OpenPaw

Turn Claude Code into a personal assistant.

---

What is OpenPaw?

[Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) is powerful, but out of the box it only knows how to code. OpenPaw turns it into a full personal assistant — one that reads your email, plays your music, controls your lights, manages your calendar, tracks your packages, and remembers what you told it last week.

Run one command and OpenPaw:

• Installs 38 skills across email, calendar, Spotify, smart home, Slack, GitHub, Obsidian, and more
• Sets up the CLI tools each skill needs (via Homebrew, npm, or pip) and walks you through auth
• Gives Claude an identity — a name, personality, and persistent memory across sessions
• Configures permissions and safety hooks so Claude can act autonomously without doing anything dangerous
• Adds a Telegram bridge so you can talk to Claude from your phone
• Includes a task dashboard — a local kanban board with drag-and-drop and 3 themes
• Enables smart scheduling — recurring tasks with per-run and daily cost caps so nothing runs away
• Can paw-style Claude Code itself — branded colors, spinners, input highlighting, and chat styling via openpaw theme

After setup, you just talk to Claude:

"Check my email and summarize anything urgent"
"Play lo-fi beats on Spotify"
"Turn the bedroom lights to 20%"
"What's on my calendar tomorrow?"
"Add milk to my reminders"
"Go to Hacker News and summarize the top 5 posts"

Claude figures out which skill to use. No special syntax needed.

**No daemon, no cloud, no subscriptions.** OpenPaw runs once, writes config, and gets out of the way. Everything runs locally through your existing Claude Code subscription.
