shell

agentsea                              # Interactive picker
agentsea ls                            # List your deployments

After install — what to do next

Once AgentSea finishes provisioning OpenClaw on DigitalOcean, here's how to get the most from your agent.

Open the Control UI — AgentSea starts the gateway and opens it in your browser (SSH tunnel on cloud servers).
Chat in the terminal TUI (openclaw tui) or use the web Control UI — both talk to the same agent.
Connect messaging channels like Telegram, WhatsApp, or Discord through the gateway. Channels overview
Your heartbeat model keeps the agent responsive between messages — already configured by AgentSea.
Reconnect anytime with agentsea connect or agentsea list. OpenClaw docs

Prefer not to install the CLI?

Run this one-liner instead — no global install required. It downloads and runs the bootstrap script for OpenClaw on DigitalOcean.
