Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00989 | $0.00989 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00495 | $0.00495 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00198 | $0.00198 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00099 | $0.00099 |
Grade A, and why
openclaw-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
This is a copy
89% identical to openclaw-mcp CLAUDE.md — 6 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

OpenClaw MCP Server
Project Overview
OpenClaw MCP (Model Context Protocol) server provides a bridge between Claude (Desktop & Claude.ai) and the OpenClaw AI assistant. It implements the MCP specification to expose OpenClaw capabilities as tools that Claude can invoke.
Security Policy (CRITICAL)
This is a security-critical MCP server. Follow these rules:
Docker-First Deployment (MANDATORY)
- Users MUST run this server via Docker in production
- Never run directly on bare metal in production environments
- Docker provides: process isolation, network segmentation, resource limits, reproducible builds
- Use the provided
docker-compose.ymlfor the complete stack
Authentication
- OAuth 2.1 MUST be enabled in production (
AUTH_ENABLED=true) - Set
MCP_CLIENT_IDandMCP_CLIENT_SECRETenv vars - Generate secrets with:
openssl rand -hex 32 - Never commit secrets to the repository
- Uses MCP SDK's built-in OAuth server (
mcpAuthRouter+requireBearerAuth)
Input Validation
- All MCP tool inputs MUST be validated before processing
- Validate string lengths, types, and formats
- Never pass unsanitized input to system calls or APIs
Error Handling
- Never expose stack traces, internal paths, or credentials in error responses
- Log errors server-side, return generic messages to clients
Architecture
Claude Desktop/Claude.ai
↕ (MCP Protocol - stdio or SSE)
OpenClaw MCP Server (this project)
↕ (OpenAI-compatible REST API: POST /v1/chat/completions)
OpenClaw Gateway (http://localhost:18789)
Gateway API
The OpenClaw gateway exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint at POST /v1/chat/completions.
Authentication uses a Bearer token (OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN).
Transports
- stdio - For local Claude Desktop integration (default)
- SSE - For remote Claude.ai integration (requires OAuth + HTTPS)
Tools
| Tool | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| openclaw_chat | sync | Send message to OpenClaw |
| openclaw_status | sync | Health check |
| openclaw_chat_async | async | Queue message, get task_id |
| openclaw_task_status | async | Check task progress |
| openclaw_task_list | async | List all tasks |
| openclaw_task_cancel | async | Cancel pending task |
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
