@nmbrai/openclaw

Beta. This plugin is new and has been tested against the framework's SDK and a real nmbr server, but not yet by many people inside the framework itself. If something breaks, please tell us at support@nmbr.ai (include the version and the error) — fixes ship fast.

Give your OpenClaw agent a number. This channel plugin connects OpenClaw to nmbr: your agent gets an 800-xxx-xxx nmbr, and you talk to it from the nmbr app on your phone — replies, typing indicators, and fail-closed approvals, with no public URL and no bot token from a big platform.

Add nmbr to OpenClaw in 2 minutes

1. In the nmbr app: Agents → Yours → Create an agent. Copy the agent token (shown once).
2. Install and log in:

   openclaw plugins install npm:@nmbrai/openclaw
   openclaw channels login --channel nmbr      # paste the token
   openclaw gateway restart
   

3. Open the chat with your agent in nmbr and say hi.

That's it. The plugin long-polls nmbr's Agent API from wherever OpenClaw runs (a Mac mini behind NAT, a laptop, a VPS) — nothing has to be reachable from the internet.

What you get

• Two-way chat — messages from nmbr become OpenClaw turns; replies go back to the same 1:1 (voice notes arrive as their transcript, a moment after the note (the plugin waits for it); images/documents as tagged text in v0.1).
• Typing indicators while the agent is working.
• Approvals, fail-closed — OpenClaw's exec/plugin approval prompts are delivered into the nmbr chat; answer with /approve <id> allow-once (or deny). Only an authorized sender in that chat can approve.
• Who can talk to the agent — channels.nmbr.dmPolicy: pairing (default: unknown senders get a pairing code you approve with openclaw pairing approve nmbr <code>), allowlist (only channels.nmbr.allowFrom), or open. nmbr itself already restricts senders to people who added your agent as a contact.

Config

~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  channels: {
    nmbr: {
      token: "agent:…",          // set by `openclaw channels login --channel nmbr`
      allowFrom: ["123-456-789"],// your own nmbr
      dmPolicy: "pairing",       // pairing | allowlist | open
      // baseUrl: "https://nmbr.ai/api"
    },
  },
}

Environment: NMBR_AGENT_TOKEN is offered during login.

Roadmap

• v0.2: native approval cards — OpenClaw approval prompts become nmbr approval cards (Approve / Edit / Reject on the phone) via the Agent API's action proposals.
• Media in and out.

Built on @nmbrai/sdk. Requires OpenClaw ≥ 2026.7.1, Node ≥ 22.22.

About this repository

This is the distribution mirror for the nmbr OpenClaw plugin, published to ClawHub as @nmbrai/openclaw. Its contents are the published npm tarball (prebuilt dist/, src/, manifests) — the source of truth and build tooling live in the nmbr monorepo, so npm run build will not work from this checkout. Issues: support@nmbr.ai.
