Local Ollama is supported in the standard onboarding flow. Local vLLM remains experimental, and local host-routed inference on macOS still depends on OpenShell host-routing support in addition to the local service itself being reachable on the host.

## Host-Side State and Config

NemoClaw keeps its operator-facing state on the host rather than inside the sandbox.
These are the main files new users usually need to locate:

| Path | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `~/.nemoclaw/credentials.json` | Provider credentials saved during onboarding |
| `~/.nemoclaw/sandboxes.json` | Registered sandbox metadata, including the default sandbox selection |
| `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` | Host OpenClaw configuration that NemoClaw snapshots or restores during migration flows |

Common environment variables for optional services and local access include `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`, `ALLOWED_CHAT_IDS`, and `CHAT_UI_URL`.
For normal sandbox setup and reconfiguration, prefer `nemoclaw onboard` over editing these files by hand.
