Lossless Claw helps OpenClaw keep older chat details

Lossless Claw helps OpenClaw keep older chat details

Lossless Claw is an open-source plugin for OpenClaw. It saves old messages, turns them into summaries, and lets the agent look them up later. This can help long-running AI agents stay within token limits and use cheaper summary models.

Key points

  • It stores every original message in a database instead of simply dropping old chat history.
  • It builds summaries of older messages so the active conversation stays smaller.
  • The agent can search and reopen older details when needed.
  • It is most useful if you already use OpenClaw; it is not a general tool for every AI agent setup.
