#### Zero-config autonomous AI agent

ZeroClaw is a zero-config autonomous AI agent. It wraps a native binary
runtime in a clean Node.js SDK and exposes an HTTP/WebSocket gateway for
chat and agentic tasks (<http://localhost:3000>).

Supports optional browser automation and multiple LLM backends via a
simple TOML config file.

LOCAL AI

Run 'zeroclaw.inference-snap' to detect a Canonical inference snap
(gemma4, gemma3, deepseek-r1, and others) and configure it as
ZeroClaw's active provider in one step — fully offline, no API key required.

SETUP

No configuration is required to start. The background gateway service
starts automatically the first time you run any zeroclaw command and is
managed as a standard systemd user unit:

systemctl --user status zeroclaw
systemctl --user stop zeroclaw

To connect a chat platform or configure a non-default LLM:

zeroclaw configure

SECURITY NOTE

This tool is capable of executing code, accessing files, and interacting
with external services on your behalf. Due to the nature of autonomous
AI agents, we recommend installing and running this snap inside an LXD
container as best practice. A container provides an extra layer of
confinement, limiting the agent's reach to the container environment
and reducing exposure to your host system and personal data.

lxc launch ubuntu:24.04 my-agent
lxc exec my-agent -- snap install --classic zeroclaw
