How to Fix OpenClaw API Key Errors

# Anthropic Claude keys start with:
# sk-ant-api03-...

# OpenAI keys start with:
# sk-...

# Check your key (don't expose it fully):
echo $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY | cut -c1-10
# Should show: sk-ant-api

# Common mistakes:
# - Using publishable key instead of secret key
# - Extra whitespace or newlines in key
# - Partial key copied from dashboard

# Check if .env file exists in correct location:
ls -la ~/.openclaw/.env
# Or:
ls -la /opt/openclaw/.env

# Test if variable is set in OpenClaw process:
cat /proc/$(pgrep -f openclaw)/environ | tr '\0' '\n' | grep API_KEY

# For debugging, temporarily log the key prefix:
export OPENCLAW_DEBUG=true
# Check logs for "API key loaded: sk-ant-***"

# Test Anthropic key:
curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages \
  -H "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \
  -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"claude-3-haiku-20240307","max_tokens":10,"messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hi"}]}'

# Test OpenAI key:
curl https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"gpt-4","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hi"}],"max_tokens":10}'

# Look for 200 response, not 401

# Anthropic: Check key in Console
# https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys
# Verify:
# - Key is not disabled
# - Has access to required models (Claude 3 Opus, Sonnet, etc.)
# - Rate limits are not exhausted

# OpenAI: Check in API settings
# https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
# Verify:
# - Key has correct permissions
# - Not restricted to specific models
# - Organization/project access is correct

# 1. Generate new key in provider console
# 2. Update OpenClaw config:
nano ~/.openclaw/.env
# Update:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-api03-NEW_KEY_HERE

# 3. Restart OpenClaw to load new key:
systemctl restart openclaw

# 4. Verify new key works:
curl http://localhost:3000/health
curl http://localhost:3000/api/test-llm

# Check Anthropic status:
curl https://status.anthropic.com/api/v2/status.json | jq .

# Check OpenAI status:
curl https://status.openai.com/api/v2/status.json | jq .

# Or visit status pages:
# https://status.anthropic.com
# https://status.openai.com

# If provider is down, OpenClaw will show 401 or 503 errors
