Hi there,
Is it possible to connect open clw to the context chat backend? So it could sniffs through what!s already generated there.
Or you couldn’t do that and I’m asking a stupid question.
If so, what would be the best way to give acces to my Nextcloud data to openclaw?
Thanks!
Hi!
Context chat access is exposed via an MCP server, like some other nextcloud components, which is part of the context_agent app created by Nextcloud GmbH: See App: Context Agent (context_agent) — Nextcloud latest Administration Manual latest documentation
Other people may also have created MCP servers for nextcloud, there is also Astrolabe, which is also a nextcloud mcp server I believe.
Cheers
Since this thread came up when connecting external agents to Nextcloud data: there is now a dedicated MCP-only ExApp in the App Store, MCP Connector (disclosure: I am the author).
Difference to handing an agent your credentials: it is its own OAuth 2.1 authorization server, so a client like Claude or a self-hosted agent goes through a consent flow and never sees a password. Every request runs under the identity of the signed-in user, and the tool surface is curated and read-first (files, calendar, notes, Deck, contacts, unified search). Connections are visible and revocable under Settings, Security.
