Public OpenClaw model reference: aliases, provider notes, and copy-paste config blocks without secrets.

Scope

This repository documents a public OpenClaw setup. It intentionally excludes API keys, OAuth exports, cookies, and host-specific private values.

Current Aliases

Alias	Full ID	Use Case
kimi	kimi-coding/kimi-code	Main Kimi coding/thinking model
sonnet	anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6	General reasoning
opus	anthropic/claude-opus-4-6	Deep Anthropic tasks
mmfast	minimax/MiniMax-M2.5-highspeed	Fast replies
Minimax	minimax/MiniMax-M2.5	Full MiniMax
codex	openai-codex/gpt-5.3-codex	Codex coding model
gpti	openai-codex/gpt-5.3-chat-latest	GPT-5.3 Instant
gptm	openai-codex/gpt-5.4-mini	GPT-5.4 Mini
gptt	openai-codex/gpt-5.5	GPT-5.5 Thinking

OpenAI Note

codex, gpti, gptm, and gptt are documented here for the OAuth-backed openai-codex flow in OpenClaw, using ChatGPT subscription access rather than pay-as-you-go API billing.

Kimi Setup Summary

For current OpenClaw builds, the public working Kimi setup is:

• provider: kimi-coding
• model ref: kimi-coding/kimi-code
• wire API: anthropic-messages
• wire endpoint: POST https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1/messages

OpenClaw treats Moonshot and Kimi Coding as different providers:

• use kimi-coding/kimi-code for Kimi Coding
• use moonshot/kimi-k2.5 (or another moonshot/... model) for Moonshot API
• do not mix them as kimi/...

Do not configure Kimi Coding in OpenClaw as:

• api: "openai-completions"
• model id kimi-for-coding
• POST https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1/chat/completions

That older shape can look plausible, but in live testing it commonly degrades into:

• HTTP 404 / model_not_found
• selected model unavailable
• OpenClaw fallback to another provider even though the Kimi key itself is valid

Recommended alias setup:

{
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "models": {
        "kimi-coding/kimi-code": { "alias": "kimi" },
        "openai-codex/gpt-5.5": { "alias": "gptt" }
      }
    }
  }
}

Then you can switch with:

/model kimi
/model gptt

Use SKILL.md as the canonical reference for:

• working provider blocks
• broken anti-pattern examples
• migration from older Kimi configs
• troubleshooting probes and expected error signatures

Files

• SKILL.md contains the actual public skill/reference text.
• .gitignore keeps local secret material out of git.

Usage

Copy the relevant JSON blocks from SKILL.md into ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json, then fill placeholders locally.
