A local proxy that detects provider policy blocks and censorship in real time and reroutes OpenClaw LLM requests to an alternative provider before the user sees a failure
Anthropic banned Claude subscriptions for OpenClaw on April 4, 2026, leaving thousands of users facing 50x cost increases overnight. Reports followed that Claude may also be censoring OpenClaw-related prompts. Existing routers like OpenRouter and LiteLLM handle cost-based routing and model failover, but none detect policy-level blocks (subscription enforcement, topic censorship, rate-limit discrimination against agent traffic) and reroute specifically around them. This proxy sits between OpenClaw and any LLM provider, fingerprints policy failures distinct from normal errors, and switches providers within the same conversation turn so the agent never stalls.

Gap Assessment
4 tools exist (OpenRouter, LiteLLM, ClawRouter, GlueClaw) but gaps remain: No detection of policy blocks, topic censorship, or agent-traffic discrimination. Routes on cost and availability, not on provider policy state.; Failover triggers on HTTP errors only. No policy-block fingerprinting, no censorship detection, no proactive canary testing of provider behavior..

Competitive LandscapeFREE
| Product | Does | Missing |
|---|---|---|
| OpenRouter | Universal API gateway routing to 500+ models with cost-based routing and provider-level failover | No detection of policy blocks, topic censorship, or agent-traffic discrimination. Routes on cost and availability, not on provider policy state. |
| LiteLLM | Open-source self-hosted LLM proxy with 100+ provider support, cost tracking, spend limits, and automatic failover | Failover triggers on HTTP errors only. No policy-block fingerprinting, no censorship detection, no proactive canary testing of provider behavior. |
| ClawRouter | Agent-native LLM router for OpenClaw with 41+ models, sub-millisecond routing, and crypto payments | Optimized for latency and cost routing. No policy-awareness layer, no censorship detection, no billing-enforcement classification. |
| GlueClaw | Patches OpenClaw to route through Claude Code MCP loopback, restoring Max subscription access | Single-provider workaround only (Claude). Breaks when Anthropic patches the loopback. No multi-provider failover or policy detection. |
