Getting started
Get an API key
Create an API key at
[api.together.ai/settings/api-keys](https://api.together.ai/settings/api-keys).
Run onboarding
```bash
openclaw onboard --auth-choice together-api-key
```
Set a default model
```json5
{
agents: {
defaults: {
model: {
primary: "together/meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-Turbo",
},
},
},
}
```
Non-interactive example
bash
openclaw onboard --non-interactive \
--mode local \
--auth-choice together-api-key \
--together-api-key "$TOGETHER_API_KEY"Note
The onboarding preset sets together/meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-Turbo as the default model.

together/moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6 | Kimi K2.6 FP4 | text, image | 262,144 | Kimi reasoning model |
together/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro | DeepSeek V4 Pro | text | 512,000 | Reasoning text model |
together/Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-Turbo | Qwen2.5 7B Instruct Turbo | text | 32,768 | Fast text model |
together/zai-org/GLM-5.1 | GLM 5.1 FP4 | text | 202,752 | Reasoning text model |
Video generation
The bundled together plugin also registers video generation through the shared video_generate tool.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Default video model | together/Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B |
| Modes | text-to-video; single-image reference only with Wan-AI/Wan2.2-I2V-A14B |
| Supported parameters | aspectRatio, resolution |
To use Together as the default video provider:
json5
{
agents: {
defaults: {
videoGenerationModel: {
primary: "together/Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B",
},
},
},
}Tip
See Video Generation for the shared tool parameters, provider selection, and failover behavior.
Environment note
If the Gateway runs as a daemon (launchd/systemd), make sure
`TOGETHER_API_KEY` is available to that process (for example, in
`~/.openclaw/.env` or via `env.shellEnv`).
Warning
Keys set only in your interactive shell are not visible to daemon-managed
gateway processes. Use `~/.openclaw/.env` or `env.shellEnv` config for
persistent availability.
Troubleshooting
- Verify your key works: `openclaw models list --provider together`
- If models are not appearing, confirm the API key is set in the correct
environment for your Gateway process.
- Model refs use the form `together/<model-id>`.
