OpenClaw

OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI assistant that can run on your own devices and connect to messaging channels you already use. It connects to Routeway through the OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions endpoint.

Requires a valid Routeway API key. Get yours from the dashboard.

Setup

Install OpenClaw

Ensure OpenClaw is installed and running on your device. Follow the official OpenClaw documentation for installation instructions.

Update your OpenClaw config

Open ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json and add a provider named routeway. Replace YOUR_MODEL_ID with a model from routeway.ai/models:

{
  "models": {
    "mode": "merge",
    "providers": {
      "routeway": {
        "baseUrl": "https://api.routeway.ai/v1",
        "apiKey": "YOUR_ROUTEWAY_API_KEY",
        "api": "openai-completions",
        "models": [
          {
            "id": "YOUR_MODEL_ID",
            "name": "Routeway model",
            "api": "openai-completions"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  },
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "model": {
        "primary": "routeway/YOUR_MODEL_ID"
      }
    }
  }
}

If your OpenClaw setup expects more model metadata, copy an existing provider entry and only change the base URL, API key, and model ID.

Apply the config

Apply the updated file and restart OpenClaw if needed:

openclaw gateway config.apply --file ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

Verify the connection

Start OpenClaw and run a simple prompt. If the assistant responds and your selected model is shown correctly, the integration is working.

Notes

Base URL must include /v1: https://api.routeway.ai/v1
OpenClaw model names use the provider prefix, e.g. routeway/YOUR_MODEL_ID
Keep real API keys out of version control
