Mac App — Version 3.1

CLAW Agent Builder

A guided Mac wizard that shapes a complete, drop-in OpenClaw agent workspace in plain English — identity, founder context, tools, channels, providers, and a tuned config patch — then exports the whole pack for you to review and apply. No account, no cloud, no subscription.

OpenClaw Field Guide New in 3.1

A new always-available reference section, fully offline. It walks you through installing OpenClaw and running it for the first time, applying an exported pack into your live workspace, the full CLI cheatsheet, troubleshooting first-aid, the workspace-file reference, supported channels and skills, model providers, environment variables, onboarding flags, and a plain-English glossary. Because the sandboxed app can’t run the installer for you, this is the in-app handbook that finishes the job — and the one you keep coming back to once your agent is live. Every command is copy-ready.

Pre-export Preflight Check New in 3.1

Before you ship a pack into a live workspace, a whole-build validator catches the real cross-section mistakes the per-page nudges miss: a missing agent name, no model provider, daily questions switched on with no approved channel to ask in, a BlueBubbles bridge selected without its iMessage channel, founder-profile injection on with an empty profile, real keys about to be baked into a shareable pack, and more. Each finding is graded (needs fixing, worth a look, heads up) with a one-click jump straight to the page that owns it.

The reference travels with your pack New in 3.1

Every export now bundles two new documents. FIELD_GUIDE.md carries the same install-to-troubleshoot reference into your workspace, so the knowledge stays with the files even after the app is gone. BUILD_CHECKS.md records the exact preflight result at export time — a paper trail of what was flagged, so you can act on it later.

A real OpenClaw workspace, not a profile Since 3.0

The export is a genuine drop-in pack: AGENTS, SOUL, IDENTITY, USER, TOOLS, MEMORY, HEARTBEAT, BOOT, BOOTSTRAP, DREAMS, and README, plus a founder layer, starter memory scaffolds, skill stubs, an API catalog, a safe-by-default .env.example, and an openclaw.config.patch.json you review and merge by hand.

Plain-English wizard

Answer simple questions — the agent’s name, voice, daily routine, which tools it can use, which providers it talks to — and the app assembles the files for you. No need to learn the workspace format first.

Starting presets

Pick a preset that sounds like the agent you want — Founder Copilot, Operator, Research, Social, Builder/Coder, or Support — and you’re most of the way to a real workspace. Everything stays editable, with one-click undo.

Founder file

A 50-question founder questionnaire builds a private long-form FOUNDER.md and a compact FOUNDER_PROFILE.md, so the agent makes aligned judgment calls instead of generic ones.

Provider key sanity check

Pick your model provider, paste a key, and validate it without leaving the app. Keys are safe-by-default — the generated env file ships with blank placeholders unless you deliberately opt in.

Durable data sources

Bundle durable public APIs — National Weather Service, Open-Meteo, NASA, USGS, World Bank, FRED — into an API catalog and setup notes the agent can lean on.

Drafts & autosave

Save drafts and retune the same agent later. A background autosave means a session interrupted mid-tuning is never lost.

CLAW Agent Builder is a fully sandboxed Mac app. It writes generated files only into folders you pick, and uses the network solely to validate a provider key you enter when you tap “Test key.” There is no account, no analytics, and no bundled AI model. To install OpenClaw itself, follow the one-liner in the in-app Field Guide once. Reference content is drawn from the official OpenClaw documentation at docs.openclaw.ai.
