Connect Namera to agents running through your OpenClaw Gateway.

Install [Namera](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/installation) and complete
[account setup](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/getting-started#prepare-your-account) on the machine
that will run the client. Make sure its process can find both `namera` and Node.js.

For OpenClaw, that machine is the **Gateway host**, which may be different from
the device where you send messages. Its OS user needs access to Namera's keyring
and any imported keys. A container without a usable keyring is not sufficient.

## Add Namera [#add-namera]

In the Control UI, open **Settings → MCP → Add server**. Enter:

| Field     | Value                                   |
| --------- | --------------------------------------- |
| Name      | `namera`                                |
| Transport | Stdio                                   |
| Command   | `namera`                                |
| Arguments | `mcp`, `serve`, `--profile`, `openclaw` |

Save the server. If the form accepts one command line, enter
`namera mcp serve --profile openclaw`. Server definitions live under `mcp.servers`;
do not paste another client's `mcpServers` wrapper into OpenClaw's config.
See [OpenClaw's MCP setup](https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/mcp).

## Authorize [#authorize]

On the Gateway host, as the user that runs it:

```sh
namera mcp login --profile openclaw
namera mcp status --profile openclaw
```

Approve the connection in your browser and select the active session keys it may
use. Run these commands as the same OS user that runs the client. Namera saves
the connection in your OS keyring; no API key belongs in the client config.

Browser approval must reach the login process's loopback callback. If the Gateway
runs on a remote host without browser access, resolve that environment requirement
before using Namera; authorizing only on your laptop will not connect it.

## Use Namera [#use-namera]

Check server discovery on the Gateway host:

```sh
openclaw mcp doctor namera --probe
```

Make Namera available to the intended agent and session through OpenClaw's tool
policy. Connecting a server does not bypass those controls. Start with a private
conversation, not a shared channel whose participants should not control the account.

Ask in a new conversation:

> Use Namera to list my accounts and session keys. Summarize their networks and
> permissions. Do not submit a transaction or sign a message.

Allow the read tools if prompted. If Namera requests browser authorization,
complete it and retry the read request. An empty result means no resources were
returned for this connection; do not ask the agent to invent account details.

Keep tool confirmations enabled for execution and signing where supported. See
[Permissions and Limits](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/permissions) before granting broader access.

## Disconnect [#disconnect]

```sh
namera mcp logout --profile openclaw
```

Also remove or disable the `namera` server in the client to stop it launching.
Logout revokes the MCP connection without deleting imported keys. If revocation
fails, revoke the connection in the dashboard as instructed by the error.
