Goal: multiple _isolated_ agents (separate workspace + `agentDir` + sessions), plus multiple channel accounts (e.g. two WhatsApps) in one running Gateway. Inbound is routed to an agent via bindings.
Run multiple _isolated_ agents — each with its own workspace, state directory (`agentDir`), and session history — plus multiple channel accounts (e.g. two WhatsApps) in one running Gateway. Inbound messages are routed to the right agent through bindings.
An **agent** here is the full per-persona scope: workspace files, auth profiles, model registry, and session store. `agentDir` is the on-disk state directory that holds this per-agent config at `~/.openclaw/agents/<agentId>/`. A **binding** maps a channel account (e.g. a Slack workspace or a WhatsApp number) to one of those agents.
