OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork are three of the most powerful AI tools available to developers right now. The installation process is exactly where most people quietly give up. We handle everything — one session, all three tools, working correctly on your machine.
Sound Familiar?
The documentation looks straightforward. Then reality sets in.
Everyone says it's a game-changer. You download it and open the docs.
Fine. You update Node. Now something else breaks. Your existing projects don't run anymore.
You've got 14 tabs open, two conflicting solutions, and you've run 30 commands you don't fully understand.
The install completed but half the features don't respond and the API keeps timing out. You're not sure why.
You tell yourself you'll fix it this weekend. That was six weeks ago.
Not debugging them. Not reading documentation. Actually using them on real work — because we'll have set everything up correctly while you watch.
Configure & checkout →No commitment until we scope and confirm it's right for you.
What We Set Up
These aren't gimmicks. They are genuinely the tools that serious developers are building their workflows around right now.
A powerful open-source AI framework that runs models locally on your machine — no cloud dependency, no subscription, no data leaving your environment. Full control from day one.
Anthropic's terminal-based AI coding assistant. It reads your entire codebase, understands context, writes and refactors code, and answers questions about your project — right from the command line.
Anthropic's collaborative AI workspace — comparable to OpenClaw in scope but built for team and project-level integration. Shared context, persistent workflows, and AI that understands your project over time.
What You Walk Away With
We don't hand you a half-configured environment and wish you luck. Here's exactly what you have when we're done.
This is what the end of a No Retreat AI setup session looks like. Every green check is a tool that's been installed, configured, and tested on your actual machine before we call it done.
Client Results
"I'd been trying to get Claude Code working for three weeks. I had a broken install I was afraid to touch. Two hours with No Retreat AI and I was running it on a real project the same afternoon. I wish I'd called sooner."
"I'm not a developer — I run operations for a small firm. They set up all three tools, explained what each one does in plain language, and walked me through using them. I actually understand what I have now. That part alone was worth it."
"My team was spending two days onboarding every new developer with these tools. One session with No Retreat AI, proper setup, written docs — we've cut that to an hour and nothing breaks anymore."
Full Scope
Every tool is set up completely. Nothing is left half-configured or "good enough."
Also included across all tiers: a written summary of everything installed — exact versions, config file locations, and step-by-step instructions for keeping your tools up to date. You'll never be stuck wondering what you have.
Pricing
You know the price before we start. If your setup hits a complication we didn't anticipate, that's our problem — not yours.
Pick one — OpenClaw, Claude Code, or Claude Cowork. Fully installed, configured, tested, and walked through on your actual machine.
Pick any two. Set up together in one session, cross-configured so they work alongside each other from day one.
All three. OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork — fully configured and integrated in a single session. The complete AI developer stack.
Pick how many tools we install and whether you want ongoing maintenance. You’ll review everything on Stripe’s checkout page before you pay.
Need Business pricing (teams, multiple machines, tighter SLAs)? Contact us — monthly and annual rates are quoted to scope.
🔒 Payments processed by Stripe. We never see your card number.
A tool update, an OS conflict, a configuration that stops working after a restart — if any of the tools we set up stop working within 14 days, we come back and fix it at no additional charge. No debates about what counts. If you contact us and it's broken, we fix it. That's the deal.
Common Questions
Not for all of them. Claude Code and Claude Cowork are genuinely useful to anyone who works with or around code — project managers, operations leads, non-technical founders. OpenClaw is more technically oriented. During our scoping call, we'll tell you honestly which tools match where you actually are. We'd rather talk you out of a tool that doesn't fit than take your money for something you won't use.
macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), Windows 10/11, and the major Linux distributions — Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and most Debian-based systems. Some older OS versions have edge cases. We'll confirm full compatibility before you pay anything.
We run a video call with screen sharing. You stay in control of your machine throughout — we guide each step, and you're the one running every command. You watch the whole process. If you'd rather do it fully hands-on yourself with us talking you through it live, that works too. Either way, nothing happens on your machine without you seeing it.
Claude Code and Claude Cowork require an Anthropic API key. The billing is usage-based — typically very low for individual developers, usually a few dollars a month at normal usage. OpenClaw runs local models with no ongoing cost, though it can optionally connect to external APIs. We'll walk you through the realistic cost picture for your specific usage during scoping.
Single tool: 45–60 minutes. Any two: 75–90 minutes. Complete suite of all three: around 2 hours. That includes installation, configuration, testing, and the walkthrough. We build the walkthrough into the session, not after — so you're not staring at a screen while we type.
That's the most common situation we walk into. Before we install anything, we do an environment audit — we look at what's there, what's broken, and what needs to come out. A failed previous install is not your problem to clean up before you contact us. We handle it as part of the session.
One session. Everything working. You walk away ready to build — not ready to debug.

What You’re Responsible For
Our fee covers professional installation and configuration only. Same reading size as the rest of the page — not fine print you need a magnifier for.
We provide installation, configuration, and setup for the tools you buy. The following are separate and are always your responsibility:
• Computer hardware — you need a machine that meets the workload. Our recommendation is below.
• AI API keys and usage fees — Claude Code and Claude Cowork use Anthropic’s API. Usage is billed by Anthropic; we don’t bill for API usage and we don’t mark it up.
• Software licenses or subscriptions — any third-party apps or services your setup requires are on your tab.
Not sure what you need? Contact us before you pay — we’ll tell you straight.
For solid performance running OpenClaw’s local models alongside Claude Code and Claude Cowork, we recommend at least:
Buy the Mac mini from Apple or any retailer you trust — we don’t sell hardware and we’re not affiliated with Apple. Windows and Linux can work too; we cover OS-specific caveats elsewhere on this page.
