description

Configure OpenClaw (including historical Moltbot/Clawdbot paths) to use Alibaba Cloud Model Studio through a strict interactive flow. The first required step is asking whether the user can run terminal commands now; use that answer to choose env-var mode (preferred) or inline mode before collecting site/key details. Use this skill when a user asks to add, switch, or repair Alibaba Cloud/Qwen provider configuration in OpenClaw.

Alibaba Cloud Model Setup

Overview

Use this skill to configure Alibaba Cloud as an OpenClaw model provider with minimal manual editing. Prefer the bundled script for deterministic updates and safe backups.

Workflow

1. Confirm OpenClaw config location.
2. Run the interactive script to collect:

• First and mandatory: whether user can run terminal commands now (decides env mode vs inline mode)
• In env mode, show 2 commands for user to run (export + append to ~/.bashrc), then wait for confirmation and verify
• Retry env detection up to 2 times; if still not detected, ask whether to fallback to inline key
• Site choice (Beijing/中国站/CN, Singapore/国际站/INTL, or Virginia/美国站/US)
• Access Key (only required if inline mode, or if user chooses inline fallback)
• Validate API key against selected site before any config write
• In systemd deployments, ensure service environment is ready before write
• Default preset models (qwen-max, qwen-flash, qwen3-coder-plus)
• Whether to add extra models from live API list
• Whether to change primary model from default
• Whether to set this model as default

3. Validate the resulting JSON and report the final provider/model path.
