15 Agents Unified in One Native Instance

15 Agents Unified in One Native Instance

One Instance, Fifteen Souls

After the Docker-to-native migration, T440's native OpenClaw instance now hosts 15 agents covering learning, health, project management, investment, life management, and more.

9 Agents Working Normally

learning, health, docomo-pj, real-estate, investment, nobdata-pj, royal-pj, life, and flect-pj all responding correctly. Each has its own Telegram Bot Token and system prompt while sharing a single OpenClaw Gateway process. One engine, multiple personalities.

3 Agents with 401 Issues

Three agents returning 401 Unauthorized — likely expired tokens, config errors, or BotFather changes. Straightforward troubleshooting.

Architecture Transformation

Before (Docker): 5 containers × independent OpenClaw processes = 5x process overhead, 5 config sets to maintain

Now (Native): SystemD service → 1 Gateway → 15 agents. One process, one config, one log set.

SystemD Management

systemctl status openclaw-gateway
systemctl restart openclaw-gateway
journalctl -u openclaw-gateway -f
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

No Docker abstraction layers. Direct process management — fast startup, minimal overhead.

Resource Utilization

T440 (20-core Xeon, 62GB RAM) handles 15 agents effortlessly. Memory usage dropped 80% going from 5 Gateway processes to 1.

Summary

15 agents, 1 instance, 1 process. Architecture isn't better when more complex — it's best when just right. Simple infrastructure, rich applications — that's the direction.
