Good for

Run AI agents securely, each in its own Linux container with filesystem isolation
Connect Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, iMessage or a local CLI to chat
Spawn multiple agents from chat, each with its own bot identity, container and memory, plus scheduled jobs

Getting started

Run git clone https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw.git nanoclaw-v2 and cd into it
Run bash nanoclaw.sh; it installs Node, pnpm and Docker if missing, sets up a credential gateway and pairs your first channel
To migrate from v1, use bash migrate-v2.sh instead

Before you install

Built on Anthropic's Agents SDK with container isolation as the security core; requires Docker. Run the script directly, not from inside a Claude session.
