clawtech-setup

Set up a claw agent with tapes.dev telemetry, clawtel leaderboard reporting, and the openclaw-in-a-box orchestrator.

What this installs

1. tapes.dev — records every AI request/response into a local SQLite store for search, audit, and replay
2. clawtel — reads aggregate token counts from tapes and reports them to the claw.tech leaderboard hourly
3. openclaw-in-a-box — orchestrator skill that configures integrations and boots an OpenClaw agent

Step 1: Install tapes

command -v tapes && tapes --version || curl -fsSL https://download.tapes.dev/install | bash

If the curl install fails, try: brew install papercomputeco/tap/tapes

Then initialize:

tapes init

Skip tapes init if ~/.tapes/ already exists.

Step 2: Install clawtel

Detect platform and download the latest release:

OS=$(uname -s | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
ARCH=$(uname -m); [ "$ARCH" = "x86_64" ] && ARCH="amd64"; [ "$ARCH" = "aarch64" ] && ARCH="arm64"
curl -fsSL "https://github.com/bdougie/clawtel/releases/latest/download/clawtel_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz" | tar xz
mv clawtel /usr/local/bin/

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/bdougie/clawtel.git && cd clawtel
CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -ldflags="-s -w" -o clawtel .
mv clawtel /usr/local/bin/

Step 3: Register your claw and configure clawtel

Register your claw at claw.tech/setup to receive a CLAW_ID (uuid) and CLAW_INGEST_KEY (ik_...). The ingest key is shown once and cannot be retrieved again.

export CLAW_ID="your-claw-uuid"
export CLAW_INGEST_KEY="ik_your_key_here"

clawtel finds your tapes database automatically:

1. TAPES_DB env var (explicit override)
2. .mb/tapes/tapes.sqlite (openclaw-in-a-box layout)
3. ~/.tapes/tapes.sqlite (standalone tapes install)

Start clawtel:

clawtel

It logs its configuration on startup and sends one heartbeat per hour. Stop with Ctrl+C.

Security: clawtel only reads 4 columns from the tapes nodes table: created_at, model, prompt_tokens, completion_tokens. It never reads prompts, responses, tool calls, or project names. No key = no network calls.

Step 4: Fetch openclaw-in-a-box skill

mkdir -p skills/openclaw-in-a-box
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/papercomputeco/openclaw-in-a-box/main/SKILL.md \
  -o skills/openclaw-in-a-box/SKILL.md

Verify: head -5 skills/openclaw-in-a-box/SKILL.md should show name: openclaw-in-a-box.

Step 5: Verify and hand off

Print a status summary:

clawtech-setup complete:
  tapes:     [version] installed
  tapes db:  ~/.tapes/tapes.sqlite
  clawtel:   installed, CLAW_ID set, CLAW_INGEST_KEY set
  openclaw:  skills/openclaw-in-a-box/SKILL.md

Next: invoke the openclaw-in-a-box skill to configure integrations.

Then hand off to openclaw-in-a-box. That skill handles environment detection, model provider selection, integration setup, and booting the agent.

Updating

# Update openclaw-in-a-box skill
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/papercomputeco/openclaw-in-a-box/main/SKILL.md \
  -o skills/openclaw-in-a-box/SKILL.md

# Update clawtel binary
OS=$(uname -s | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
ARCH=$(uname -m); [ "$ARCH" = "x86_64" ] && ARCH="amd64"; [ "$ARCH" = "aarch64" ] && ARCH="arm64"
curl -fsSL "https://github.com/bdougie/clawtel/releases/latest/download/clawtel_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz" | tar xz
mv clawtel /usr/local/bin/

Rules

• Never store secrets in files. Tokens go in env vars or system keychains.
• Don't start tapes serve automatically — ask the user first.
• After setup, hand off to openclaw-in-a-box. Don't duplicate its orchestration logic.
