Pexels + OpenClaw

Give your autonomous agents a live connection to Pexels: managed, secure, and ready in minutes.

Pexels is a free stock library offering high-quality photos and videos via API. On Molted, your OpenClaw agents connect to Pexels through the managed MCP integration layer, with no glue code, no servers to run, and no credentials baked into containers. The agent can automate tasks and connect this tool to the rest of your stack for Pexels, autonomously and within the guardrails you set.

How the connection works

Connect once. The agent acts.

Pexels connects with an API key you provide once; it is encrypted at rest and never shipped inside the agent's pod. Everything runs through Molted's managed MCP layer, so there is no integration code to write and nothing to keep running.

01

The agent requests access

Your OpenClaw agent asks for Pexels when a task needs it.

02

You approve the connection

Authorize Pexels once (API key). Credentials are encrypted at rest and scoped to what you allow.

03

The agent acts

It reads and writes to Pexels autonomously, inside your guardrails, with full audit and revocable access.

FAQ

Pexels on Molted, answered.

Q.01

Can OpenClaw agents use Pexels on Molted?

Yes. Pexels is one of 1,000+ apps available through Molted's managed MCP integration layer. Your agent requests access, you approve the connection, and it can act on Pexels straight away, with no integration code to write or maintain.

Q.02

How do I connect Pexels to my agent?

Pexels connects with an API key you provide once; it is encrypted at rest and never shipped inside the agent's pod.

Q.03

What can an agent actually do with Pexels?

Within the permissions you grant, an agent can automate tasks and connect this tool to the rest of your stack. Pexels lets your agent glue this service to the rest of your stack without writing code.

Q.04

Is my Pexels data and credentials secure?

Yes. Molted never bakes credentials into the agent's pod: every connection is brokered through the managed integration layer, secrets are encrypted at rest, and access stays scoped to what you approve. You can revoke Pexels access at any time.

Q.05

Do I have to run any infrastructure to use Pexels?

No. Molted is the managed operating environment for autonomous agents: compute, the MCP layer, browser automation and self-healing are all handled for you. Connecting Pexels is a configuration step, not an engineering project.

Q.06

Does the Pexels integration cost extra on Molted?

No. Pexels is part of Molted's managed MCP integration layer at no extra per-app fee. You pay for agent compute and your plan; connecting Pexels and the other 1,000+ apps is included.
