavior. ## Reference(s): - [Happenstance Developer Documentation](https://developer.happenstance.ai) - [Happenstance Skill on ClawHub](https://clawhub.ai/almostimplemented/skills/happenstance) ## Skill Output: **Output Type(s):** [guidance, shell commands, configuration] **Output Format:** [Markdown with inline bash commands and JSON examples] **Output Parameters:** [1D] **Other Properties Related to Output:** [Requires HAPPENSTANCE_API_KEY and curl; Happenstance searches and research requests run asynchronously and require polling.] ## Skill Version(s): 1.0.0 (source: server release metadata) ## Ethical Considerations: Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
