About this gig
Is your OpenClaw agent failing to start, agents not routing, channels not responding, or LLM tokens burning fast?
I install, fix, and build production-ready OpenClaw and Hermes agent systems on your VPS or Mac Mini. I wire in Paperclip orchestration, n8n automation, MCP servers, Obsidian vault memory, and Claude Code hardened, 24/7, and fully autonomous.
What you get:
- OpenClaw install on Mac Mini or VPS with PM2 and Docker 24/7 uptime
- Hermes AI agent with Paperclip orchestration and heartbeat scheduling
- Paperclip company setup agent roles, budgets, task routing, and approval gates
- n8n automation workflows and MCP server integration
- Multi-agent system with Obsidian vault memory and persistent context
- Server hardening, VPS security, firewall, and SSL
- WhatsApp, Telegram, and Slack channel integration
- Claude Code agent setup with MCP integration
- Hard spending caps per agent and model fallback chains
- Custom skill creation and sub-agent deployment
- Soul.md, Memory.md, and Agent.md for stable agent identity
- OpenClaw gateway fixes

FAQ
What is Paperclip and why does it matter for my Openclaw or Hermes agent deployment?
Paperclip is the multi-agent orchestration layer above OpenClaw and Hermes. OpenClaw is your agent, Paperclip manages it: spending caps per agent, heartbeat cycles, human approval for high-impact actions. I configure board setup, agent roles, and gateway adapter so your system has governance.
What are Soul.md, Memory.md, and Agent.md and how do they make my Hermes agent smarter?
Soul.md sets your Hermes agent's persona, style, and values. Memory.md stores persistent facts and context that survive restarts. Agent.md sets active goals and operating instructions. Together they give your Hermes agent stable identity, persistent memory, and clear purpose across every session.
Which Openclaw provider configs do you support for API key management and fallback chains?
I configure Openclaw with Claude (Anthropic API), OpenAI, Ollama (local LLMs), Gemini, OpenRouter, and Kimi AI. For enterprise setups I implement model fallback chains, rate limit handling, and isolated API key management per agent channel.
Can you set up multi-agent systems with Hermes and separate agent roles like sales or ops?
Yes. I architect and deploy multi-agent Openclaw systems where each agent has defined roles (sales, ops, customer service), its own channel and system prompt, and Hermes-based inter-agent communication and task routing.
How do you configure mcp server integrations Google Drive, Gmail, Crm, or custom APIs?
I install and wire mcp servers directly into the Openclaw config, mapping each server to its authorized tools and scopes. I've integrated Gmail, Google Drive, Zoho crm, Hubspot, Notion, and custom REST APIs via mcp in production agent setups.
Can you connect Openclaw to Whatsapp, Telegram, and Discord as input/output channels?
Yes. I integrate all three. Whatsapp via Whatsapp Business API or unofficial bridges, Telegram via Bot API with webhook setup, Discord via bot token and slash commands. Each channel is wired to its agent with message routing and fallback handling.
How do you ensure 24/7 uptime PM2 vs systemd vs Docker container orchestration?
For Mac Mini and local machines I use PM2 with auto-restart and startup scripts. For VPS I prefer Docker Compose with restart policies. For cloud-scale setups I use systemd with watchdog timers. The right choice depends on your environment and reliability requirements.
Do you build n8n workflow automation alongside the Openclaw agent deployment?
Yes. I build n8n workflows that trigger on agent events, route data to crms, send notifications, process webhooks, and execute multi-step automations. Openclaw and n8n work together as trigger-response and data pipelines across your full stack.
How do you configure persistent memory and heartbeat scheduling for autonomous operation?
I implement Memory.md and MemPalace or custom vector memory backends, configure session cache for context persistence, and set heartbeat intervals via Paperclip scheduling or PM2 cron. This enables the agent to maintain conversation history, track tasks, and run on schedule without human triggers.
Can you deploy browser automation, Playwright or Browserbase inside the agent?
Yes. I deploy Playwright, Browserbase, or Camofox inside Hermes Agent or Openclaw, enabling autonomous web browsing, form submission, and data scraping as native agent capabilities on your VPS.
