OpenClaw
Prepare API Access
Have the three items below ready before you configure anything:
API Key
The key string you generated when creating your API Key.
Base URL
https://api.watt-cloud.com/v1
The trailing /v1 is required - do not drop it.
Model Name
Take the complete model identifier from the Model Marketplace, for example DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
Installing OpenClaw
On Linux or macOS, pipe the OpenClaw install script into bash:
curl -fsSL https://openclaw.ai/install.sh | bash
Windows instead gets a PowerShell one-liner:
iwr -useb https://openclaw.ai/install.ps1 | iex
Manual Configuration
Launch the OpenClaw terminal and enter:
openclaw configure
Then walk through the prompts in this order:
- Choose
local(this machine gets configured) - Choose
model - Pick
custom provider - When the platform address is requested, type
https://api.watt-cloud.com/v1 - Paste in your API Key
- Take the first option: OpenAI-compatible endpoint
- Supply a model name (
GLM-5.1/DeepSeek-V4-Pro/MiniMax-M2.7) - Let the verification run to completion
- Change the provider name to one you set yourself ("watt" or "mx" is recommended for easier handling)
- Optionally rename the model as well (short forms such as "glm", "deepseek" work well)
Restart the gateway so the new settings take effect:
openclaw gateway restart
Changing the Default Model from Chat Software (using Feishu as an example)
List what is available:
/models [your-provider-name]
For instance: /models watt
Then make the switch:
/model [provider-name]/[your-model-name]
For instance: /model watt/GLM-5.1
