CodeClawed helps you move your existing OpenClaw multi-agent systems over to the Claude Code environment. Many users run complex workflows using OpenClaw and want to transition their setup to take advantage of Claude Code. This tool automates the core parts of that transition. You do not need experience with code to use this application. It converts your existing agent logic into the format required by Claude Code.

This file contains everything you need to run the migration tool on Windows.
After you download the file, follow these steps to prepare your system:
- Locate the file you saved in your Downloads folder.

The application creates a shortcut on your desktop. You can open CodeClawed from there whenever you need to update your agents.
The application interface allows you to move your agents in a few simple steps. You do not need to write scripts or interact with a command prompt.
- Open CodeClawed from your desktop.
- Click the folder icon to select the directory where your OpenClaw agents currently reside.
- Review the list of agents that the software identifies in the main window.
- Choose the specific agents you want to migrate.
- Click the "Start Migration" button.
- Wait for the progress bar to reach completion.
The app will save the new files in a folder named "ClaudeCodeReady" within your chosen directory. You can then import these files into your Claude Code environment.
If you encounter errors, check these common solutions:
The app will not launch. If the app fails to start, restart your computer and try again. Ensure no other instances of the program are running in the background.
The migration stops halfway. This often happens if the source files are in use by another program. Close any other software that uses your OpenClaw assets and restart the migration process.
The app cannot find my agents. Double-check that you selected the root folder of your OpenClaw installation. If the agents sit in subfolders, the app will find them automatically, but ensure those folders have read permissions.
Antivirus alerts. Some security software may flag new programs by default. This is normal behavior for new applications. Ensure you downloaded the file from the official link provided here.
- Automated detection of OpenClaw agent configurations.
- Bulk migration support for multiple agents at once.
- Format conversion that aligns with Claude Code specifications.
- Error logging to help you track skipped files.
- Clean interface designed for non-technical users.
- Automatic updates when new migration paths become available.
CodeClawed works locally on your computer. Your agent code and configuration files stay on your hard drive. The application does not send your data to external servers. It performs all transformations locally to ensure your intellectual property remains private.
Do I need to uninstall OpenClaw? No. CodeClawed creates new files. The original OpenClaw setup remains untouched. You can keep both if you prefer.
Does this work on Mac or Linux? This version is for Windows only. Future updates might include other operating systems.
Will this break my existing agents? The migration process creates copies of your work. Your original files stay exactly as they are. If you dislike the new format, you can simply delete the new files and remain on OpenClaw.
How do I update the software? The software checks for updates every time you open it. If an update exists, it prompts you to download the newest version, which installs over the old version.
Is there a limit to the number of agents? There is no set limit. You can migrate as many agents as your computer memory allows. If you have hundreds of agents, the migration might take extra time.
