CarsXE

Access the full suite of CarsXE vehicle data APIs — VIN decoding, license plate lookup, market value, vehicle history, safety recalls (VIN, year/make/model, or batch), lien/theft checks, OBD-II diagnostic code decoding, vehicle images, international VIN decoding, Year/Make/Model lookups, YMM options, ownership (Enterprise), and plate/VIN OCR from images. Use this skill any time the user asks about a vehicle by VIN, plate, make/model, or OBD code. Also triggers for: "what's this car worth", "check for recalls", "any recalls on a 2023 Toyota Camry", "check recalls for this list of VINs", "what Toyota models were sold in 2023", "who is the registered owner", "vehicle history report", "decode this plate", "what does check engine code X mean", or any automotive data query. Always use this skill when working with CarsXE APIs — do not guess API behavior without it.

# CarsXE Skill

CarsXE provides a REST API for comprehensive vehicle data at `https://api.carsxe.com`.

Detailed parameter notes for newer endpoints live in `{baseDir}/references/`.

## API Key

The API key is injected as the `CARSXE_KEY` environment variable. Read it before
making any request:

- Use `process.env.CARSXE_KEY` in Node.js
- Use `$env:CARSXE_KEY` in PowerShell
- Use `$CARSXE_KEY` in bash/zsh

If `CARSXE_KEY` is empty or missing, tell the user to run:

```
openclaw config set skills.entries.carsxe.env.CARSXE_KEY "cxe_live_YOUR_KEY"
```

Then restart the gateway.

Always append `&source=openclaw` to every request.

# CarsXE Skill for OpenClaw

Access the full suite of [CarsXE](https://api.carsxe.com) vehicle data APIs from [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai) — decode VINs, look up license plates, get market values, check history, recalls (VIN, YMM, or batch), YMM options, ownership, liens, OBD codes, and more.

Published on ClawHub as [@carsxe/carsxe](https://clawhub.ai/carsxe/carsxe).

## Features

| Intent | Endpoint |
| --- | --- |
| Decode a VIN / specs | `GET /specs` |
| License plate lookup | `GET /v2/platedecoder` |
| Market value | `GET /v2/marketvalue` |
| Vehicle history | `GET /history` |
| Vehicle images | `GET /images` |
| Safety recalls (VIN) | `GET /v1/recalls` |
| Safety recalls (year/make/model) | `GET /v1/recalls-ymm` |
| Safety recalls (batch) | `POST/GET /v1/recalls-batch/*` |
| Lien & theft | `GET /v1/lien-theft` |
| International VIN | `GET /v1/international-vin-decoder` |
| Year/Make/Model specs | `GET /v1/ymm` |
| YMM options (dropdowns) | `GET /v1/ymm-options` |
| Ownership (Enterprise) | `GET /v1/ownership/vin\|person\|address\|zip` |
| OBD-II decoder | `GET /obdcodesdecoder` |
| VIN OCR | `POST /v1/vinocr` |
| Plate OCR | `POST /platerecognition` |

The skill is auto-invoked from natural language. Agents call `https://api.carsxe.com` with `key=$CARSXE_KEY` and `source=openclaw` on every request.

## Installation

```bash
openclaw skills install carsxe
```

Or from ClawHub:

```bash
openclaw skills install @carsxe/carsxe
```

## Setup

Get an API key from the [CarsXE developer dashboard](https://api.carsxe.com/dashboard/developer), then:

```bash
openclaw config set skills.entries.carsxe.env.CARSXE_KEY "cxe_live_YOUR_KEY"
```

Restart the OpenClaw gateway after setting the key.

## Usage examples

Just describe what you need — OpenClaw selects the endpoint and chains calls when required.

- *"What are the specs for VIN WBAFR7C57CC811956?"* → `/specs`
- *"Decode California plate 7XER187"* → `/v2/platedecoder`
- *"What's this car worth?"* → `/v2/marketvalue`
- *"Does this VIN have any recalls?"* → `/v1/recalls`
- *"Any recalls on a 2023 Toyota Camry?"* → `/v1/recalls-ymm`
- *"Check recalls for this list of VINs"* → `/v1/recalls-batch/*`
- *"What Toyota models were sold in 2023?"* → `/v1/ymm-options`
- *"Who is the registered owner of this VIN?"* → `/v1/ownership/vin`
- *"Check liens and theft for this VIN"* → `/v1/lien-theft`
- *"My check engine light shows P0300"* → `/obdcodesdecoder`

# CarsXE API reference (OpenClaw)

**Base URL:** `https://api.carsxe.com`

Append `key=$CARSXE_KEY` and `source=openclaw` on **every** request.

Do **not** call `usPlateDecoder` or `/v1/ownership/phone`.

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| VIN specs | `/specs` | GET | `vin`; optional `deepdata`, `disableIntVINDecoding` |
| Plate decoder | `/v2/platedecoder` | GET | `plate`, `country` (required); optional `state`, `district` |

## Routing

- Recalls: VIN → `/v1/recalls`; year/make/model → `/v1/recalls-ymm`; many VINs → `/v1/recalls-batch/*`
- YMM: dropdowns / "what years was X sold" → `/v1/ymm-options`; full specs → `/v1/ymm`
- Ownership is Enterprise-only and billed per returned record. Street `address` is street only (no city/state).

## Details

- [Recalls by YMM](recalls-ymm.md)
- [Recalls Batch](recalls-batch.md)
- [YMM Options](ymm-options.md)
- [Ownership](ownership.md)

references/ownership.md

# Ownership (Enterprise)

Registered owners and residents. Requires an Enterprise `ownership` entitlement. Billed per returned record (`owners` / `matches` / `records`), not per request.

Do **not** call `/v1/ownership/phone`.

`include` is optional: comma-separated `demographics,emails,phones,vehicle_history`. Omit it to get everything. `include` only shapes which sections are shown; it does not change billing.

Street `address` is street only — no city or state (max 100). ZIP is 5-digit US (person/address may be ZIP+4; zip lookup is exactly 5 digits).

HTTP 404 / `error: "no_data"` means no match and is **not** billed. HTTP 401 / entitlement error means the key is not entitled.

## VIN

```
GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/ownership/vin?key=$CARSXE_KEY&vin={VIN}&source=openclaw[&include={INCLUDE}]
```

Required: 17-character VIN.

## Person

```
GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/ownership/person?key=$CARSXE_KEY&first_name={FIRST}&last_name={LAST}&address={ADDRESS}&zip={ZIP}&source=openclaw[&include={INCLUDE}]
```

Required: `first_name`, `last_name`, street `address`, `zip`.

## Address

```
GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/ownership/address?key=$CARSXE_KEY&address={ADDRESS}&zip={ZIP}&source=openclaw[&include={INCLUDE}]
```

Required: street `address`, `zip`.

## ZIP

```
GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/ownership/zip?key=$CARSXE_KEY&zip={ZIP}&source=openclaw[&gender={GENDER}][&min_age={MIN}][&max_age={MAX}][&income={INCOME}][&page={PAGE}][&limit={LIMIT}][&include={INCLUDE}]
```

Required: 5-digit `zip`. Optional: `gender` (`M` or `F`), `min_age`, `max_age`, `income` (code or label), `page` (default 1), `limit` (default 15, max 100).

Warn before a ZIP search with a high `limit` — one page can bill many units.
