A command that starts NanoClaw, an interactive AI assistant in a terminal. It keeps conversation history in named Markdown session files and can load selected skill context.

Use it to start a persistent agent session, switch between sessions, view or clear history, and optionally load specified skills.

It lets you resume an assistant conversation across restarts instead of losing the previous exchange.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Per session 23 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

When invoked 464 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00023	$0.00464
Opus 5	$0.00012	$0.00232
Sonnet 5	$0.00005	$0.00093
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00046

Security

Grade A, and why

claw scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Claw Command

Start an interactive AI agent session that persists conversation history to disk and optionally loads ECC skill context.

Usage

node scripts/claw.js

Or via npm:

npm run claw

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
`CLAW_SESSION`	`default`	Session name (alphanumeric + hyphens)
`CLAW_SKILLS`	(empty)	Comma-separated skill names to load as system context

REPL Commands

Inside the REPL, type these commands directly at the prompt:

/clear      Clear current session history
/history    Print full conversation history
/sessions   List all saved sessions
/help       Show available commands
exit        Quit the REPL

How It Works

Reads CLAW_SESSION env var to select a named session (default: default)
Loads conversation history from ~/.claude/claw/{session}.md
Optionally loads ECC skill context from CLAW_SKILLS env var
Enters a blocking prompt loop — each user message is sent to claude -p with full history
Responses are appended to the session file for persistence across restarts

Session Storage

Sessions are stored as Markdown files in ~/.claude/claw/:

~/.claude/claw/default.md
~/.claude/claw/my-project.md

Each turn is formatted as:

### [2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z] User
What does this function do?
---
### [2025-01-15T10:30:05.000Z] Assistant
This function calculates...
---

Examples

# Start default session
node scripts/claw.js

# Named session
CLAW_SESSION=my-project node scripts/claw.js

# With skill context
CLAW_SKILLS=tdd-workflow,security-review node scripts/claw.js

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
