Hosted models
Direct model APIs and subscription-backed coding providers.
Connect OpenClaw to the chats, models, tools, and devices you already use.
Bring API keys, sign in with supported subscriptions, route through a gateway, or run models locally. Extend the runtime with official plugins and community skills.
