The Problem

Setting up OpenClaw from scratch is painful:

• Config errors — One wrong indent in YAML/JSON and nothing works
• ECONNREFUSED — The #1 error. localhost vs 127.0.0.1, IPv6 binding, port conflicts
• Windows path hell — C:\Users\you breaks JSON. Every. Single. Time.
• No idea what it costs — Running GPT-4.1 24/7 can burn $500+/mo without you knowing
• 7400+ skills, zero discoverability — How do you find the right plugin?

ClawKit fixes all of this in your browser. No install. No sign-up. No data leaves your machine.

Common Issues This Toolkit Solves

Fix: OpenClaw ECONNREFUSED / Connection Refused

The most common OpenClaw error. Usually caused by:

1. Agent not running (openclaw start first)
2. Node.js binding to IPv6 — use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost
3. Port 3000 already in use — check with lsof -i :3000 or netstat -ano | findstr :3000

Quick fix: Run npx clawkit-doctor@latest to auto-diagnose.

Fix: JSON Parse Error / Invalid Config File

Common causes:

• Trailing commas in JSON (not allowed!)
• Unescaped Windows paths: C:\Users → must be C:\\Users
• Copy-paste artifacts from documentation

Quick fix: Use the Config Wizard to generate a valid config.

Fix: Windows Backslash Path Issues in OpenClaw

Windows uses \ for paths, but JSON treats \ as escape character.

// WRONG
{ "dataPath": "C:\Users\you\.openclaw\data" }

// CORRECT
{ "dataPath": "C:\\Users\\you\\.openclaw\\data" }

Quick fix: The Config Wizard auto-detects Windows and escapes paths for you.

How to Use DeepSeek with OpenClaw (90% Cost Savings)

DeepSeek V3.2 is fully compatible with the OpenAI API format:

{
  "llm": {
    "provider": "deepseek",
    "model": "deepseek-chat",
    "baseUrl": "https://api.deepseek.com/v1",
    "apiKey": "sk-..."
  }
}

Use the Config Wizard DeepSeek preset for one-click setup.

How to Use Ollama (Local LLM) with OpenClaw

Run your agent 100% offline with Ollama:

{
  "llm": {
    "provider": "ollama",
    "model": "llama3",
    "baseUrl": "http://localhost:11434/v1",
    "apiKey": "ollama"
  }
}

No API costs. Full data privacy. Use the Config Wizard Ollama preset.
