Claw Code

A Rust coding-agent CLI with multi-provider support, local tooling, and Claw branding.

Important

This fork tracks the newer Rust workspace shape from upstream while preserving the local multi-provider stack, claw branding, richer hook and permission features, and plugin-aware runtime behavior.

What this fork adds

• Multi-provider model access through the Rust api crate, including Claude-compatible, Grok, and OpenAI-compatible flows
• claw-specific branding and config paths such as the claw binary, CLAW_* variables, and .claw project files
• Local runtime extensions for permission rules, hook progress and abort handling, auto-compaction, and plugin lifecycle management
• The newer upstream workspace surface, including the lsp and server crates plus the expanded CLI and slash-command layers

Quick Start

cd rust
cargo build --release

./target/release/claw
./target/release/claw prompt "explain this codebase"
./target/release/claw --model sonnet prompt "review the latest changes"

OAuth login is also available:

./target/release/claw login
