1. OpenClaw Site Brain

Create a cluster at Qdrant Cloud. Choose a region close to the website’s hosting location. The plugin creates the collection automatically, so there is no manual collection setup.

Qdrant Cloud: cloud.qdrant.io

Copy the cluster endpoint and API key. Save the API key somewhere secure because the UI does not show it again.

Create an API key at the OpenAI platform and add credit. This key is used to create embeddings and search visitor questions. OpenClaw’s own agent answers may appear as separate model usage.

OpenAI API keys: platform.openai.com/api-keys

First, download the oc-site-brain.zip plugin.

In your WordPress site, go to Plugins > Add Plugin.

1. Choose Upload Plugin.
2. Select the plugin you just downloaded: oc-site-brain.zip
3. Install and activate it.

Go to Site Brain > Connect.

1. Paste the OpenAI key and click Test. Look for a successful embedding response, normally mentioning 1536 dimensions for the small model.
2. Paste the Qdrant endpoint and key and click Test. Look for a successful connection and a ready collection.
3. Choose text-embedding-3-small for most English sites. Choose the large model only when the additional cost and multilingual retrieval are worth it.
4. Click Save changes.

Changing the embedding model later requires rebuilding the index because the vectors are not interchangeable.

Go to Site Brain > Content.

1. Select the public post types to include.
2. Review the cost estimate.
3. Click Index my site and wait for the progress bar to finish. You may need to refresh the page for the button to become active.

Drafts, private posts and password-protected posts are excluded. Once indexed, edited or newly published posts are re-indexed individually. Unchanged posts are skipped.

Go to Site Brain > OpenClaw.

1. Open the OpenClaw Control UI and go to Chat.
2. From Site Brain > OpenClaw, copy the gateway block at Step 1 and paste it in the OpenClaw chat as one message: /config set gateway.http.endpoints.chatCompletions.enabled=true
3. Copy the restart block at Step 2 and paste it in the OpenClaw chat as one message: /restart

Send one line at a time. After the restart, start a new chat. This enables the chat API that WordPress needs to reach the agent.

Go back to Site Brain > OpenClaw.

The plugin generates setup blocks with the relevant credentials already filled in.

1. Copy the visitor-assistant block, and paste it into OpenClaw Chat as a normal message, not as a slash command.
2. Wait for a ready confirmation.
3. If you want the private content-strategy tools, copy and paste the separate team-agent block as a separate message.

The visitor agent receives a read-only key. The team agent receives a fuller key that can access analytics, reindexing, internal links and orphan-page tools. Keep both blocks private.

Still on the OpenClaw tab in your WordPress site, enter the Gateway URL and Gateway token, then click Check it worked.

• Use the same web address used to open the OpenClaw Control UI as the Gateway URL, without an extra path or port.
• Use the Gateway token used to sign in to the Control UI.
• Choose the visitor assistant from the agent dropdown. If the dropdown is empty, repeat Step 1; the chat API is probably still disabled.

You can find your Gateway token in your OpenClaw UI under Overview > Gateway Access.

Go to Site Brain > Widget.

Change the name, subtitle, avatar, colour, position, opening message, suggestions, placeholder and consent wording. Replace the default recipe language if the site is about another subject.

Click Save changes. Then load the public website and open the chat bubble.

Ask the visitor assistant three questions:

• A question clearly covered by an existing post. Confirm that the answer links to the correct real page.
• A question the site does not cover. Confirm that it refuses politely instead of inventing an answer.
• An unrelated question, such as the weather. Confirm that it steers the visitor back to the site’s topic.

Then, under Site Brain > Status, check for the indexed count, embedding model and unanswered visitor questions.

In the OpenClaw UI chat, switch to the recipe-brain team agent and try asking the following:

• What are visitors asking that we cannot answer?
• Which posts have nothing linking to them?
• Give me an internal linking plan for [post title].
• Do we have content gaps around [topic]?

The team agent should advise and explain. It does not automatically edit the site or apply its link plan.
