OpenClaw
OpenClaw is an open-source, self-hosted personal AI agent and gateway platform. It seamlessly connects multi-channel messages from Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, and more to AI agents running on local hardware, supporting multi-agent cooperative routing, persistent memory, and autonomous tool calling, allowing developers to take full control of their private AI assistants.

🔑 Prerequisites
sk-...🚀 Steps
Install and Initialize OpenClaw
OpenClaw supports one-click installation on macOS and Linux:
# 1. Run the official one-click installation script
curl -fsSL https://openclaw.ai/install.sh | bash
# 2. Run the basic onboarding wizard
openclaw onboard --install-daemonThe wizard will complete basic gateway process initialization and daemon registration.
Configure OpenRely Endpoint and Models
OpenClaw uses ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json to manage multi-model gateway configurations. Open this file and declare the openrely custom provider under models.providers:
{
models: {
mode: "merge",
providers: {
openrely: {
baseUrl: "https://api.openrely.ai/v1",
apiKey: "sk-your-openrely-api-key", // Or use environment variable "${OPENRELY_API_KEY}"
api: "openai-completions",
models: [
{ id: "<primary_model_id>", name: "Primary Model" },
{ id: "<fallback_model_id>", name: "Fallback Model" }
],
},
},
},
agents: {
defaults: {
model: {
primary: "openrely/<primary_model_id>",
fallbacks: ["openrely/<fallback_model_id>"],
},
},
},
}Start and Verify
Check the OpenClaw gateway daemon status and open the web management dashboard:
# 1. Check gateway service status
openclaw gateway status
# 2. Open visual management dashboard
