# Deploy and Host nullclaw-railway-template on Railway

A Docker-based deployment template for NullClaw — an AI agent framework supporting Claude, GPT, Llama, and other LLMs via Telegram, Discord, Slack, IRC, and CLI. Deploy to Railway.app or run locally with Docker in minutes.

## About Hosting nullclaw-railway-template

Hosting nullclaw-railway-template requires deploying a Docker container that runs the NullClaw binary. The template uses a multi-stage build to compile NullClaw from its GitHub repository with Zig. At runtime, `entrypoint.sh` generates a JSON configuration file from environment variables. The service exposes HTTP endpoints for health checks (`/health`) and API access on port 3000. You'll need at least one LLM provider API key — OpenRouter is recommended for its 100+ model support.

## Common Use Cases

- Deploy AI agents for personal assistance accessible via Telegram, Discord, or Slack
- Build intelligent chatbots with Claude, GPT, or Llama models
- Create CLI-based AI assistants for terminal workflows
- Run autonomous agents with configurable autonomy levels and sandbox isolation

## Dependencies for nullclaw-railway-template Hosting

- Docker and Docker Compose
- At least one LLM provider API key (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Groq, xAI, DeepSeek, Mistral, or Ollama)

### Deployment Dependencies

- [Railway.app Account](https://railway.app/)
- [Railway CLI](https://docs.railway.app/guides/cli) (optional)
- [NullClaw Documentation](https://github.com/nullclaw/nullclaw/blob/main/docs/en/configuration.md)
- [OpenRouter Models](https://openrouter.ai/models)

### Implementation Details

Railway uses `railway.json` for deployment configuration:
- Builder: Dockerfile
- Health check: `GET /health`
- Restart policy: ON_FAILURE (max 10 retries)
- Port: 3000 (Railway convention via `PORT` env var)

Required environment variables for deployment:
```bash
OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-or-v1-xxxxx  # At least one provider required
PORT=3000
DEFAULT_MODEL=openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
```
