AirAPI Provider for OpenClaw

Use AirAPI models from OpenClaw with a single provider setup.

What this plugin does

• Adds one OpenClaw provider: airapi
• Prompts for AIRAPI_API_KEY during setup
• Supports these AirAPI model refs:
  • airapi/qwen/qwen3.5-9b
  • airapi/qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b
• Uses per-model runtime endpoints only:
  • qwen/qwen3.5-9b -> https://ap-1.aieev.cloud/ac/7/qwen3-5-9b/v1
  • qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b -> https://ap-1.aieev.cloud/ac/7/qwen3-5-35b-a3b/v1
• Does not rely on a shared provider runtime fallback endpoint

Install

Once published to ClawHub:

• openclaw plugins install clawhub:@aieev/openclaw-airapi-provider

For a local checkout:

• openclaw plugins install /path/to/openclaw-airapi-provider

Authenticate

Run:

• openclaw models auth login --provider airapi

Or use onboarding:

• openclaw onboard
• choose AirAPI
• enter your AirAPI API key

You can also provide the key with:

• --airapi-api-key <YOUR_AIRAPI_API_KEY>

Environment variable:

• AIRAPI_API_KEY

Model availability

This plugin intentionally exposes only the supported AirAPI models listed above. It does not depend on a shared model-discovery runtime endpoint.

On onboarding, the plugin configures both supported models into OpenClaw's model allowlist and sets:

• primary model: airapi/qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b

Base URL behavior

Provider-level runtime base URL:

• https://ap-1.aieev.cloud/ac/7/qwen3-5-35b-a3b/v1

Per-model runtime base URLs:

• qwen/qwen3.5-9b -> https://ap-1.aieev.cloud/ac/7/qwen3-5-9b/v1
• qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b -> https://ap-1.aieev.cloud/ac/7/qwen3-5-35b-a3b/v1

Usage

Example model refs:

• airapi/qwen/qwen3.5-9b
• airapi/qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b

Check configured model state:

• openclaw models status --plain
• openclaw models list --all --provider airapi --plain

Troubleshooting

• AirAPI does not appear in onboarding

  • restart OpenClaw after installing the plugin
  • check: openclaw plugins inspect openclaw-airapi-provider

• Only one AirAPI model appears in /models

  • reinstall a version that includes onboarding preset support for both models
  • rerun onboarding so both models are written into agents.defaults.models

• API key prompt works but inference returns model not found

  • verify you selected one of the supported model refs listed above
  • verify the installed plugin version is current

• Model pricing or config not updating after a plugin update

  • re-onboarding does not overwrite existing model definitions in the config
  • remove the airapi section from models.providers in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
  • uninstall and reinstall the plugin, then re-onboard:

    openclaw plugins uninstall openclaw-airapi-provider
    openclaw plugins install clawhub:@aieev/openclaw-airapi-provider
    openclaw onboard
