keychat

# Install Keychat ```bash openclaw plugins install @keychat-io/keychat openclaw gateway restart ``` Supported platforms: macOS (ARM/x64), Linux (x64/ARM64). The plugin automatically downloads the bridge binary, configures `channels.keychat` in `openclaw.json`, and generates a new Nostr identity on first start. The agent will send its Keychat ID (`npub1...`), contact link, and QR code to the user's active chat after first install. ## Security Warnings The scanner may show two warnings during install. Both are expected: - **bridge-client.ts** — Spawns a Rust sidecar for Signal Protocol and MLS Protocol encryption (Keychat's crypto is implemented in Rust, needs bridging to Node.js) - **keychain.ts** — Stores identity mnemonics in the OS keychain (macOS Keychain / Linux libsecret) for security ## Upgrade Tell the agent "upgrade keychat" in any chat, or manually: ```bash openclaw plugins install @keychat-io/keychat@latest openclaw gateway restart ``` ## Connect After install, the user can add the agent as a Keychat contact: 1. Open the [Keychat app](https://keychat.io) → tap **Add Contact** 2. Scan the QR code, or paste the agent's npub 3. The agent automatically accepts and establishes an encrypted session The user can also ask the agent "what's my Keychat ID" at any time to get the npub, link, and QR code.
