add-openagents

An integration that adds OpenAgents Workspace as a communication channel for a NanoClaw agent group. NanoClaw is a system for running groups of AI agents, while OpenAgents Workspace is the place people use to talk to them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect an OpenAgents Workspace to a NanoClaw group, install the channel bridge, and route messages through a local Unix socket.
Why use it?
It lets a Workspace communicate with an agent group through NanoClaw's normal message routing without giving NanoClaw direct database access or storing an OpenAgents token there.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

add-openagents scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Add OpenAgents Channel

Adds a native NanoClaw channel (channel_type: openagents) that lets an OpenAgents Workspace talk to one of your Agent Groups. It plumbs into the normal router/delivery path like the built-in cli channel — no database access, no host special-casing. The channel owns a local Unix socket at data/openagents/bridge.sock; the OpenAgents agent-connector (@openagents-org/agent-launcher, adapter nanoclaw) is the client and does all Workspace IO. No OpenAgents token is stored in NanoClaw.

Install

Pre-flight (idempotent)

Skip to Wire an Agent Group if all of these are already in place:

  • src/channels/openagents.ts exists
  • src/channels/index.ts contains import './openagents.js';

Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.

1. Copy the channel module

The channel source ships with the OpenAgents agent-launcher. Copy it from the installed package (preferred), or fetch it from the OpenAgents repo:

# From the installed launcher package (path may vary by install method):
cp "$(node -e "process.stdout.write(require.resolve('@openagents-org/agent-launcher/nanoclaw-channel/openagents.ts'))" 2>/dev/null \
   || echo "$HOME/.openagents/runtimes/nanoclaw/node_modules/@openagents-org/agent-launcher/nanoclaw-channel/openagents.ts")" \
  src/channels/openagents.ts

# …or fetch from source:
# curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openagents-org/openagents/develop/packages/agent-connector/nanoclaw-channel/openagents.ts \
#   -o src/channels/openagents.ts

The OpenAgents Launcher can also install this for you automatically — it calls the same copy + barrel-patch. This skill is the manual / auditable path.

2. Append the self-registration import

Append to src/channels/index.ts (skip if already present):

// openagents channel (OpenAgents Workspace bridge)
import './openagents.js';

3. Restart the NanoClaw host

The channel self-registers on startup. Restart the host (./nanoclaw.sh restart, or your launchd/systemd unit) so it loads. After restart you should see openagents channel listening in the logs and a data/openagents/bridge.sock file.

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.

add-openagents is a skill published in the GitHub repository openagents-org/openagents (4,029 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 1,372 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
