Gate News message, April 22 — OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger clarified the status of Claude CLI support following claims that Anthropic had lifted restrictions on the tool. According to reports, Anthropic’s Claude Code lead Boris Cherny publicly stated on X that CLI usage was permitted, prompting OpenClaw to re-enable support and disable high token-consumption features like heartbeat monitoring. However, Steinberger revealed that Anthropic’s servers continue to block OpenClaw by fingerprinting system prompts—rejecting calls even as the oral permission stands.
OpenClaw integrates Claude Code by invoking the official Claude CLI’s one-time non-interactive mode (claude -p), using either API keys or Pro/Max/Team subscription credits depending on local login status. Anthropic’s blocking mechanism targets OpenClaw specifically through server-side system prompt recognition rather than disabling the CLI command itself. While Steinberger noted that simple renaming could bypass the classifier, he declined to engage in this “cat-and-mouse game.”
OpenClaw removed Claude CLI from default onboarding in version 2026.4.5, then restored it in version 2026.4.7 with additional environment variable cleanup and permission restrictions. The latest documentation claiming renewed permission corresponds to the 2026.4.7 update.
