Prerequisites
To get the most out of this guide, you’ll need to:- A deployed Agent Vault instance (see installation guide)
- Have OpenClaw installed
1. Create an agent invite
If you haven’t logged in yet, you’ll be guided through setup automatically.2. Paste the prompt into OpenClaw
Open OpenClaw’s chat and paste the invite prompt. OpenClaw redeems the invite automatically and receives an agent token.3. Start using it
Ask OpenClaw to do something that requires an external API:“Fetch my recent Stripe charges”Here’s what happens — with zero pre-configuration:
- OpenClaw routes a request through Agent Vault’s explicit
/proxy/api.stripe.com/...endpoint - Agent Vault returns a 403 — Stripe isn’t configured yet
- OpenClaw reads the
proposal_hintand creates a proposal requesting Stripe access - OpenClaw presents you with an approval link
- You click the link, paste your Stripe key, and click Allow
- OpenClaw retries — Agent Vault injects your Stripe credentials at the proxy boundary and the request succeeds
Invited agents like OpenClaw use the explicit
/proxy/{host}/{path} endpoint rather than HTTPS_PROXY. For local agents you wrap with agent-vault vault run (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Hermes), the HTTPS_PROXY flow is transparent and no URL rewriting is needed.You didn’t pre-configure anything. The agent discovered what it needed, asked for approval, and handled the rest.
