So is the open claw free or is it a fee each month? I wanna have it running 24/7 and working on my socials, website and many other things. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

I've been wrestling back and forth with Openclaw for over a week. I haven't got ANY thing else done. Its so frustrating. I have this up on a VPS (DigitalOcean). I did a number of recommended security hardening procedures, had it build some things to improve its memory capabilities, and then had it start creating team members. Sounds great.... but this thing has crashed a few dozen times, keeps having all kinds of errors, can't fix itself. Can someone help me 1:1 get this damn thing set up properly? Or help me trouble shoot my current configuration?

Is it currently possible to connect Claude Desktop directly to Shopify so that Claude can make changes to the store (for example creating pages, editing content, or updating theme files)? My goal is to use Claude Desktop as a kind of development assistant where I can prompt it to roll out new pages or content and have those changes pushed directly to Shopify without manually going into the Shopify admin each time. For example, I’d like to create pages or update sections from Claude and have them automatically published to Shopify via an integration or API. Is this possible yet, and if so what setup is required?
