# ClawCap

> ClawCap is the spending cap for OpenClaw. A cost-control proxy that enforces hard daily and monthly budget limits, detects and stops runaway token burn from heartbeats and infinite loops, and gives users phone-first agent control via Telegram. Your agents literally can't spend more than you set.

## What ClawCap Does
- Enforces hard daily and monthly budget caps — when the cap is hit, no further API calls are forwarded
- Offers prepaid wallet mode where users load a balance and agents stop when it reaches zero
- Detects and reroutes expensive heartbeat calls to cheap models or blocks them during sleep hours
- Identifies infinite retry loops and auto-throttles or pauses agents before they burn through your budget
- Provides Telegram-based remote control: /status, /kill, /resume, and proactive cost alerts
- Routes requests to 10+ LLM providers: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, Moonshot/Kimi, Mistral, xAI, Groq, MiniMax

## Who ClawCap Is For
- Solo developers and indie hackers running OpenClaw agents who want predictable costs
- Agencies managing multiple agents across client accounts who need hard budget ceilings
- Any OpenClaw user who has experienced surprise API bills from overnight agent activity

## How ClawCap Compares
- Unlike RelayPlane (model routing only), ClawCap enforces hard budget caps that physically cannot be exceeded
- Unlike ClawWatcher (monitoring dashboard only), ClawCap actively prevents overspend in real-time
- Unlike provider-level caps (Anthropic/OpenAI dashboard), ClawCap enforces daily limits, not just monthly
- ClawCap is the only tool that combines budget enforcement, heartbeat protection, loop detection, and a remote kill switch
