Canonical: https://robinreach.com/ai/integrations/openclaw
App: OpenClaw, by OpenClaw (open source) (https://openclaw.ai)
Where you use it: Chat apps and desktop app
Sign in: API key. Setup time: 2 minutes. RobinReach plan: Bloom, Thrive and Scale.

## What you need

In OpenClaw:
- OpenClaw running on your computer or server, connected to a chat app.
- Your API key from the Integrations page in RobinReach.

In RobinReach:
- The Bloom, Thrive and Scale plan (Bloom, $24 a month).
- An API key from the Integrations page (the account key reaches every brand; a brand key reaches one).

## Setup

### 1. Run this command

Replace **YOUR_API_KEY** with the key from the Integrations page in RobinReach.

```
openclaw mcp add robinreach --url "https://robinreach.com/mcp/v1/messages?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY" --transport streamable-http
```

### 2. Check the connection

Saving a server does not prove it is reachable, so ask OpenClaw to connect. It lists RobinReach's tools when it works. Restart a running Gateway if it does not pick the server up.

```
openclaw mcp probe robinreach
```

### 3. Message your assistant

From WhatsApp, Telegram or wherever your OpenClaw lives, ask it to list your RobinReach brands.

Check it works: Message your assistant: "List my RobinReach brands".

## Things to ask OpenClaw

- Make an image for tonight's special and post it to Instagram and Facebook at 7.
- What is going out on our socials tomorrow?
- Any new comments today? Read them to me and suggest replies.
- Move Friday's LinkedIn post to Monday at 9.

## Troubleshooting

**The probe cannot connect.** Check the API key in the URL is current, and that the URL is in quotes so your shell keeps the ? and = characters.

**My assistant does not see the new tools.** A Gateway that was already running may need a restart to load a new server.

**I want my assistant to reach only one brand.** Use that brand's API key from its Integrations page.
