OPENCLAW + ANIMA

Give OpenClaw agents an identity

Give your OpenClaw agents a real-world identity — email, phone, voice, and a vault behind one API. Anima speaks MCP, so OpenClaw connects the same way any MCP-aware agent does.

Connect

Connect OpenClaw in one step

Pick a path — each gives OpenClaw its own identity. The self-onboard prompt is the fastest; the MCP server and SDK wire it into your stack.

The fastest path — the agent reads the skill, signs itself up, and asks you to confirm the email.

Why give it its own identity

Its own identity

Not your inbox or your number — your OpenClaw agent gets its own. Every email, call, and login is attributable to the agent, not to you.

Compliant by default

TCPA, RND, and DNC checks run server-side before any call or text leaves the agent. You don't wire up compliance — it's on by default.

Use, never see

The agent authenticates with vaulted credentials it can use but never reads in plaintext, and clears its own 2FA challenges from SMS.

Working code

Prompt it, or drop in the SDK

Once connected, OpenClaw acts as itself. Prompt it in plain language:

“Get yourself set up on Anima and email me to verify.”
“Answer inbound calls on your number and summarize each one by email.”
“Store this API key in your vault and use it to log in later.”

Provision an identity in code, then send from it.

import { Anima } from "@anima-labs/sdk";

const anima = new Anima(); // reads ANIMA_API_KEY

const agent = await anima.agents.create({
  orgId: process.env.ANIMA_ORG_ID,
  name: "My Agent",
  slug: "my-agent",
  provisionPhone: true,
});

console.log(agent.emailIdentities[0].email);
// my-agent@agents.useanima.sh

FAQ

Anima + OpenClaw

How do I connect Anima to OpenClaw?: Paste the self-onboard prompt and your agent reads useanima.sh/skill.md, signs itself up, and unlocks a full identity once you confirm the email — or point OpenClaw at the hosted MCP server. No SMTP or provider setup.
Do I need to run my own email or phone infrastructure?: No. Anima provisions the inbox, handles deliverability (DKIM, SPF, DMARC), and supplies the phone number and voice pipeline. You just need an API key.
Can the agent receive, not just send?: Yes. Every identity can send and receive email and SMS, place and answer calls, and get webhooks in real time.
Is there an MCP option?: Yes — point OpenClaw at https://mcp.useanima.sh/mcp with a Bearer key. The MCP server, CLI, and SDK all expose the same operations, so pick whichever fits your setup.
How are credentials kept safe?: Secrets live in an encrypted vault. The agent uses them to log in but never reads them in plaintext — reveal ≠ use — and every use is logged with a correlation ID.
Is there a free tier?: Yes. Start free with email included and no credit card. Phone, voice, and vault unlock on a paid plan.
