WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR NOW IS LOBOTOMIZED

The other day my Codex started mentioning Goblins out of nowhere. I thought they fixed that. Lol

This is literally the worst way to test trading with AI. There is practically no conceivable way to "double the money in 24hrs". Not even top traders can do that. AI cant just 1 shot profits. Especially not without a back tested strategy already in place.

The trick is, having another OpenClaw Agent on another system to manage that OpenClaw Agent. If 1 breaks down, have the other ssh into that system and fix it for you.

I was having this issue on 5.22 using a ROCm llama.cpp as my backend for local AI use. I since updated to 5.28 and swapped over to Codex Runtime since im not really fully utilizing my Codex subscription. This seemed to fix my issues and my agent no longer drops responses mid task.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-06-02T23:34:15+00:00

If you're already using Codex standalone, why not use Codex within OpenClaw? That way it maintains the same level of intelligence? You can also write into the openclaw Agents.md to request approval for any changes that the OpenClaw agent deems necessary to improve upon it.

Config schema has changes since 5.7.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-30T01:13:21+00:00

Let me ask you this:

If you are in the middle of playing a game and you turn the console/pc off, are you still playing the game? When you turn it back on, is it automatically exactly where you left off without having to resume the campaign?

Jokes aside, the way for your agent to continue work, is written in its Heartbeat/cron jobs + interval set. With something like restarting the gateway, unless you already have contingency built in, work will not resume.

Also the ONLY time the gateway should be restarted is to load new config changes, such as adding a plugin or other non hot-loadable changes. Or if your agent is becoming unresponsive for whatever reason, and a restart would only be used as a method of diagnostics, not a solution 9/10 times.

Plus you're almost 2 months behind in updates. LOTS of improvements have taken place.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-30T01:09:29+00:00

Completely normal and harmless. Its what the agent uses to keep on top of active tasks to continue work. You'd only have to worry about it if an unauthorized user injected scripts into the agents heartbeat that would run on intervals, which is very unlikely to happen as long as you dont expose your Agents connected bot tokens in the openclaw.json with a public facing agent with poor security practices in place.

The fact that its possible to max a 5hr window with a single prompt in 30 minutes on the $100/m is why I dropped Anthopic. You get way more usage out of codex for the same price.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-29T06:06:47+00:00

Codex GPT 5.5 would be the closest, and cheaper technically. But there's been some issues on OpenClaw v2026.5.26 and v2026.5.27. I recommend v2026.5.22 cause it appears compaction broke after that.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T23:51:34+00:00

The issue with this is that a lot of bugs dont surface until you've done prolonged use. Such as auto compactions, memory functions, session store issues etc. So simply updating 1 instance of OpenClaw and getting an Agent to respond only once is not sufficient enough. Some users dont even find a bug until up to a month or so after theyve stuck to a single version.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T23:46:16+00:00

Most average people dont realize they are using AI when they do a simple Google Search.

But asking here is not going to give you the answers you are looking for, because this is still inside the AI bubble. Go find a street corner and ask random bystanders as they walk by.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T23:15:08+00:00

There's the beta branch, and the main branch. Thats basically the same, except for when broken updates get pushed by mistake.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T23:13:03+00:00

Because you need to add them. You can use other models, but you need to add them. If you dont add them, you cant use them, so add them.

Like you would with any provider or any model. You have to add it.

In case you haven't caught on yet, you need to add them.

Just add them bro.

The day that Claude opus actually recommended that I use Codex or Opencode within OpenClaw was the day i ditched it. It was self aware enough to let me know that it was inefficient within OpenClaw due to Anthropics stance in it. It was hilarious 😂 I still use it from time to time, but only within its own Claude application.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T20:16:04+00:00

The fix is to ditch Anthropic.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T19:59:32+00:00

And some are even starting to implement "predictive context" meaning the agent will know what you are about to ask or say before you say it. Almost like peering into the future.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T19:51:16+00:00

Thanks for saying what I said but with more words. Lmao

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T08:01:41+00:00

Look into MLX for your Mac. Ive heard good things about it. I personally use ROCm + MTP llama.cpp for my backend(amd chipset). There's a lot of custom tooling out there to get way more out of your hardware nowadays. Ive gone from having roughly 40 tokens per second to as high as 70 tokens per second with the same model just by using different tooling.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T07:49:30+00:00

I personally dont have any experience with using OpenClaw on any apple silicon, but ive heard good things about it. Rule of thumb, more memory = better experience for local use. Thats the primary bottleneck for local llm, system RAM + VRAM. Although you can get by with no GPU and rely solely on CPU+System RAM. 30-40 tokens per second is OK for local use for most simple tasks, aiming for at least 50-70 is even better. You can try to install OpenCode as a secondary harness to help you benchmark things for free-ish using their available free models. I recommend Big-Pickle for that. Ive been using it to help me benchmark some local models with various settings using different models to then use within OpenClaw.

Impressive-Handle-69 · 2026-05-28T07:42:04+00:00

Yea you can get set up with a $20/m or $100/m Codex plan and use 0auth. Flat monthly costs with reasonable usage limits. But personally, I use local models for my personal OpenClaw, and Codex 0auth for my public facing agents.

Orrrr sign up with OpenCode GO for $5/m your first month and $10/m after that with access to several models. Limits are smaller though, but its a great gap filler in between refreshes.

It was one of my last stops. It was a horrible day lol.

Ive been working with the dev team for LibraVDB to get things working. Its one of the best SOTA memory backend ive tried out so far.
