Getting OpenClaw Running
You already know what OpenClaw is. You've probably starred the repo. Maybe you've spun it up once and hit a wall somewhere around channel config or API keys or "wait, which model am I actually running?"
That's what this night is for.
This event is brought to you in collaboration with Give(a)Go and AI Collective — and the team from Jentic who have been running OpenClaw agents in production and building skills on top of it. They'll be in the room to help you through it. Bring your laptop, bring your questions, and by the end of the night you'll have an agent actually running. Talking to you on WhatsApp or Telegram. Doing things.
What usually trips people up (and what we'll cover):
Hosting: VPS vs home server, what's actually worth the hassle
Channel setup: linking WhatsApp without losing your mind
Skills and tools: connecting real APIs so it can actually do stuff
Personality and memory: SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, making it yours
Model selection: not burning money on every message
Prep materials go out beforehand. Come ready, or come from zero — both are fine.
Bring a laptop. That's it.
About Jentic
Jentic is the missing layer between your APIs and AI agents. When you deploy agents to production, you hit real walls: fragmented API access, no governance, untested behaviour crashing into live systems. Jentic removes that friction.
