how to connect your r1 to OpenClaw (formerly Moltbot/Clawdbot)

FYI If you started this journey before the 29th of January 2026: OpenClaw Bug Enables One-Click Remote Code Execution via Malicious Link (patched in: 2026.1.29).

Hi

After installing Openclaw successfully. I want to generate a QR code for my Rabbit R1. Kindly advise on this issue. Screenshot attached.

Hi all. I have the same problem. I did as Simon suggested, restarted the gateway, and scanned the code again with the same result. Should I reinstall it as Andrew did? I’m on PC.

Well, the QR code timed out so I tried reinstalling and I get the same result: “gateway unreachable”. Everything on my PC side works. I can connect with Telegram.

Weird, ok, I got it to work. I had to restart my r1 to make the connection work…

I got that too. Have you got that fixed on your side?

Hi community, so I was able to reverse-enginner the OpenClaw flow somewhat and updated my ZeroClaw instance to be able to talk to R1 using OpenClaw implementation, but I was wondering if there is actually some documentation available from Rabbit on the protocol between R1 and OpenClaw, which could be used to enable the same integration with other *Claw variants?
