Lead
Find the right OpenClaw variant, or the tool beside it.
Claw News tracks OpenClaw variants, companion apps, evaluation tooling and adjacent agent projects. Every entry carries a source link, a maturity label and the caveat that keeps it in, or out of, the count.
Editorial brief
Counts are conservative by design.
- Primary variants
- Projects counted as part of the OpenClaw ecosystem, with relationship and evidence expectations.
- Adjacent tools
- Useful companion, evaluation or developer tooling that supports the ecosystem without becoming a variant.
- Watchlist candidates
- Promising names stay visible while source, license, release or integration caveats remain unresolved.
§1
Index of verified variants
six of nineteen shown; each row says why it is countedOpenClaw baseline
Reference ecosystem for gateway, skills, agents and interoperability conventions.
Dashboard →NemoClaw
Enterprise-adjacent variant kept under the same evidence policy as smaller projects.
Compare →NanoClaw
Container and multi-language variant family surfaced through dashboard and comparison views.
Dashboard →Hermes Agent
Adjacent community agent tracked in the ecosystem data and comparison context.

Primary variants are counted separately from adjacent tooling, companion apps, inspired projects and watchlist candidates.

Agent Sessions
macOS session browser for agent histories with OpenClaw and Hermes support.
- MIT license
- release assets present
- tests and docs present
- project site present
- OpenClaw/Hermes history support
Compatible agent
nanobot
High-attention lightweight personal AI agent. Published as adjacent, not a core OpenClaw variant, because the evidence is compatibility and ecosystem overlap.
- MIT license
- active public source
- OpenClaw topic present
- ClawHub support
- OpenClaw-style skill metadata
IoT hardware agent
ESP-Claw
Espressif's OpenClaw-inspired Chat Coding framework for ESP32-class IoT devices. Published as adjacent hardware-agent context, not a core OpenClaw fork.
- Apache-2.0 license
- active Espressif source
- OpenClaw-inspired README
- reimplemented in C
- project docs and flashing path
Composio variant
secure-openclaw
Composio-maintained OpenClaw-like 24x7 assistant with messaging, memory, reminders and 500+ app integrations. Published with a caveat: integration-focused variant, not the upstream baseline.
- MIT license
- OpenClaw topics
- 1,204 stars / 165 forks
- messaging platforms
- Composio integrations
Composio fork
openclaw-composio
Companion OpenClaw fork with integrated Composio plugin for tool authentication and credential handling. Bundled as Composio ecosystem context to avoid double counting.
- MIT license
- explicit OpenClaw fork
- Composio auth plugin
- credential handling focus
- companion to secure-openclaw
Skills infrastructure
skillshare
Cross-tool skill sync and sharing for Codex, Claude Code, OpenClaw and other AI CLI tools. Published as ecosystem infrastructure, not a variant.
- MIT license
- active 2026-06-11
- OpenClaw topic
- skills-management focus
- team sharing
§3 · Comparing options
Side by side, with the caveats attached
Maturity, activity and integration views for every published entry, so a decision rests on evidence rather than on star counts.
This page highlights a selection of published adjacent and variant-context entries. Browse the full source-backed set in the comparison tool; unresolved candidates stay on the watchlist until caveats are resolved.

AIRIClaw
Active TypeScript source references gateway and skill concepts; no license or release was detected.

S3pia
MIT-licensed active project; evidence supports inspiration or adjacency rather than direct integration.

Orkas
Active local-first multi-agent desktop client with OpenClaw/Hermes topics; adjacent orchestration, not a direct variant.

OpenBiliClaw
Active private content-discovery agent; watch only, because the current evidence is content discovery rather than OpenClaw developer tooling.

Read the classification rulesSource first
Public source, license, release history, docs or integration evidence are checked before publication.
Relationship is labeled
Entries are separated as primary variants, adjacent tools, companion apps, inspired projects or exclusions.
Caveats stay visible
Missing source, license, releases or direct integration evidence remain visible on the entry.
Counts are conservative
Adjacent tools and watchlist candidates do not inflate primary variant counts.
