What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an advanced open source AI agent framework that gives AI full computer control with sophisticated memory, multi-agent coordination, and extensible skills.

Formerly known as Clawdbot/MoltBot, OpenClaw represents the next evolution in agentic AI systems. It can understand its environment, take autonomous actions, spawn sub-agents for complex tasks, and maintain persistent context across sessions.

  • Full computer control
  • Multi-agent coordination
  • Persistent structured memory
  • Model-agnostic (Claude, GPT, Gemini)

Core Architecture

Structured Memory System

  • AGENTS.md: Operating instructions
  • memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md: Daily logs
  • MEMORY.md: Long-term facts
  • SOUL.md: Personality definition
  • IDENTITY.md: Agent persona

Skills & Heartbeats

Extensible skills system with community plugins via ClawHub. Cron-based heartbeats for scheduled autonomous tasks that minimize compute costs.

Key Capabilities

Autonomous Computer Control

OpenClaw can read your screen, execute commands, manage files, and interact with applications just like a human user.

Multi-Agent Coordination

Spawn specialized sub-agents that communicate, share context, and collaborate on complex workflows.

Persistent Learning

Builds deep context about your preferences, projects, and communication style over time.

Model Agnostic

Works with Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, or any OpenAI-compatible model.

ClawHub Ecosystem

Rich library of community-built skills for Gmail, Calendar, Spotify, Telegram, and hundreds more.

Secure Deployment

Recommended VPS deployment with Docker for isolated, secure operation.

Real-World Examples

Personal Assistant

"Check my calendar and find a free slot this week." "Draft a reply to that email from my boss." "Research flights to Tokyo."

Proactive Automation

Cron-scheduled tasks like court reservations, daily summaries, or monitoring systems that run autonomously.
