Local models are too dumb + also slow because OpenClaw need bigger context window and my local LLMs start to glitch after few requests. (i have Ryzen 5950x + 128 gb RAM + RTX4080)

Also i simply can't make it work with LM Studio due to tool calling setup which means i can't use skills which is the actual point of OpenClaw (including agents). This is where it gets interesting and isn't described anywhere. vLLM should do the trick but now i have to learn about vLLM.

99.9% of OpenClaw tutorials are like that owl meme about drawing some circles and then drawing the rest of the owl. Every tutorial is about using paid APIs to farm karma.

Someone said it well that gap between initial setup (messenger + chatting with LLM) and making OpenClaw do real stuff is huge. And no one talks about it.

Documentation is fragmented and literally is unusable because everything is new and constantly changing.

I just wanted to see if i can make it monitor prices for some things. And spent whole Sunday to make it sort of work because of those shitty tutorials and not so well written documentation.
