How To Use Kilocode Model On Openclaw

Accessing specialized code models through a unified gateway simplifies your AI infrastructure. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Integrating Kilocode matters because it aggregates multiple code-optimized models under one API, reducing integration complexity.
2. A frequent pain point involves obtaining and configuring API keys correctly within OpenClaw’s environment.
3. By following this guide, you will successfully authenticate with Kilocode and configure it as your primary model provider.

Kilocode provides a gateway to code-specific AI models designed for programming tasks. Setting it up in OpenClaw requires obtaining an API key from their platform first.

Head to app.kilo.ai and sign in or create an account. Navigate to the API Keys section and generate a new key for your integration.

Once you have your key, add it to your openclaw.json configuration:

{
"env": { "KILOCODE_API_KEY": "" },
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"model": { "primary": "kilocode/kilo/auto" }
}
}
}

Save the configuration and restart your OpenClaw gateway. Your requests will now route through Kilocode’s model aggregation layer.
