Ask HN: My OpenClaw doesn't respond. Anybody met with the same problem?

Problem: I installed OpenClaw multiple times on several Macs. It just didn't respond to me. Some of my friends met with the same problem.

I suspect that it might be the failure of calling Claude Code through setup-token because I use its subscription plan.

The official doc says it supports calling Claude Code through subscription, and I just need to generate a setup token. But it turns out it never worked. Openclaw just didn;t respond at all.

I changed to calling the OpenAI API key. It worked.

So has anyone met with the same problem and solved it? Is it really because Anthropic banned us from calling Claude code through the subscription plan?

Can somebody please share your experience? Thanks

The solution will be to wait a month for stories of runaway Openclaw ruining a few peoples' lives or careers.

Then the AI providers will stop throttling it. Until they figure out another pricing tier.

Unless this slightly negative AI story is suppressed too?

Run Claude Code on the node and ask it to debug the issue...

Actually I tried using Claude to debug it... didn't work either.
