About Hosting OpenClaw (Clawdbot) - Railway Template

Hosting OpenClaw (Clawdbot) on Railway deploys a web-accessible OpenClaw (Clawdbot) Gateway and Control UI behind Railway’s HTTP proxy. You complete initial setup in the browser at /setup (secured with a password), providing your model credentials and optional chat channel tokens. The template mounts a persistent volume at /data so your configuration, credentials, conversations, and workspace survive restarts and can be exported for migration.
