Coding agents will (normally?) always be more efficient than a system agent like OpenClaw for coding
OpenClaw uses the Pi agent SDK for coding
OpenClaw is more like a general practitioner than a neurosurgery specialist, to make a comparison
Warning : Anthropic’s terms of use do not allow their models to be used on Openclaw, at the risk of being banned
