ClawLayer

The Missing Layer Between OpenClaw and Production

Transform basic OpenClaw AI agents into enterprise-ready systems with personality, memory, and performance optimization.

Overview

ClawLayer is an enhancement layer designed specifically for OpenClaw AI Agents. It sits between your application and OpenClaw, providing enterprise-grade capabilities that transform basic agents into production-ready, scalable autonomous systems.

Think of ClawLayer as middleware infrastructure that supercharges OpenClaw agents with the features you need for real-world deployment—without the complexity of building them yourself.

Key Features

🧠 Personality & Character Engine

Deep customization beyond basic prompts. Create unique, consistent personalities with behavioral traits, emotions, and communication styles that persist across all interactions.

💾 Long-Term Memory & State Management

Persistent conversation history and context-aware memory retrieval. Your agents remember past interactions, learn user preferences, and build meaningful relationships over time.

⚡ Performance Optimization Layer

Intelligent caching, request batching, and edge deployment reduce latency by 50%+ and cut API costs by 40-60%. Sub-100ms added latency at scale.

🧩 Advanced Agent Customization

Plugin marketplace, custom tool integration, multi-model orchestration (GPT-4, Claude, Llama), and A/B testing for agent behaviors.

📊 Analytics & Observability

Real-time performance monitoring, conversation quality metrics, cost tracking, user engagement analytics, and comprehensive debugging infrastructure.

👥 Multi-Agent Coordination

Agent-to-agent communication protocols, workflow orchestration, role-based hierarchies, shared knowledge pools, and collaborative task execution.

🔒 Security & Compliance

Rate limiting, abuse prevention, PII detection and redaction, audit logs, compliance reporting, access control, and data encryption.

Quick Start

Installation

npm install @clawlayer/sdk

Basic Usage

import { ClawLayer } from '@clawlayer/sdk';
import { OpenClaw } from 'openclaw';

// Initialize ClawLayer with your OpenClaw agent
const agent = new OpenClaw({
  model: 'claude-3-sonnet',
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
});

const enhancedAgent = new ClawLayer(agent, {
  personality: {
    name: 'Alex',
    traits: ['helpful', 'friendly', 'professional'],
    voice: 'casual yet knowledgeable'
  },
  memory: {
    enabled: true,
    provider: 'pinecone',
    apiKey: process.env.PINECONE_API_KEY
  },
  cache: {
    enabled: true,
    ttl: 3600
  }
});

// Use your enhanced agent
const response = await enhancedAgent.chat({
  userId: 'user-123',
  message: 'Hello! Remember our conversation from yesterday?'
});

console.log(response.text);
// ClawLayer automatically retrieves relevant conversation history
// and maintains the agent's personality across interactions

Configuration

ClawLayer supports extensive configuration options:

const config = {
  // Personality configuration
  personality: {
    name: string;
    traits: string[];
    voice: string;
    emotionalRange: 'subtle' | 'moderate' | 'expressive';
  },

  // Memory configuration
  memory: {
    enabled: boolean;
    provider: 'pinecone' | 'weaviate' | 'qdrant';
    maxContext: number;
    similarityThreshold: number;
  },

  // Performance optimization
  cache: {
    enabled: boolean;
    provider: 'redis' | 'memory';
    ttl: number;
  },

  // Analytics
  analytics: {
    enabled: boolean;
    trackMetrics: boolean;
    customEvents: string[];
  }
};
