nano---Openclaw: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

nano---Openclaw CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ShinyStar307/nano---Openclaw. It costs 868 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of nanoclaw-telegram CLAUDE.md, MIT.

Project instructions for NanoClaw, a personal assistant that routes messages from services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, and Gmail to agents running in isolated containers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on NanoClaw's message routing, channel registration, task scheduling, database, containers, or group-specific memory.
Why use it?
They give developers a quick map of the system, its important files, and how channels, storage, scheduling, and agent containers fit together.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md.

This is ShinyStar307/nano---Openclaw's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on nano---Openclaw itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything nano---Openclaw configures →

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

nano---Openclaw CLAUDE.md 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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

89% identical to nanoclaw-telegram CLAUDE.md — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 76 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

NanoClaw

Personal Claude assistant. See README.md for philosophy and setup. See docs/REQUIREMENTS.md for architecture decisions.

Quick Context

Single Node.js process with skill-based channel system. Channels (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Gmail) are skills that self-register at startup. Messages route to Claude Agent SDK running in containers (Linux VMs). Each group has isolated filesystem and memory.

Key Files

File Purpose
src/index.ts Orchestrator: state, message loop, agent invocation
src/channels/registry.ts Channel registry (self-registration at startup)
src/ipc.ts IPC watcher and task processing
src/router.ts Message formatting and outbound routing
src/config.ts Trigger pattern, paths, intervals
src/container-runner.ts Spawns agent containers with mounts
src/task-scheduler.ts Runs scheduled tasks
src/db.ts SQLite operations
groups/{name}/CLAUDE.md Per-group memory (isolated)
container/skills/ Skills loaded inside agent containers (browser, status, formatting)

Skills

Four types of skills exist in NanoClaw. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full taxonomy and guidelines.

  • Feature skills — merge a skill/* branch to add capabilities (e.g. /add-telegram, /add-slack)
  • Utility skills — ship code files alongside SKILL.md (e.g. /claw)
  • Operational skills — instruction-only workflows, always on main (e.g. /setup, /debug)
  • Container skills — loaded inside agent containers at runtime (container/skills/)
Skill When to Use
/setup First-time installation, authentication, service configuration
/customize Adding channels, integrations, changing behavior
/debug Container issues, logs, troubleshooting
/update-nanoclaw Bring upstream NanoClaw updates into a customized install
/qodo-pr-resolver Fetch and fix Qodo PR review issues interactively or in batch
/get-qodo-rules Load org- and repo-level coding rules from Qodo before code tasks

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.
