Quick checkpoint: So far, getting a basic nanoclaw setup working with Claude Code + API key: ~7€

This includes:

  • Bootstrapping the installation itself
  • Setting up WhatsApp
  • Setting up Gmail
  • Setting up Calendar

Add to that about 4€ for creating a new mentor-like "role" that I want openclaw to "play" and setting it up with a daily cron-job.

So, ~11€ in total in Claude Code API credits.

Honestly, this feels right. I actually now think that a lot more onboarding flows should be chat-based and Claude Code was, again, just a solid partner. Walked me through the steps one-by-one, fixed problems quickly.

Pretty impressed.
