Get an API key

PhysiClaw works with many LLM providers. Pick one, create an account, and generate an API key. Then add the key to PhysiClaw and choose a provider/model.

Provider	Where to get the key
openai	platform.openai.com/api-keys
anthropic	platform.claude.com/settings/keys
google	aistudio.google.com/apikey
qwen	bailian.console.aliyun.com
moonshot	platform.moonshot.cn
deepseek	platform.deepseek.com

Once you have an API key, add it and pick a model:

bash

physiclaw models key <provider>      # paste the key when prompted
physiclaw models use <provider/model>

Pick a multimodal model

PhysiClaw looks at the phone screen on every step, so it needs a multimodal model that takes both images and text. A text-only model won’t work.

For example, run physiclaw models key anthropic, paste your API key, then run physiclaw models use anthropic/claude-sonnet-5 to start using Claude.
