Meta setup (auth + muse-spark-1.1 model selection) Meta
You want to use Meta with OpenClaw
You need the MODEL_API_KEY env var or CLI auth choice

The Meta API uses the OpenAI-compatible Responses API (POST /v1/responses) for the muse-spark-1.1 reasoning model. OpenClaw provides Meta as an official external plugin.

Property Value
Provider id meta
Plugin @openclaw/meta-provider
Auth env var MODEL_API_KEY
Onboarding flag --auth-choice meta-api-key
Direct CLI flag --meta-api-key <key>
API Responses API (openai-responses)
Base URL https://api.meta.ai/v1
Default model meta/muse-spark-1.1
Default reasoning high (reasoning.effort)

Getting started

```bash openclaw plugins install @openclaw/meta-provider openclaw gateway restart ```
openclaw onboard --auth-choice meta-api-key
openclaw onboard --non-interactive --accept-risk \
  --auth-choice meta-api-key \
  --meta-api-key "$MODEL_API_KEY"
export MODEL_API_KEY=<key>
</CodeGroup>
```bash openclaw models list --provider meta ```
Lists the static `muse-spark-1.1` catalog entry. If `MODEL_API_KEY` is unresolved,
`openclaw models status --json` reports the missing credential under
`auth.unusableProfiles`.

Non-interactive setup

openclaw onboard --non-interactive --accept-risk \
  --mode local \
  --auth-choice meta-api-key \
  --meta-api-key "$MODEL_API_KEY"

Built-in catalog

Model ref Name Input Reasoning Context window Max output Input / cached input / output per 1M tokens
meta/muse-spark-1.1 Muse Spark 1.1 text, image yes 1,048,576 131,072 $1.25 / $0.15 / $4.25

Capabilities:

  • Text and image input
  • Tool calling and streaming
  • Reasoning effort: minimal, low, medium, high, xhigh (default: high)
  • Stateless encrypted reasoning replay (store: false, include: ["reasoning.encrypted_content"])
`muse-spark-1.1` does not accept `reasoning.effort: "none"`. OpenClaw maps `--thinking off` to `minimal` for this provider.

Manual config

{
  env: { MODEL_API_KEY: "<key>" },
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      model: { primary: "meta/muse-spark-1.1" },
      models: {
        "meta/muse-spark-1.1": { alias: "Muse Spark 1.1" },
      },
    },
  },
}
If the Gateway runs as a daemon (launchd, systemd, Docker), make sure `MODEL_API_KEY` is available to that process — for example in `~/.openclaw/.env` or through `env.shellEnv`. A key exported only in an interactive shell will not help a managed service unless the env is imported separately.

Smoke test

export MODEL_API_KEY=<key>
pnpm test:live -- extensions/meta/meta.live.test.ts

Live tests use muse-spark-1.1 against POST /v1/responses.
