How it works

You simply message instructions to your Mac using your phone.
Claude handles the rest locally on your device in a secure sandbox, but keep in mind, your Mac needs to stay awake and online for this to work.

Getting started

To try it out, install Claude Desktop on your Mac and pair it with the mobile app using a QR code.

OpenClaw is open source though, so if you're into tinkering, that might be more up your alley.
