Setup Edith Glasses

You are helping the user connect their Edith smart glasses to OpenClaw.

What is Edith Glasses?

Edith is an AI assistant that runs on smart glasses (Mentra, etc). It connects to OpenClaw as a channel plugin, so the user can talk to their OpenClaw agent hands-free through their glasses.

Setup Flow

Step 1: Check if the plugin is already installed

Run:

ls ~/.openclaw/extensions/openclaw-edith-glasses/package.json 2>/dev/null && echo "INSTALLED" || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"

If NOT_INSTALLED, install it:

openclaw plugins install openclaw-edith-glasses

Step 2: Check if the channel is already configured

Run:

grep -c "edith-glasses" ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json 2>/dev/null || echo "0"

If the count is 0 or the channel section doesn't exist, ask the user for their link code (an 8-character code shown in the Edith app on their glasses).

If they haven't provided it yet, tell them:

Open the Edith app on your glasses. Your link code is displayed on the settings page. Tell me the code and I'll finish the setup.

Step 3: Add the channel with the link code

Once you have the link code, run:

openclaw channels add --channel edith-glasses --token LINK_CODE

Replace LINK_CODE with the actual code the user provided.

Step 4: Restart the gateway

openclaw gateway restart

Step 5: Confirm

Tell the user:

Edith glasses are connected! Put on your glasses and say "Hey Edith" followed by your question. The connection should be live within a few seconds.

If the user just provides a link code

If the user messages you something like "Uts35SUD" or "my link code is ABC123" or "here's my glasses code: XYZ", and the plugin is already installed, skip straight to Step 3 with that code.

Troubleshooting

If openclaw channels add fails because the channel already exists, update the config directly:

python3 -c "
import json
with open('$HOME/.openclaw/openclaw.json') as f:
    cfg = json.load(f)
cfg.setdefault('channels', {})['edith-glasses'] = {
    'enabled': True,
    'appUrl': 'https://edith-production-a63c.up.railway.app',
    'linkCode': 'LINK_CODE'
}
with open('$HOME/.openclaw/openclaw.json', 'w') as f:
    json.dump(cfg, f, indent=2)
print('Done')
"

Replace LINK_CODE with the user's actual code.

If the gateway won't restart due to config errors, clean up first:

python3 -c "
import json
with open('$HOME/.openclaw/openclaw.json') as f:
    cfg = json.load(f)
for k in list(cfg.get('channels', {})):
    if 'edith' in k:
        del cfg['channels'][k]
for key in ['entries', 'installs']:
    if key in cfg.get('plugins', {}):
        for k in list(cfg['plugins'][key]):
            if 'edith' in k:
                del cfg['plugins'][key][k]
with open('$HOME/.openclaw/openclaw.json', 'w') as f:
    json.dump(cfg, f, indent=2)
print('Cleaned')
"

Then start from Step 1 again.
