​

1.2 Start Free Plan

• Shared runtime environment

​

1.3 Configure Your Claw

1. Name — give your Claw a name (e.g., my-assistant)
2. Model — already pre-selected for the Free plan (Gemini 2.5 Flash). For paid plans, use the searchable model picker to choose from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.
3. API Key — Free plan: not needed (the platform provisions one automatically). For paid plans, get a key from your provider:

   Provider	API Key Page
   OpenAI	platform.openai.com/api-keys
   Anthropic	console.anthropic.com/settings/keys
   Google AI	aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
   DeepSeek	platform.deepseek.com/api_keys
   OpenRouter	openrouter.ai/settings/keys

4. Channels — select which messaging platform to connect:

   Channel	Required Fields	How to get them
   Telegram	Bot Token	Create a bot via @BotFather on Telegram
   Feishu	App ID, App Secret	Create a custom app on Feishu Open Platform

   See Connect Channel for step-by-step instructions.
5. Click Create Claw

​

Advanced Options

Click Advanced to expand these options. Defaults are auto-selected for most users.

​

1.4 Wait for Deployment

After clicking Create Claw, your assistant will be provisioned:

• Status: creating → setting up → running
• This typically takes 1–3 minutes
• Once the status shows running, your Claw is live!

​

Step 2: Pair Your Channel

Now that your Claw is running and a channel is set, complete the pairing process.

​

2.1 Pair Telegram

1. Chat via Telegram — Open Telegram and find your bot. Send a message — the bot will reply with a pairing code, for example:

   “Ask the bot owner to approve with: openclaw pairing approve telegram XXXXXXX”

   Copy the entire command.
2. Chat via Web (Built-in) — Go back to ClawUp Dashboard → Overview → Open Claw Chat. Send the full pairing code to your Claw.
3. Your Claw will reply: “Telegram has been approved”. If your Claw does not indicate success, send this message to your Claw:

   Configure Telegram, run the command: openclaw pairing approve telegram XXXXXX

4. Go back to Telegram and send a message to your bot — the bot should reply. Your Telegram channel is now connected! ✅

​

2.2 Pair Feishu

1. Chat via Feishu — Open Feishu and find your bot. Send a message — the bot will reply with a pairing code. Copy the entire command.
2. Chat via Web (Built-in) — Go back to ClawUp Dashboard → Overview → Open Claw Chat. Send the full pairing code to your Claw.
3. Your Claw will reply: “Feishu has been approved”. If your Claw does not indicate success, send this message to your Claw:

   Configure Feishu, run the command: openclaw pairing approve feishu XXXXXX

4. Go back to Feishu and send a message to your bot — the bot should reply. Your Feishu channel is now connected! ✅

💡 Tip: Web Chat is useful for quick testing. For daily use, Telegram or Feishu provides a much better experience with notifications, mobile access, and rich media support.

Step 3: Explore Tools

Make your Claw smarter by installing tools from the Marketplace.

1. Click Tools in the left sidebar → you’ll see the Marketplace tab
2. Find a tool you want (e.g., claw-connect for agent-to-agent communication)
3. Click Add to Claw, select which Claw to install it on
4. If the tool requires an API key, enter it when prompted
5. The tool is now active — your Claw can use its capabilities!

To manage installed tools, switch to the Installed tab where you can view, configure, or remove tools. Don’t see the tool you need? You can submit your own MCP server to the marketplace via Submit MCP in the top-right of the Marketplace tab. See Submitting MCP Tools for the review workflow.
