كيف تتدفق الرسائل

Let us trace one message end to end, from your chat app to OpenClaw and back. Seeing the flow makes it all click. 🔁

It starts when you type in a channel, a connected chat app like WhatsApp or Telegram, and hit send.

That channel is bridged into the Gateway. Your message crosses the bridge from the chat app into OpenClaw.

The message lands at the Gateway, the central hub that knows about every session, route, and channel.

The Gateway does its job of routing, deciding which agent and which session this particular message belongs to.

Routing uses your session. Each sender has their own isolated session, so your context never mixes with someone else's.

The Gateway hands the message to the agent runtime, the part that actually thinks and decides how to respond.

The agent draws on persistent memory and any skills it has, so its reply fits the ongoing conversation.

The agent's answer flows back through the Gateway, which sends it out over the same channel you used.

The reply arrives right in your chat app. To you it feels like texting a friend, with the Gateway quietly in the middle.

Every step touches the Gateway. It is the constant hub between your channels and the agent, in both directions.

Let us check the path a message takes.

A message flows from your channel through the Gateway to the agent, then back again. The Gateway is the hub at every step. 🎉
