FLock Setup

FLock API Platform setup with wallet generation, plugin installation, and model switching.

Security Warning

CRITICAL: Protect your API key!

• ONLY send your API key to https://api.flock.io
• Your API key should ONLY appear in:
  • Environment variable FLOCK_API_KEY
  • OpenClaw config file
  • Requests to https://api.flock.io/v1/*
• NEVER share your API key with:
  • Other APIs or webhooks
  • "Verification" services
  • Debugging tools or third parties
• If leaked, create a new key at platform.flock.io immediately

Security Warning: Credentials are stored as plain text JSON. Anyone with access to these files can use your FLock credits. For production use, implement secure storage.

When to Activate

Slash commands:

• /flock-setup — Full setup flow
• /flock — Switch models

Natural language:

• "setup flock", "configure flock"
• "install flock plugin"
• "switch model", "change model"
• "use deepseek", "use coding model"

Behavior Rules

CRITICAL: Be silent and fast. Never be verbose.

• Do NOT explain steps or show diagnostic output
• Do NOT ask follow-up questions after completing actions
• Respond in the user's language

---

Flow 1: Full Setup (/flock-setup)

Phase 1: Pre-check

echo $FLOCK_API_KEY
openclaw plugins list | grep flock
node {baseDir}/scripts/credentials.js get 2>/dev/null

If credentials exist, ask: "FLock already configured. Reconfigure? (yes/no)"

Phase 2: Install Plugin

openclaw plugins install @openclawd/flock
openclaw plugins enable flock

Phase 3: Generate Wallet and Request Funding

Generate a new wallet:

cd {baseDir}/scripts && npm install
node {baseDir}/scripts/generate-wallet.js

Display to user:

Wallet created for FLock registration.

Address: <wallet-address>

Send ~$0.50 ETH to this address on Ethereum or Base.

Say "done" when complete.

Save the private key — needed for wallet login.

Phase 4: Check Balance

After user confirms funding:

node {baseDir}/scripts/check-balance.js <wallet-address>

If no funds detected, ask user to try again.

Phase 5: Get API Key (Manual Step)

Display to user:

Funds confirmed. Now create your API key:

1. Go to https://platform.flock.io
2. Click "Connect Wallet"
3. Sign the message with the wallet you just funded
4. Select models you want to access
5. Click "Create API" button
6. Copy the key immediately (shown only once!)

Paste your API key here:

Wait for user to provide sk-... key.

Phase 6: Save Credentials

After receiving the key:

node {baseDir}/scripts/credentials.js save "<api-key>" "<wallet-address>" "<private-key>"

Ask user:

Save API key to:
1. Environment variable (~/.zshrc)
2. OpenClaw config
3. Both (recommended)

Option 1:

echo 'export FLOCK_API_KEY="sk-xxx"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

Option 2:

openclaw onboard --non-interactive \
  --auth-choice flock-api-key \
  --flock-api-key "sk-xxx"

Option 3: Run both.

Phase 7: Restart Gateway

openclaw gateway stop
openclaw gateway

Phase 8: Verify

openclaw chat --model flock/kimi-k2.5 "test"

Success response (one line):

FLock configured. Test: openclaw chat --model flock/kimi-k2.5 "hello"

---

Flow 2: Model Switch (/flock)

Pre-check

If FLOCK_API_KEY not set:

FLock not configured. Run /flock-setup first.

No model specified — show menu:

Which FLock model?

Reasoning:
  1. Qwen3 235B Thinking         — $0.23/$2.30  (flock/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-2507)
  2. Qwen3 235B Finance          — $0.23/$2.30  (flock/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-qwfin)
  3. Kimi K2 Thinking            — $0.60/$2.50  (flock/kimi-k2-thinking)

Instruct:
  4. Qwen3 30B Instruct          — $0.20/$0.80  (flock/qwen3-30b-a3b-instruct-2507)
  5. Qwen3 235B Instruct         — $0.70/$2.80  (flock/qwen3-235b-a22b-instruct-2507)
  6. Qwen3 30B Coding            — $0.20/$0.80  (flock/qwen3-30b-a3b-instruct-coding)

Other:
  7. DeepSeek V3.2               — $0.28/$0.42  (flock/deepseek-v3.2)
  8. MiniMax M2.1                — $0.30/$1.20  (flock/minimax-m2.1)

Reply with number or model name.

