Connect
- Install OpenClaw if needed.
- Download a compatible model in Magnitude.
- Open Connections → OpenClaw and click Connect.
- Select a downloaded model on the connected card, then click the command to copy it.
- Paste it into your terminal from your project folder. On Windows, use PowerShell.
Run OpenClaw
After connecting in Magnitude, start OpenClaw with:/model command inside OpenClaw, not in your shell.
Replace MODEL_ID with the exact model ID, such as gemma-4-e2b-it-qat:gguf:q4, rather than its display name. The command shown in Connections already includes the correct ID for your selected model, so you can copy it without editing. Keep Magnitude running; it loads the model when the agent requests it.
Configuration
Connect writes~/.openclaw/openclaw.json. Location overrides: OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH and OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR.
