Deploying Custom-Built Caddy as a Reverse Proxy for OpenClaw on macOS

This guide enables macOS developers running OpenClaw to build a custom Caddy reverse proxy with GeoIP filtering capabilities, providing fine-grained control over traffic routing and access policies without relying on pre-built binaries. Using xcaddy and MaxMind's geolocation database, users can create a secure, performant proxy layer tailored to their specific infrastructure needs. This hands-on approach is essential for teams requiring sophisticated regional restrictions and advanced traffic management in production OpenClaw deployments.
