track17 (17TRACK parcel tracking)
This skill lets Clawdbot keep a local list of your parcels, track their state via the 17TRACK Tracking API v2.2, and summarise changes.
It stores everything in a small SQLite DB under your workspace (by default: <workspace>/packages/track17/track17.sqlite3).
<workspace> is auto-detected as the parent directory of the nearest skills/ directory that contains this skill.
For example, if you install it at /clawd/skills/track17/, data will be stored at /clawd/packages/track17/.
Requirements
- •
TRACK17_TOKENmust be set (17TRACK API token; used as the17tokenheader). - •Python (
python3preferred).
Optional:
- •
TRACK17_WEBHOOK_SECRETif you want to verify webhook signatures. - •
TRACK17_DATA_DIRto override where the DB/inbox live. - •
TRACK17_WORKSPACE_DIRto override what this tool considers the workspace directory.
Quick start
- •Initialise storage (safe to run multiple times):
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py init
- •Add a package (registers it with 17TRACK and stores it locally):
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py add "RR123456789CN" --label "AliExpress headphones"
If carrier auto-detection fails, specify a carrier code:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py add "RR123456789CN" --carrier 3011 --label "..."
- •List tracked packages:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py list
- •Poll for updates (recommended if you don't want webhooks):
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py sync
- •Show details for one package:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py status 1
# or
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py status "RR123456789CN"
Webhooks (optional)
17TRACK can push updates to a webhook URL. This skill supports webhook ingestion in two ways:
A) Run the included webhook server
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py webhook-server --bind 127.0.0.1 --port 8789
Then point 17TRACK's webhook URL at that server (ideally via a reverse proxy or Tailscale Funnel).
B) Ingest webhook payloads from stdin/file
cat payload.json | python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py ingest-webhook
# or
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py ingest-webhook --file payload.json
If you saved webhook deliveries to the inbox directory, process them:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py process-inbox
Common actions
- •Stop tracking:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py stop 1
- •Retrack a stopped parcel:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py retrack 1
- •Delete a parcel from local DB (does not delete at 17TRACK unless you also call
delete-remote):
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py remove 1
- •Show API quota:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/track17.py quota
Operating guidance for the agent
- •Prefer sync (polling) for simplicity unless the user explicitly wants webhooks.
- •After adding a package, run
statusonce to confirm a valid carrier/status was returned. - •When summarising, prioritise:
- •delivered/out for delivery
- •exception/failed delivery
- •customs holds
- •carrier handoffs
- •Never echo
TRACK17_TOKENorTRACK17_WEBHOOK_SECRET.
