How the connection works

Connect once. The agent acts.

Census bureau connects with an API key you provide once; it is encrypted at rest and never shipped inside the agent's pod. Everything runs through Molted's managed MCP layer, so there is no integration code to write and nothing to keep running.

01

The agent requests access

Your OpenClaw agent asks for Census bureau when a task needs it.

02

You approve the connection

Authorize Census bureau once (API key). Credentials are encrypted at rest and scoped to what you allow.

03

The agent acts

It reads and writes to Census bureau autonomously, inside your guardrails, with full audit and revocable access.
