OpenClaw with LM Studio
I've installed OpenClaw 2026.2.15 and LM Studio on a Mac. I can talk to the model fine (minimax/minimax-m2.5) with curl on localhost. OpenClaw's verify step works fine, but the gateway doesn't seem to be able to connect.
I selected "Custom provider" with an OpenAI compatible endpoint. No skills or hooks or chat interface yet. The web app will start, but the debug window in LM Studio shows no messages ever arrive after the verification step.
Any tips about how I can get this working would be appreciated!
