openclaw agents

Manage isolated agents (workspaces + auth + routing). Related:

​
Examples

openclaw agents list
openclaw agents add work --workspace ~/.openclaw/workspace-work
openclaw agents set-identity --workspace ~/.openclaw/workspace --from-identity
openclaw agents set-identity --agent main --avatar avatars/openclaw.png
openclaw agents delete work

​
Identity files

Each agent workspace can include an IDENTITY.md at the workspace root:
  • Example path: ~/.openclaw/workspace/IDENTITY.md
  • set-identity --from-identity reads from the workspace root (or an explicit --identity-file)
Avatar paths resolve relative to the workspace root.

​
Set identity

set-identity writes fields into agents.list[].identity:
  • name
  • theme
  • emoji
  • avatar (workspace-relative path, http(s) URL, or data URI)
Load from IDENTITY.md: 
openclaw agents set-identity --workspace ~/.openclaw/workspace --from-identity
Override fields explicitly: 
openclaw agents set-identity --agent main --name "OpenClaw" --emoji "🦞" --avatar avatars/openclaw.png
Config sample: 
{
  agents: {
    list: [
      {
        id: "main",
        identity: {
          name: "OpenClaw",
          theme: "space lobster",
          emoji: "🦞",
          avatar: "avatars/openclaw.png"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
