@alfe.ai/openclaw

OpenClaw plugin that connects to the local Alfe gateway daemon via IPC.

What It Does

• Connects to the Alfe gateway daemon at ~/.alfe/gateway.sock
• Registers OpenClaw capabilities (sessions, tools, plugins) with the daemon
• Re-registers automatically on reconnect (daemon may restart)
• Gracefully handles daemon being unavailable

Usage

// openclaw.config.js
export default {
  plugins: {
    entries: {
      '@alfe.ai/openclaw': {},
    },
  },
};

The daemon socket path defaults to ~/.alfe/gateway.sock. Override via config (socketPath) or the ALFE_GATEWAY_SOCKET environment variable.

Setup

alfe setup   # Authenticate and install the gateway daemon

Architecture

Alfe Cloud ←—— WebSocket ——→ alfe-gateway daemon (always-on)
                                    ↕ IPC (~/.alfe/gateway.sock)
                              @alfe.ai/openclaw (this plugin)
                                    ↕
                               OpenClaw process

The plugin is a thin IPC client. All heavy lifting (cloud connection, auth, protocol translation) is handled by the daemon.

Note

Integration management (install, remove, configure, health) is handled by the gateway service directly — this plugin does not process integration commands.
