name: volcengine description: Configure and use Volcano Engine (Volcengine) models including Doubao (Seed 2.0), GLM, DeepSeek, and Qwen. Use when: (1) Setting up Volcengine API access in OpenClaw, (2) Choosing between LLM and VLM (multimodal) models, (3) Configuring model aliases for easy access, (4) Troubleshooting authentication or connection issues with Volcengine providers.

Volcengine Skill

Configure and use Volcano Engine (Volcengine) models with OpenClaw. This skill covers both general-purpose models and specialized coding models through Volcengine's OpenAI-compatible API endpoints.

Quick Start

1. Get API Key

1. Sign up at Volcano Engine Console
2. Navigate to Access Key Management
3. Create a new API key with appropriate permissions
4. Copy the API key (format: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx，无需添加sk-前缀)

2. Configure OpenClaw

Interactive setup (recommended)

openclaw onboard --auth-choice volcengine-api-key

Follow the prompts to enter your API key.

Manual config (openclaw.json)

Add to your openclaw.json:
