## Custom & Config

| :lucide-workflow:           | `subagents`      | Spawn and communicate with sub-agent sessions | -               |

Tool presets are config-only macros, not runtime tools. For OpenClaw workspace portability, `openclaw_compat` expands to `shell`, `coding`, `duckduckgo`, `website`, `browser`, `scheduler`, `subagents`, `matrix_message`, and `attachments`.

## Claude Agent Sessions

The `claude_agent` tool manages long-lived Claude coding sessions on the backend. This allows iterative coding workflows in the same session (including Claude-side tool usage and subagents).

When using the OpenAI-compatible API, set `X-Session-Id` to keep tool sessions stable across requests. See [OpenAI API Compatibility](https://docs.mindroom.chat/openai-api/#session-continuity).

Add `claude_agent` to an agent's tools in `config.yaml`:

```
agents:
  code:
    display_name: Code Agent
    role: Coding assistant with persistent Claude sessions
    model: general
    tools:
      - claude_agent
```

Configure credentials via the dashboard or by writing `mindroom_data/credentials/claude_agent_credentials.json`:

```
{
  "api_key": "sk-ant-or-proxy-key",
  "model": "claude-sonnet-4-5",
  "permission_mode": "default",
  "continue_conversation": true,
  "session_ttl_minutes": 60,
  "max_sessions": 200
}
```

To run through an Anthropic-compatible gateway (for example LiteLLM `/v1/messages`):

```
{
  "api_key": "sk-dummy",
  "anthropic_base_url": "http://litellm.local",
  "anthropic_auth_token": "sk-dummy",
  "disable_experimental_betas": true
}
```

Use the gateway host root for `anthropic_base_url` (no `/v1` suffix), because Claude clients append `/v1/messages`. Some Anthropic-compatible backends may reject Claude's `anthropic-beta` headers. Set `disable_experimental_betas` to `true` in that case.

## Enabling Tools

Add tools to agents in `config.yaml`:

```
agents:
  assistant:
    display_name: Assistant
    role: A helpful assistant
    model: sonnet
    tools:
      - file
      - shell
      - duckduckgo
      - github
```

Or use the Dashboard's Agents tab to enable tools visually.

## Environment Variables

Most tools require API keys or credentials. Set them in your `.env` file:

```
# Search
TAVILY_API_KEY=tvly-...
EXA_API_KEY=...

# Communication
SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=xoxb-...
GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_...

# AI Services
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
REPLICATE_API_TOKEN=r8_...
```

MindRoom automatically loads `.env` files from the working directory.
