Each agent has its own list of allowed models, grouped by provider. The default model is what the agent reaches for when nothing else says otherwise; you can also swap models in the middle of a conversation if you want a faster (or smarter) one for a specific turn.

​
What you see

Open your agent → Models. The page lists each connected provider as a separate section. Only providers you’ve connected in the Secrets Vault show up here — if you don’t see OpenAI, for example, it’s because you haven’t connected an OpenAI key. Inside each provider section:
  • One row per model that’s currently enabled
  • A DEFAULT badge marks the agent’s default model
  • An × on a row removes that model from this agent
  • + ADD at the top right of each section lets you enable more models from that provider

​
Enable a model

Click + ADD in the provider section and pick a model from the list. It’s now available to this agent — you can call it from chat or set it as default. Removing one with × doesn’t disconnect the provider, it just narrows the menu.

​
Set the default

The default is what gets used when you don’t specify a model. Click a model row to set it as default; the DEFAULT badge moves.

​
Switch models mid-conversation

On the Chat tab, the MODEL dropdown next to the message input lets you pick a model for the next turn. You’d typically reach for this to:
  • Use a fast/cheap model for routine questions
  • Bump up to a more capable model for a hard one
  • Compare answers from two models on the same prompt
Each response is tagged with the model that produced it, so the conversation stays readable when you switch.

​
What models look like in configs

When you reference a model in code, in manifest.json, or in a task payload, the convention is provider/model: 
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6
openrouter/tencent/hy3-preview
openai/gpt-5.4
The provider prefix tells OpenClaw which connected provider to use. If you give it a model that isn’t enabled on this agent, the request falls back to the default.

​
What’s available today

The exact list updates as providers ship. A current snapshot:
  • Anthropic — claude-opus-4-6, claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-haiku-4-5
  • OpenAI Codex (subscription) — gpt-5.4
  • OpenRouter — auto (lets OpenRouter pick), plus any specific model on the platform (e.g. tencent/hy3-preview)
  • Venice / Pinata / Custom — whatever the provider exposes
When you select auto on OpenRouter, OpenRouter picks the underlying model for each request. Handy if you don’t want to micromanage which model handles what.
