OpenClaw 8Sleep Integration: Smart Mattress Automation

8Sleep smart mattresses track sleep stages, heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, and bed temperature throughout the night. Connecting this data to OpenClaw creates a health-aware AI assistant that includes sleep quality in your morning briefings, identifies patterns in your sleep over time, and can even adjust your bed temperature through chat commands.

Why Connect 8Sleep to OpenClaw?

Sleep quality directly impacts cognitive performance, decision-making, and energy levels. Most founders and executives check their 8Sleep app in the morning, note their sleep score, and move on. With OpenClaw, your sleep data becomes part of a broader context that your AI assistant uses to serve you better.

Imagine your morning briefing opening with: "You slept 6.2 hours with a sleep score of 68 — below your 30-day average of 78. Your HRV was low at 32ms. You have a board presentation at 2pm. Consider rescheduling your 4pm workout to noon for better energy timing." That is the kind of contextual intelligence the 8Sleep integration enables.

How Do You Access the 8Sleep API?

8Sleep does not offer an official public API, but community developers have documented the endpoints used by the 8Sleep mobile app. OpenClaw authenticates using your 8Sleep account credentials to access sleep data and temperature controls.

You will need your 8Sleep account email and password. Store these as environment variables — never put credentials directly in configuration files:

export EIGHT_SLEEP_EMAIL="your@email.com"
export EIGHT_SLEEP_PASSWORD="your_password"

Note: Since this uses an unofficial API, 8Sleep may change endpoints without notice. The OpenClaw community maintains updated endpoint documentation, and we monitor for breaking changes in managed deployments.

How Do You Configure OpenClaw for 8Sleep?

Add the 8Sleep integration to your OpenClaw configuration:

{
  "integrations": {
    "eight_sleep": {
      "enabled": true,
      "email": "${EIGHT_SLEEP_EMAIL}",
      "password": "${EIGHT_SLEEP_PASSWORD}",
      "side": "left",
      "data_points": ["sleep_score", "duration", "hrv", "heart_rate", "stages", "respiratory_rate"]
    }
  }
}

The side field specifies which side of the bed is yours (left or right) for dual-zone 8Sleep models. The data_points array controls which metrics OpenClaw retrieves.

How Do You Add Sleep Data to Morning Briefings?

Include 8Sleep data in your scheduled morning briefing prompt:

{
  "name": "morning-briefing",
  "cron": "0 7 * * *",
  "prompt": "Generate my morning briefing. Start with last night's sleep data from 8Sleep (score, duration, HRV, deep sleep percentage). Then cover today's calendar, pending tasks, and top 3 industry news items. If my sleep score is below 70, suggest schedule adjustments for better energy management."
}

Over weeks and months, OpenClaw accumulates enough sleep data to identify patterns. It might notice that your sleep score drops on nights after late meetings, improves when your bed temperature is set two degrees lower, or correlates with specific workout timing.

How Do You Automate Temperature Controls?

OpenClaw can adjust your 8Sleep bed temperature through chat commands or automated rules:

Manual commands: "Set my bed to -3 for tonight" or "Make the bed warmer" — OpenClaw translates these to API calls.

Automated rules: Configure temperature adjustments based on conditions:

{
  "eight_sleep_automations": [
    {
      "trigger": "sleep_score_below_70_3_nights",
      "action": "decrease_temperature_by_1"
    },
    {
      "trigger": "outdoor_temp_above_85",
      "action": "set_temperature_minus_4"
    }
  ]
}

These automations let your sleep environment adapt based on your actual sleep data and external conditions, closing the loop between sleep tracking and sleep optimization.

FAQ

Does 8Sleep have an official API for OpenClaw integration?

8Sleep does not offer a fully public API. However, community developers have reverse-engineered the 8Sleep app's API endpoints, and OpenClaw can use these to pull sleep data and control temperature settings. The integration works through authenticated HTTP requests using your 8Sleep account credentials.

What sleep data can OpenClaw pull from 8Sleep?

OpenClaw can retrieve sleep score, total sleep duration, time in each sleep stage (deep, REM, light), heart rate data, HRV (heart rate variability), respiratory rate, bed temperature history, and time to fall asleep. This data feeds into morning briefings and weekly health trend analysis.

Can OpenClaw adjust my 8Sleep bed temperature automatically?

Yes. OpenClaw can send temperature adjustment commands to the 8Sleep API. You can set up rules like "If my sleep score has been below 75 for three nights, lower the bed temperature by 2 degrees" or simply tell OpenClaw "Make the bed cooler tonight" through chat.

How does the 8Sleep integration fit into the OpenClaw morning briefing?

Add a sleep data section to your scheduled morning briefing. OpenClaw pulls last night's sleep score, duration, and key metrics from 8Sleep and includes them in the briefing alongside your calendar, tasks, and news. Over time, OpenClaw can identify patterns like "Your sleep score drops when you have meetings after 7pm."
