Catclaw

**English** | [繁體中文](README.zh-TW.md)

CatClaw is a Rust daemon that turns your **Claude Code subscription** into a personal AI assistant accessible from Discord, Telegram, Slack, and a beautiful terminal UI. Inspired by OpenClaw, built from scratch in Rust for performance, reliability, and full Anthropic compliance.

Why CatClaw?

• Use your Claude Code subscription — no API keys, no surprise bills. CatClaw spawns claude -p subprocesses that use your existing Claude Code plan.
• Multi-agent — define multiple AI personas (main assistant, research expert, code reviewer), each with their own personality, memory, and tool permissions.
• Multi-channel — talk to your agents from Discord, Telegram, Slack, or the built-in TUI. All channels share the same session and memory system.
• Tool approval system — require user confirmation before agents execute sensitive tools (Bash, Edit, etc.) with inline approval UI in TUI and Discord/Telegram/Slack buttons.
• Stateless gateway — all state persisted to SQLite. Kill the daemon anytime, restart, and everything picks up where it left off.
• Beautiful TUI — Catppuccin Mocha themed terminal interface with 8 panels for managing everything.
