Frequently asked questions about ClawLink
ClawLink is a hosted integration layer for OpenClaw, Hermes, and similar agent workflows. Install once, pair once, connect apps from the dashboard, and let ClawLink handle the provider-side integration work.
No. OpenClaw is one supported client, and Hermes is another. The setup flow changes slightly per client, but the ClawLink account, connections, and hosted execution layer are shared.
If you wire providers directly, you own auth flows, token refresh, permission drift, retries, logging, and failure handling. ClawLink takes that work off the critical path so the agent can just use connected tools.
No. Provider credentials never touch your machine. For hosted OAuth connections, tokens are vaulted by Composio, ClawLink's credential infrastructure partner — ClawLink keeps only a reference to your connected account. API keys you enter manually are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest. Your local client stores only the ClawLink device credential created during pairing. See Security for details.
ClawLink supports a growing catalog of 200+ apps across communication, productivity, developer tools, CRM, payments, analytics, storage, marketing, AI, and commerce. The docs site covers the most common categories and setup guides, but the dashboard catalog is the current source of truth.
Install the plugin, start browser pairing, approve the device, then connect apps from Dashboard > Connections. See OpenClaw setup for the full walkthrough.
Open Dashboard > Install, copy the Hermes bootstrap prompt, paste it into Hermes, approve the browser pairing flow, then connect apps from the dashboard. See Hermes setup.
Use Dashboard > Request App, or ask in the Discord community.
Older docs mixed together install, pairing, and edge-case support articles. The current recommended path is simpler: install once, pair once, connect apps from the dashboard, then use them from your agent.
No for normal use. If you want to extend the platform or contribute integrations, that does require working in the main codebase.
ClawLink retries transient failures when it can. If a request still fails, the failure is recorded in Usage so you can inspect the integration, action, status, and latency.
Yes. Each install should run its own pairing flow so it has its own local device credential. The connected apps still belong to the same ClawLink account.
New accounts get a 7-day free trial with the first app included and no card required. After that, continue on Starter ($4.99 your first month, then $7.99/mo) or Ultra Heavy ($19.99/mo, unlimited tool calls). See the Billing page for details.
The fastest path is the support chat in the dashboard — open it from the chat launcher and a real person replies within a few minutes. For bugs or feature requests, you can also post in the Discord community. For security issues, email security@claw-link.dev.
