LightClaw

Self-hosted AI personal assistant — affordable, personalized, and ready to go.

简体中文 · English

---

LightClaw is an open-source, self-hosted AI personal assistant built with Python. Compared to similar projects, it focuses on three key differentiators: Cost-efficient — significantly lower token consumption; Personalized — built-in multi-layer memory system that learns your preferences over time; Ready to use — 6 deeply optimized scenes out of the box, zero-config to get started.

Chat with LightClaw through Feishu, QQ, WeChat or the built-in Web Dashboard. All capabilities are driven by an extensible Skills system and the MCP (Model Context Protocol).

✨ Highlights

	Feature	Description
💰	Cost-efficient	Smart multi-model routing dispatches cheap models for simple tasks, large models only when needed. Aggressive context trimming and memory compression slash token costs by an order of magnitude.
🧠	Memory System	Long-term memory extraction, user profiling, and conversation summaries — the assistant gets smarter the more you use it.
🎮	Built-in Scenes	6 production-ready scenes: WeChat Official Account operations, stock market analysis, news tracking, low-code development, AI video generation, and smart education.
🔌	Multi-channel	Feishu · QQ · DingTalk · Discord · Web Dashboard — one assistant across all your chat platforms.
🧩	Extensible Skills	5 built-in skills + community SkillHub marketplace + MCP protocol for unlimited tool integration.
🏠	Local-first	All data stays in ~/.lightclaw/. Supports fully offline mode with local LLMs (Ollama / LLaMA-CPP / MLX).

🏗️ Tech Stack

Layer	Technologies
Language	Python 3.11+
Agent Framework	LangChain + LangGraph (ReAct Agent)
API Server	FastAPI + Uvicorn
Frontend	React + TypeScript + Vite + Ant Design

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.11 – 3.13
• uv (recommended) or pip

1. Install

# macOS / Linux — one-line installer
curl -fsSL https://finnie-1258344699.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/install.sh | bash

After installation, open a new terminal or reload your shell:

source ~/.zshrc   # Zsh
# or
source ~/.bashrc  # Bash

2. Initialize

lightclaw init

The interactive wizard walks you through: language → LLM provider → API key → model selection.

3. Run

# Start the server
lightclaw run

# Bind to a custom host/port
lightclaw run --host 0.0.0.0 --port 80

# Or register as a system service (auto-start on boot)
lightclaw start --host 0.0.0.0 --port 80

Open your browser and start chatting!

🎮 Built-in Scenes

LightClaw ships with 6 deeply optimized Scenes — each is a complete agent configuration package including a dedicated persona, specialized skills, and fine-tuned behavior rules.

Scene	Description	Example Prompt

📈 Stock Market	Market watcher with technical analysis (MA/MACD/RSI/BOLL), powered by 1090+ akshare data APIs	"What's happening in the A-share market today?"
📰 News & Trends	Real-time aggregation from 70+ platforms (Weibo, Zhihu, HN, GitHub Trending, etc.)	"Summarize today's tech news"
💻 Low-code Dev	Full-stack development assistant: requirements → code generation → preview → deploy	"Build me a personal blog with dark mode"
🎬 Video Production	Text-to-video pipeline: script → storyboard → image generation → video synthesis	"Turn this story into a short video"

🔒 Security & Privacy

• Local-first: All data (config, memory, chats, uploads) stored locally at ~/.lightclaw/ — never uploaded to third-party servers.
• Minimal data to LLM: Only current conversation context and trimmed memory summaries are sent to LLM providers. Config, other channel chats, and the full message DB are never sent.
• Fully offline mode: Use local models (Ollama / LLaMA-CPP / MLX) for zero API calls and complete data isolation.
• Access control: Web Dashboard supports password authentication. Credentials stored as hashes, never plaintext.
• Skill vetting: Community skills in SkillHub undergo security and compliance review before publication.
