Openclaw Cli Bridge Elvatis

Bridge local AI CLIs + web browser sessions (Grok, Gemini, Claude.ai, ChatGPT) into OpenClaw as model providers. Includes /cli-* slash commands for instant model switching and persistent browser profiles for all 4 web providers.

OpenClaw CLI Bridge

Bridges locally installed AI CLIs + web browser sessions into OpenClaw as model providers. Four phases:

Phase 1 — Codex Auth Bridge

Registers openai-codex provider from existing ~/.codex/auth.json tokens. No re-login.

Phase 2 — Request Proxy

Local OpenAI-compatible HTTP proxy (127.0.0.1:31337) routes vllm model calls to CLI subprocesses:

• vllm/cli-gemini/gemini-2.5-pro / gemini-2.5-flash / gemini-3-pro
• vllm/cli-claude/claude-sonnet-4-6 / claude-opus-4-6 / claude-haiku-4-5
• vllm/local-bitnet/bitnet-2b → BitNet llama-server on 127.0.0.1:8082

Prompts go via stdin/tmpfile — never as CLI args (prevents E2BIG for long sessions).

Phase 3 — Slash Commands

Six instant model-switch commands (authorized senders only):

Command	Model
/cli-sonnet	vllm/cli-claude/claude-sonnet-4-6
/cli-opus	vllm/cli-claude/claude-opus-4-6
/cli-haiku	vllm/cli-claude/claude-haiku-4-5
/cli-gemini	vllm/cli-gemini/gemini-2.5-pro
/cli-gemini-flash	vllm/cli-gemini/gemini-2.5-flash
/cli-gemini3	vllm/cli-gemini/gemini-3-pro
/cli-codex	openai-codex/gpt-5.3-codex
/cli-codex54	openai-codex/gpt-5.4
/cli-bitnet	vllm/local-bitnet/bitnet-2b
/cli-back	Restore previous model
/cli-test [model]	Health check (no model switch)

Each command uses staged switching by default (apply with /cli-apply).

Phase 4 — Web Browser Providers

Persistent Chromium profiles for 4 web providers (no API key needed):

• Grok (web-grok/*): /grok-login, /grok-status, /grok-logout
• Gemini (web-gemini/*): /gemini-login, /gemini-status, /gemini-logout
• Claude.ai (web-claude/*): /claude-login, /claude-status, /claude-logout
• ChatGPT (web-chatgpt/*): /chatgpt-login, /chatgpt-status, /chatgpt-logout

Sessions survive gateway restarts. /bridge-status shows all 4 at a glance.

On gateway restart, if any session has expired, a WhatsApp alert is sent automatically with the exact /xxx-login commands needed — no guessing required.

Browser health dashboard: http://127.0.0.1:31337/status — live overview of all 4 providers, cookie expiry, and model list. Auto-refreshes every 30s.

Setup

1. Enable plugin + restart gateway
2. (Optional) Register Codex auth: openclaw models auth login --provider openai-codex
3. Use /cli-* commands to switch models from any channel
