A Piece of Pi: Embedding The OpenClaw Coding Agent In Your Product — Matthias Luebken, Tavon

AI Engineer · Beginner ·🤖 AI Agents & Automation ·1w ago
OpenClaw feels like it's learning: it discovers capabilities, stitches tools together, builds solutions it wasn't explicitly taught. The reality is simpler — it's an LLM calling tools in a loop, powered by Pi, a minimal coding agent SDK. This talk is about what you can build once you understand that. Matthias Luebken walks through embedding Pi in a real product: a B2B sales pipeline where incoming RFP emails route to customer-specific agent sessions, CLIs expose CRM and ERP data in a form the agent can use cleanly, and the only output a human sees is a draft in their inbox. The architectural principle running through it: don't fight the coding agent, make things easy for it. Design your data access and tool interfaces so the agent can work naturally rather than having to compensate for complexity. Speaker info: - https://x.com/luebken -https://github.com/luebken
