Ollama with openclaw local installation needs anthropic api key?
I managed to install ollama and launch openclaw with it. I get messages (mostly it tries to generate a TTS and respond with that but i turned that off) but now it doesnt act as "openclaw" it just thinks its the base model qwen2.5:7b.
i want it to act like openclaw and generated a new auth-profiles.json but it wont run anything because it give me the following error:
