What are OpenClaw setup files?

OpenClaw uses a set of configuration files (SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, AGENTS.md, USER.md, TOOLS.md, MEMORY.md, and openclaw.json) to define your AI agent's personality, behavior, capabilities, and operational rules. These files take weeks or months to fine-tune. Starter kits give you a battle-tested starting point.

Is it free to download and share?

Many kits are free, and sellers can now publish paid premium kits too. The marketplace supports both community sharing and monetized starter kits.

How do I install a starter kit?

Download the files, copy them to your ~/.openclaw/ directory (or the workspace your agent uses), run openclaw doctor to validate, then start your agent. Each kit includes specific installation instructions.

Can I modify a downloaded starter kit?

Absolutely. Starter kits are meant as a starting point. Customize the files to match your specific needs, tone of voice, and use case. The kit saves you weeks of initial setup.

What should I include when sharing my setup?

At minimum, include your SOUL.md and AGENTS.md files with a clear description of the use case. The more complete your kit (including IDENTITY.md, USER.md, TOOLS.md, and openclaw.json), the more useful it is. Never include actual API keys or secrets.

How do payments work?

Contributors can set prices for premium kits. Checkout is handled through Stripe, and payouts are routed automatically to the seller after the platform fee is split during payment.
