About

NanoClaw is an AI assistant that runs agents inside separate Linux containers, so they only see what is explicitly mounted. The author built it as a codebase small enough to read, with one process and a few source files, as an alternative to the much larger OpenClaw. A setup script installs the dependencies, registers an Anthropic credential and pairs a first channel such as Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, iMessage or a local CLI. On Slack, each agent gets its own app, bot identity, container and memory.

Use cases: personal-assistant, team-chat, agent-memory
