OpenClaw Integration

Overview

OpenClaw is an open-source agent platform for deploying self-hosted AI assistants across Telegram, Discord, Slack, and more from one configuration. Set its openai provider to UnoRouter's base URL and every channel reaches the full model catalog through a single OpenAI-compatible key.

Quick Config

Drop these values into the client. Your key auto-fills when you are signed in.

Base URL: https://api.unorouter.com/v1
API Key: YOUR_API_KEY

Compatibility

Step-by-step setup

1. 1
   Install and onboard

   Install OpenClaw globally with npm, then run `openclaw onboard` to scaffold the config.

   bash

   npm install -g openclaw@latest
   openclaw onboard

   Sign in to auto-fill your API key

2. 2
   Point the provider at UnoRouter

   Edit `~/.openclaw/config.json` so the openai provider uses UnoRouter's base URL and reads the API key from the `OPENAI_API_KEY` env var. Set your default model under agents.

   json

   // ~/.openclaw/config.json
   {
     "env": { "OPENAI_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
     "agents": {
       "defaults": { "model": { "primary": "openai/YOUR_MODEL_ID" } }
     },
     "providers": {
       "openai": {
         "baseUrl": "https://api.unorouter.com/v1",
         "apiKey": "env:OPENAI_API_KEY"
       }
     }
   }

   Sign in to auto-fill your API key

3. 3
   Start OpenClaw

   Run `openclaw start` to launch the agent against UnoRouter.

   bash

   openclaw start

   Sign in to auto-fill your API key

# In %APPDATA%\openclaw\config.json set
# providers.openai.baseUrl to "https://api.unorouter.com/v1"
$env:OPENAI_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Recommended models

Free models that work well here. Paste any model id into the client.

Gotchas

• !If OpenClaw cannot reach the API, confirm `providers.openai.baseUrl` ends in `/v1` and `OPENAI_API_KEY` is exported in the same shell.
• !If the model is rejected, set `agents.defaults.model.primary` to a valid id prefixed with `openai/`, copied exactly from UnoRouter's models page.
