🔑 Saves API key to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
🤖 Adds 10 OpenClaw models: 7 free — OpenClaw, Kimi K2.5, DeepSeek, DeepSeek Pro, GLM, Gemini + Search, Claude Haiku — plus 3 paid: Kimi K2.6, Claude Large, Gemini Large
🔍 Also enables Perplexity Fast for the web_search tool via pollinations.ai (preserves existing if already set)

Paste this into your agent chat — it will configure Pollinations as a provider:

Add pollinations.ai as a model provider. Run this command:

        curl -fsSL
        https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pollinations/pollinations/main/apps/openclaw/setup-pollinations.sh
        | bash -s -- YOUR_API_KEY

The script will restart the gateway automatically. After that, switch to the new provider with: /model pollinations/kimi

Which model should I use?

Kimi K2.5 default

pollinations/kimi

Best open model for agentic coding. 256K context, vision, tools, reasoning. 77% SWE-Bench.

Kimi K2.6 paid

pollinations/kimi-k2.6

Moonshot's flagship agentic model. 262K context, vision, reasoning. Strongest open-weight option for long, tool-heavy sessions.

Gemini + Search web search

pollinations/gemini-search

Google Gemini with always-on web search. Vision support. Look up docs, APIs, recent changes.

DeepSeek V3.2 reasoning

pollinations/deepseek

Strong reasoning & tool calling. Good alternative to Kimi for hard problems.

GLM 5

pollinations/glm

Z.ai — coding, reasoning, agentic workflows. Competitive with Kimi.

Claude Haiku 4.5

pollinations/claude-fast

Anthropic — fast with good reasoning. Claude quality, lower cost.

Claude Opus 4.6 paid

pollinations/claude-large

Anthropic's most capable model. Vision, tools, deep reasoning.

Gemini 3 Pro paid

pollinations/gemini-large

Google's flagship with vision, audio & video understanding.

Switch models anytime: /model pollinations/kimi

Image, video & audio

Community-built pollinations.ai skill by @isaacgounton — gives your agent multi-modal generation.

/skill install isaacgounton/pollinations

This adds image generation (Flux, GPT Image, Imagen 4), video (Veo 3.1, Seedance), text-to-speech (13 voices), and vision analysis to your agent. Separate from the LLM provider setup above.
