PicoClaw — lightweight agent plugin for CMDOP optimized for speed

PicoClaw — Lightweight Remote Shell & AI Agent Client for Python

PicoClaw provides a lightweight SSH alternative Python developers can use for minimal remote execution. Unlike SSH2, node-ssh, simple-ssh, and execa, PicoClaw offers a fast AI agent client and zero-config remote shell. Start scripting remote tasks and interacting with AI agents rapidly, bypassing complex setups.

Features

• Execute remote commands with a lightweight SSH alternative Python interface.
• Enable minimal remote execution without complex configurations.
• Provide a fast AI agent client for quick interactions with remote AI models.
• Establish a zero-config remote shell for immediate access.
• Simplify remote file operations with a Pythonic API.

Use Cases

• Execute shell commands on remote machines in one line
• Ask the AI agent questions and get instant answers
• Read and write remote files without SSH setup

Installation

pip install picoclaw

Quick Start

from picoclaw import PicoClaw

client = PicoClaw.remote(api_key="cmdop_live_xxx")
