What's the best AI model for OpenClaw?

There's a question we all ask when setting up @OpenClaw: which model should I actually use?

What are your suggestions? Any preferences?

The "best" model definitely depends on your workflows and priorities. High success rate, fast completions, or cost efficient? For coding tasks, there's this thread [1] suggesting @Claude by Anthropic, @Gemini, and @OpenAI's GPT models, while open-weight models like @MiniMax are bridging the gap with every release. [2]

Curious what the community recommends for @OpenClaw?

Note: The poll is inspired by the current leaderboard on pinchbench.com by @KiloClaw
