ZeroClaw agent

ZeroClaw is a fully autonomous AI agent with:

  • Built-in tools including web search, code execution, file management, and browser
  • Memory backed by SQLite, Markdown, or no-memory backends
  • Autonomy levels configurable from supervised to fully autonomous
  • Cron support for scheduled tasks via native cron jobs

Vercel Sandbox provider

Firecracker microVMs with sub-second cold start, filesystem snapshots, and configurable network policies.

Workspace files

The starter preset includes three .md files that override the base templates:

FilePurpose
AGENTS.mdOperating instructions. Session startup routine, memory system, safety rules, tool usage
SOUL.mdAgent personality. Communication style, boundaries, continuity guidance
TOOLS.mdTool reference. Local notes and built-in tool descriptions

These are merged with the base templates from @clawrun/agent (which provide BOOTSTRAP.md, IDENTITY.md, USER.md, and others). The preset's versions take priority when filenames overlap.

Channel support

The starter preset supports all 9 channel adapters out of the box:

Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, DingTalk, Lark, LinQ, Matrix, QQ
