AgentBox Operating Instructions

You are running on a dedicated AgentBox agent - a single-tenant cloud instance with OpenClaw gateway, HTTPS, web terminal, and a Solana wallet for x402 micropayments.

Services

ServicePortManaged by
OpenClaw gateway:18789 (loopback)
openclaw gateway restart
Caddy (HTTPS reverse proxy):443
sudo systemctl restart caddy
ttyd (web terminal):7681 (loopback)
sudo systemctl restart ttyd
Caddy routes HTTPS traffic to the gateway and terminal. Do NOT modify Caddy or systemd configs directly.

x402 payment plugin

The
openclaw-x402
plugin patches
globalThis.fetch
to handle HTTP 402 Payment Required responses automatically. When an LLM inference call returns 402, the plugin signs a USDC payment on Solana and retries. This is transparent - you don't need to do anything special.
The wallet at
~/.openclaw/agentbox/wallet-sol.json
must have USDC balance for payments to work. Check balance with
/x_wallet
or:
bash
spl-token balance --owner $(solana address) EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v

Commands and tools

Slash commands:
  • /x_wallet
    - wallet dashboard with balance, token holdings, recent transactions
  • /x_wallet send <amount|all> <address>
    - send USDC to a Solana address
  • /x_wallet history [page]
    - paginated transaction history
  • /x_status
    - system overview (version, model, pricing, wallet summary)
  • /x_update
    - update plugin and skills, restart gateway
Agent tools:
  • x_balance
    - check wallet SOL and USDC balances
  • x_swap
    - swap any Solana token for another (SOL, USDC, meme tokens, any SPL token)
  • x_launch_token
    - launch a new token on pump.fun
  • x_token_info
    - look up token price, market cap, volume, liquidity
  • x_payment
    - call any x402-enabled paid API
Swaps use Jupiter aggregator for best routing, with automatic fallback to PumpPortal for bonding curve tokens. Amount is in input token units, slippage in basis points (default: 250 = 2.5%).

Default model provider

This instance comes with a preconfigured LLM provider (blockrun) that uses x402 for payments. To use a different provider like OpenRouter, see the OpenRouter Setup section below.

OpenRouter Setup

To configure OpenRouter as LLM provider (access to Claude, GPT, Gemini, and more via a single API key):
  1. Get an API key: Sign up at https://openrouter.ai, go to https://openrouter.ai/keys, create a key (starts with
    sk-or-
    )
  2. Configure OpenClaw:
bash
jq --arg key "sk-or-USER_KEY_HERE" \
   --arg model "openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5" \
   '.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY = $key | .agents.defaults.model.primary = $model' \
   ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json > /tmp/openclaw-update.json \
   && mv /tmp/openclaw-update.json ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
  1. Restart gateway:
    openclaw gateway restart
Popular models:
openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5
,
openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-6
,
openrouter/openai/gpt-4o
,
openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-pro
. Full list at https://openrouter.ai/models.
Switch model later (without re-entering API key):
bash
jq --arg model "openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-6" \
   '.agents.defaults.model.primary = $model' \
   ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json > /tmp/openclaw-update.json \
   && mv /tmp/openclaw-update.json ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
openclaw gateway restart

Restarting the gateway

After any config change to
~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
:
bash
openclaw gateway restart
Check status:
bash
openclaw status

Updating skills

To get the latest AgentBox skills:
bash
npx skills add -g cascade-protocol/agentbox
Skills are installed to
~/.openclaw/skills/
(OpenClaw's managed skills path, auto-discovered). Changes take effect on the next new session.

Troubleshooting

  • Gateway won't start: Check
    openclaw status
    and gateway logs at
    ~/.openclaw/logs/
  • x402 payments failing: Check USDC balance (see above). Wallet needs USDC on Solana mainnet.
  • Config changes not taking effect: Run
    openclaw gateway restart
    after editing
    ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
  • Skills not showing: Check
    ls ~/.openclaw/skills/
    . Run
    npx skills add -g cascade-protocol/agentbox
    to refresh.
  • "Invalid API key" (OpenRouter): Verify the key starts with
    sk-or-
    and has credit on https://openrouter.ai/credits
  • Model not responding (OpenRouter): Check model availability on https://openrouter.ai/models
  • Config broken after edit: Check JSON syntax with
    cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json | jq .

Important rules

  • Always use
    openclaw gateway restart
    to restart the gateway. Never use systemctl directly for the gateway.
  • When editing
    ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
    , read the current file first, modify it, write it back. Don't write partial configs.
  • The wallet keys are at
    ~/.openclaw/agentbox/
    (wallet-sol.json, wallet-evm.key, mnemonic). Never share them or display them to users.
