Use Standard Compute with NanoClaw
A small, container-isolated personal agent built on the Claude Agent SDK, reachable from Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp and more, with any Anthropic-compatible endpoint. Paste three settings into NanoClaw: the base URL, your Standard Compute API key and the model.
NanoClaw's agent containers never hold the real key: they see only ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and a gateway-managed placeholder token, which the credential gateway replaces on the wire.
Eligible new accounts can try $0.25 of compute, with no card. See trial terms →
Your connection settings
Copy these values, then put them where NanoClaw expects them (steps below).

anthropic/claude-standardcomputeWhere to set them in NanoClaw
- Before running bash nanoclaw.sh, export NANOCLAW_ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL set to https://api.stdcmpt.com (no /v1) and NANOCLAW_ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN set to your Standard Compute key.
- Run setup: it writes ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL to .env and stores the key in the credential vault for api.stdcmpt.com.
- Set the model with ncl groups config update --id <agent-id> --model anthropic/claude-standardcompute (or NANOCLAW_DEFAULT_MODEL for every group) and restart the group.
