ClawCap

ClawCap — Spending Cap for OpenClaw

Stop runaway API bills. ClawCap enforces hard spending caps across every model your agents use — Claude, GPT, Gemini, and more — under a single proxy URL.

What It Does

• Hard daily & monthly caps — your agents stop when you hit your limit, not when your wallet is empty
• All models, one cap — Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, and more tracked together
• Heartbeat detection — catches agents stuck in polling loops burning tokens
• Loop detection — stops agents repeating the same failed request
• Kill switch — stop any agent instantly via Telegram or API
• Real-time tracking — see exactly what you're spending per model

Setup (2 minutes)

1. Get Your Token

Sign up at clawcap.co and grab your proxy token. Free tier works instantly — no credit card needed.

Set it as an environment variable:

bash

export CLAWCAP_TOKEN="cc_live_your_token_here"

2. Run Setup

The setup script automatically patches your OpenClaw config to route all providers through ClawCap:

bash

node skills/clawcap/scripts/setup.js

This will:

• Read your ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
• Point every provider's baseUrl to your ClawCap proxy URL
• Back up your original config to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json.backup

3. Done — You're Protected

Start OpenClaw normally. All requests now flow through ClawCap and your spending caps are enforced automatically.

Check your spend anytime:

bash

curl https://clawcap.co/proxy/$CLAWCAP_TOKEN/status

Manual Setup

If you prefer to configure manually, set every provider's baseUrl in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json to:

text

https://clawcap.co/proxy/YOUR_TOKEN

Your API keys stay the same — ClawCap only reads them to forward requests, never stores them.

Troubleshooting

Agent not routing through ClawCap: Check that baseUrl in your openclaw.json points to https://clawcap.co/proxy/cc_live_... — not the original API URL.

429 errors: You've hit your spending cap. Check /status to see current spend, or upgrade your plan for higher limits.

Token not working: Make sure you're using the full cc_live_... token from your setup page, not just the email.
