Description
OpenClaw's integration mechanism for hosting external coding harnesses (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI) as agents under its gateway control plane. Makes OpenClaw and Claude Code compositional rather than purely alternative: the gateway-level system and the task-level harness can stack, suggesting the AI agent design space is layered rather than a flat taxonomy.
Key claims
- Two systems are compositional, not exclusive alternatives
