More Than One Agent
OpenClaw can run more than one agent. You might have one for work, another for personal tasks, each with its own focus.
One Gateway for All
No matter how many agents you run, they all sit behind one Gateway. It is the single hub that ties them together. 🧭
What Routing Means
Routing is deciding where a message should go. The Gateway figures out which agent and session each message belongs to.
Messages Get Steered
When a message arrives, the Gateway steers it to the right agent. You do not have to wire that up by hand for every message.
The Gateway Decides
Because the Gateway is the single source of truth, it is the one that decides routing for the whole system.
Many In, One Hub
Channels like WhatsApp and Telegram all flow into the same Gateway. From there, multi-agent routing sends each message onward.
Right Agent, Right Job
Routing means each request reaches the right agent for the job, so the best-suited assistant answers.
Sessions Stay Separate
Even with shared routing, each agent keeps its own isolated sessions. Routing connects them without mixing their context.
One Place to Manage
Because everything routes through one Gateway, you have a single place to manage how your agents are reached.
Scales With You
Start with one agent, add more later. The Gateway scales the routing for you as your setup grows.
Why Central Routing Helps
Central routing keeps a multi-agent setup simple. One coordinator, many specialists, no tangled wiring. ✨
