Welcome to OpenClaw Ground Control!

[max-geller]

👋 Welcome to Ground Control

Ground Control is a collection of lightweight, terminal-first tools for cost-conscious OpenClaw enthusiasts. If you're running agents on a VPS, a homelab, or any resource-limited environment — you're in the right place.

We're building the mission operations layer that the OpenClaw ecosystem is missing: cost monitoring, task dispatch, and agent configuration — all in the terminal, all designed to minimize token overhead.

The tools:

🛰️ openclaw-relay — Cloudflare Worker that collects cost/usage data from Anthropic and OpenAI
📡 openclaw-telemetry — Cost monitoring and optimization TUI
📋 openclaw-dispatch — Task management for agents and humans

What this Discussions space is for:

• Introductions — Tell us about your setup. What VPS are you on? What agents are you running? What's your monthly token budget? We're curious.
• Ideas & proposals — Have a tool idea that fits the Ground Control philosophy? Float it here before writing code.
• Questions — Stuck on setup? Not sure how something works? Ask here. No question is too basic.
• Show & tell — Got Ground Control running on something interesting? Screenshot it. We want to see.
• Cost-saving wins — Found a way to cut your token spend using these tools? Share it. That's the whole point.

The ground rules:

1. Be kind. This is a hobby project. We're all here because we love this stuff.
2. Think lightweight. If your suggestion involves spinning up Kubernetes, you may be in the wrong room.
3. Share what you learn. The best part of open source is the collective knowledge.

Pull up a chair. We saved you a seat at the console.