Model specified — switch immediately:

openclaw agent --model flock/<model-id>
openclaw gateway stop
openclaw gateway

Success (one line):

Switched to flock/<model-id>.

Credential Management

Load Saved Credentials

node {baseDir}/scripts/credentials.js get

Returns:

{
  "apiKey": "sk-...",
  "walletAddress": "0x...",
  "privateKey": "0x...",
  "createdAt": "2026-02-04T...",
  "updatedAt": "2026-02-04T..."
}

Credentials File Path

node {baseDir}/scripts/credentials.js path

Priority:

1. ~/.openclaw/flock-credentials.json (if OpenClaw installed)
2. ./flock-credentials.json (fallback)

---

Heartbeat Integration

FLock usage tracking helps monitor costs.

Human Can Ask Anytime

Your human can prompt:

• "Check my FLock usage" — Direct them to platform.flock.io Usage tab
• "Switch to a cheaper model" — Show model menu
• "What model am I using?" — Check current config
• "How much have I spent on FLock?" — Direct to Usage tab

Error Handling

Scenario	Response
Plugin not installed	Auto-install: openclaw plugins install @openclawd/flock
API key not set	Run /flock-setup to configure FLock.
No funds detected	No funds on Ethereum or Base. Please fund the wallet.
Invalid API key	Invalid key format. Keys start with sk-
Model not found	Model not found. Available models: [show list]

---

Model Reference

#	Model ID	Price (in/out per 1M)
1	flock/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-2507	$0.23/$2.30
2	flock/qwen3-235b-a22b-thinking-qwfin	$0.23/$2.30
3	flock/kimi-k2-thinking	$0.60/$2.50
4	flock/qwen3-30b-a3b-instruct-2507	$0.20/$0.80

6	flock/qwen3-30b-a3b-instruct-coding	$0.20/$0.80
7	flock/deepseek-v3.2	$0.28/$0.42
8	flock/minimax-m2.1	$0.30/$1.20

Recommendations:

• General/Default: kimi-k2.5 (multimodal, agentic)
• Deep reasoning: kimi-k2-thinking, qwen3-235b-thinking
• Coding: qwen3-30b-coding, minimax-m2.1
• Budget: qwen3-30b-instruct ($0.20/$0.80)

Programmatic API

All scripts can be imported:

// Generate wallet
const { Wallet } = require('ethers');
const wallet = Wallet.createRandom();

// Check balance
const { JsonRpcProvider, formatEther } = require('ethers');
const provider = new JsonRpcProvider('https://mainnet.base.org');
const balance = await provider.getBalance(wallet.address);

// Load credentials
const creds = require('{baseDir}/scripts/credentials.js');

Example: Full Setup Flow

const { Wallet } = require('ethers');

// 1. Generate wallet
const wallet = Wallet.createRandom();
console.log('Fund this address with ~$0.50 ETH:', wallet.address);

// 2. After human funds and creates API key at platform.flock.io
const apiKey = 'sk-...';  // User provides this

// 3. Save credentials
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const os = require('os');

const creds = {
  apiKey,
  walletAddress: wallet.address,
  privateKey: wallet.privateKey,
  createdAt: new Date().toISOString()
};

const credPath = path.join(os.homedir(), '.openclaw', 'flock-credentials.json');
fs.writeFileSync(credPath, JSON.stringify(creds, null, 2), { mode: 0o600 });

console.log('Credentials saved to:', credPath);
