Configure OpenClaw

After running the installation command above, the configuration process will start automatically. If it doesn't start, you can run the following command to begin configuration:

openclaw onboard

The wizard will interactively guide you through: AI models, chat channels, skills, hooks, gateway services, etc.

Security Notice: Read and select Yes to continue
Onboarding Mode: Select QuickStart (recommended), using default port 18789, binding to 127.0.0.1
AI Model / Channel / API_KEY / Skills / Hooks: Configure as needed or skip all for now, you can configure models and keys uniformly in "Connect to OriginRouter" later

Startup Methods

Two optional methods:

Method	Use Case	Operation
Foreground	Quick testing, don't want to use admin	Run `openclaw gateway` in terminal, don't close this window, then access console via browser
Daemon	Long-term use, auto-start on boot	Open PowerShell as administrator, re-run `openclaw onboard` or `openclaw gateway install`, then `openclaw gateway start`

Control UI Information (displayed at the end of the wizard, please save it):

Web UI: http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Web UI (with token): http://127.0.0.1:18789/#token=your_token
Gateway WS: ws://127.0.0.1:18789

Please always use the link with token to open the console, otherwise you may encounter "token_missing" or "too many failed authentication attempts".

You can also run openclaw dashboard at any time to open the browser.

Edit Configuration File

Find the local configuration file openclaw.json:

Windows: C:\Users\YourUsername\.openclaw\openclaw.json
macOS / Linux: ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

Depending on your subscription plan, copy the matching template below verbatim:

openclaw.json

For users on the pay-as-you-go API plan. Requests are served via the /beta/v1 endpoint and billed per request.

{
  "models": {
    "mode": "merge",
      "providers": {
      "originrouter": {
        "baseUrl": "https://api.easytransnote.com/beta/v1",
        "apiKey": "${MY_API_KEY}",
        "api": "openai-completions",
        "models": [
          {
            "id": "gpt-5.4",
            "name": "GPT-5.4",
            "reasoning": true,
            "input": ["text", "image"],
            "cost": { "input": 2.5, "output": 15, "cacheRead": 0.25, "cacheWrite": 0.25 },
            "contextWindow": 400000,
            "maxTokens": 128000
          },
          {
            "id": "gemini-3.1-pro-preview",
            "name": "Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview",
            "reasoning": true,
            "input": ["text", "image"],
            "cost": { "input": 2, "output": 12, "cacheRead": 0.2, "cacheWrite": 0.2 },
            "contextWindow": 1048576,
            "maxTokens": 65536
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

With an OriginRouter One subscription, choose the corresponding Coding API endpoint and make sure the model ID comes from the Supported Models list; with the pay-as-you-go API plan, choose the corresponding Beta API endpoint and make sure the model ID comes from the Model List; a plan and endpoint mismatch may make models unavailable or result in unexpected billing.

OpenClaw provides more channels for you to interact with the bot, such as Web UI, Discord, Slack, etc. You can set up these channels by referring to the official documentation: Channels Setup

For Web UI, you can access it by opening the Web UI (with token) link displayed in the terminal
