Token Optimizer for OpenClaw

Slash your AI costs from $1,500+/month to under $50/month.

The Problem

OpenClaw defaults prioritize capability over cost. You're burning expensive Sonnet/Opus tokens on tasks Haiku handles perfectly, paying for API heartbeats that could run free locally, and loading 50KB of context when 8KB suffices.

The Solution

Four core optimizations plus powerful tooling:

Model Routing (92% savings)

Haiku by default, Sonnet/Opus only when needed

Multi-Provider Heartbeats (100% savings)

Route heartbeats to Ollama, LM Studio, Groq, or disable entirely. Not locked to one provider.

Session Management (80% savings)

Load 8KB instead of 50KB context

Caching (90% savings)

Reuse prompts at 10% cost

New in v1.0.8

Rollback - List and restore config backups instantly
Health Check - Quick system status in one command
Diff Preview - See exactly what changes before applying
--no-color - CI/pipeline friendly output

Cost Comparison

Period	Before	After
Daily	$2-3	$0.10
Monthly	$70-90	$3-5
Yearly	$800+	$40-60

What's Included

One-command optimizer with diff preview
Multi-provider heartbeat (Ollama, LM Studio, Groq)
Config rollback and health check commands
Ready-to-use config templates
SOUL.md & USER.md templates
Optimization rules for agent prompts
Verification and savings reports

What This Tool Modifies

All changes are written under ~/.openclaw/. A backup is created before any modification.

Path	Purpose
~/.openclaw/openclaw.json	Main OpenClaw config (model routing, heartbeat, budgets)
~/.openclaw/backups/	Timestamped config backups (created automatically)
~/.openclaw/workspace/	Template files (SOUL.md, USER.md, IDENTITY.md)
~/.openclaw/prompts/	Agent prompt optimization rules
~/.openclaw/token-optimizer-stats.json	Usage stats for savings reports

Safe by default - All commands run in dry-run (preview) mode. Pass --apply to write changes.

Quick Start

bash

# Install
clawhub install token-optimizer

# Analyze current setup
python cli.py analyze

# Preview changes (dry-run by default)
python cli.py optimize

# Apply all optimizations
python cli.py optimize --apply

# Verify setup
python cli.py verify

# Quick health check
python cli.py health

# Configure heartbeat provider (preview)
python cli.py setup-heartbeat --provider ollama

# Configure heartbeat provider (apply)
python cli.py setup-heartbeat --provider ollama --apply

# List and restore backups
python cli.py rollback --list
python cli.py rollback --to <backup-file>
