Get started
- Cohere ships with current OpenClaw packages. If it is missing, install the external package and restart the Gateway:
openclaw plugins install @openclaw/cohere-provider
openclaw gateway restart
- Create a Cohere API key.
- Run onboarding:
openclaw onboard --non-interactive \
--auth-choice cohere-api-key \
--cohere-api-key "$COHERE_API_KEY"
- Confirm the catalog is available:
openclaw models list --provider cohere
Onboarding only sets Cohere as the primary model when no primary model is already configured.
Environment-only setup
Make COHERE_API_KEY available to the Gateway process, then select the Cohere model:
{
agents: {
defaults: {
model: { primary: "cohere/command-a-03-2025" },
},
},
}
