Use NVIDIA's OpenAI-compatible API in OpenClaw	You want to use open models in OpenClaw for free You need NVIDIA_API_KEY setup	NVIDIA

NVIDIA

NVIDIA provides an OpenAI-compatible API at https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1 for open models for free. Authenticate with an API key from build.nvidia.com.

CLI setup

Export the key once, then run onboarding and set an NVIDIA model:

export NVIDIA_API_KEY="nvapi-..."
openclaw onboard --auth-choice skip
openclaw models set nvidia/nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b

If you still pass --token, remember it lands in shell history and ps output; prefer the env var when possible.

Config snippet

{
  env: { NVIDIA_API_KEY: "nvapi-..." },
  models: {
    providers: {
      nvidia: {
        baseUrl: "https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1",
        api: "openai-completions",
      },
    },
  },
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      model: { primary: "nvidia/nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b" },
    },
  },
}
