OpenClaw connector

Nessie can connect to OpenClaw through the Nessie OpenClaw plugin. The plugin configures OpenClaw's MCP client so your OpenClaw agent can search, read, and use your Nessie context directly in chat.

Requirements:

  • OpenClaw must be installed
  • Cloud Sync must be enabled in Nessie so the hosted MCP server can read your synced library

Paste this into OpenClaw:

Install the Nessie plugin and connect it to my Nessie account:
1. Run: openclaw plugins install clawhub:@nessielabs/nessie-openclaw
2. Ask me for my Nessie account email, then run: openclaw nessie init --email <email>
3. Nessie emails me a 6-digit code. Ask me for it, then run: openclaw nessie init --email <email> --code <code>
4. Run: openclaw nessie status and confirm it reports connected
5. Remind me to quit and reopen OpenClaw so the Nessie tools load

Recommended read-only tools:

  • nessie_check_in
  • nessie_who_am_i

  • nessie_head
  • nessie_tail
  • nessie_stat
  • nessie_asset_get

Updates:

Automatic update checks are available in Nessie plugin version 0.1.29 and later. The first time you use Nessie in a session, OpenClaw checks for a newer plugin and asks before running its built-in updater. Nessie's hosted tools stay current automatically.

If OpenClaw does not check for updates, install the latest Nessie plugin:

openclaw plugins update @nessielabs/nessie-openclaw
The email-code flow creates and stores the Nessie credential in OpenClaw's local config. The full key is not pasted into chat.
