Alibaba Cloud Linux 4 Agentic Edition (Agentic OS) is an agent-first operating system built on Alibaba Cloud Linux. Create an ECS instance and deploy Openclaw using natural language—all in minutes.
Step 1: Create an ECS instance
-
Go to the Instance Creation Page.
-
Region: Currently, only the China (Chengdu) region is supported.
-
Image: Select Alibaba Cloud Linux, then choose Alibaba Cloud Linux 4 LTS 64-bit Agentic Edition.
-
Select Assign Public IP (either an EIP or public bandwidth).
-
We recommend an instance with more than 2 GiB of memory. Configure the remaining settings as needed. Create a custom instance.
Step 2: Complete the initial setup
After you log in, Copilot Shell (cosh) starts automatically. On first use, you must configure model authorization. Use Aliyun Authentication for quick, zero-configuration setup. You can configure other methods in Manage Configurations.
Step 3: Start interacting
After setup, you can use natural language to interact with the system in cosh.
ANOLISA includes system-level Skills for operations, security hardening, and troubleshooting. With built-in security safeguards, use natural language in cosh to perform tasks like kernel upgrades, vulnerability patching, and performance tuning—no complex commands required.
Example 1: View distribution and hardware details
Input: view the system's distribution information and summarize the hardware details


Example 2: Install OpenClaw with one sentence
Input: help me install OpenClaw and configure DingTalk


Before you begin, create an internal enterprise application in the DingTalk Developer Console to get the AppKey and AppSecret, and obtain an API Key from the Model Studio console. Deploy Openclaw/Claude Code in one sentence.
Switch back to Bash
To switch from cosh to Bash, run:
/bash
In Bash, run exit or press Ctrl+D to return to cosh. Your session history is automatically restored.
