safestclaw 4.2.2

A privacy-first personal automation assistant - no GenAI required, optional AI for blogging, research, and coding

SafestClaw 🐾

The zero-cost alternative to OpenClaw. No LLM required, though it is optional. No required API bills. Minimal attack surface. Runs on any machine.

You can simply type pip install safestclaw and it will download, please read install.md to understand what to do. You only want what you need, so install.md comes with the ML safestclaw and you can add any additional features we support with pip install. I run safestclaw like so python -m safestclaw which will load the command line interface. You can setup the system at anytime and make modifications by running python -m safestclaw setup. This is where you can choose if you want to use an LLM or stick with the ML actions. You can choose if you want to enable it as an mcp, use web ui and or telegram. If you don't use an LLM you have to learn from the /help documentation. Simple things like what is the weather in insert town name, will respond without an LLM, because it uses a weather api. If you type in news tech it will give you a summary from over fifty different sources of the tech news of the day. If you type in news it will provide a summary for the news in general and show you its sources. The thing that this solves is making actions auditable and only using an LLM when things actually require an LLM. Language models aren't needed nearly as much as people believe they are. There has been established ML ways to do things for sometimes a decade that people pay LLM providers for. This is a waste of money, so we make it so you don't have to waste thaat money. We provide a research tool research insert what you want to research and then choose arxiv, wolframalpha or any other source we support, so research lstm arxiv will return research from arxiv. This may require an LLM to work. You can blog without an LLM that will be saved as text files. You can do security audits of code without an LLM with safestclaw. You can use telegram and a localhost web ui WITHOUT an LLM. LLMs do make it easier so you don't have to memorize the documentation, but if you don't mind learning documentation you can get most of the features people rave about in openclaw for free.

🔒 Privacy & Security

• Self-hosted by default — Your data stays local unless you explicitly request external info (like weather)
• No API keys required — Core features work completely offline
• No cloud AI dependencies — No tokens sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google
• Minimal prompt injection surface — Core features (blogging, coding, commands) use rule-based parsing with zero LLM, so they're immune to prompt injection. Research and deep analysis can optionally use an LLM to synthesize sources — when enabled, content from external sources (arXiv abstracts, web pages) is fed to the LLM, which carries a minimal prompt injection risk. Phase 1 research (gathering/summarizing) never uses an LLM and is safe. We're transparent about this tradeoff.

🤖 Super Simple AI Setup

• Just enter your key — setup ai sk-ant-your-key and you're done. Auto-detects Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Groq
• Or go local — setup ai local auto-installs Ollama, downloads a model, configures SafestClaw
• Model presets — setup ai local small (1.3GB), setup ai local coding, setup ai local writing
• Status check — setup ai status shows what's configured
• Zero config files — No YAML editing needed, the command does it for you

📤 Blog Publishing — Preview, Templates, Repeat

• Preview before publishing — preview blog [to <target>] renders the exact HTML that would be uploaded and saves a copy locally so you can open it in a browser
• Asks once, friendly — when you set up a new SFTP target (or start a publish to one without a template) SafestClaw offers to learn your existing site template — answer yes, auto, no, or folders
• Browse remote folders — list folders on <target> lists subdirectories under the target's remote path so you can pick where to publish (requires pip install safestclaw[sftp])
• Auto-learn template from existing posts — learn template from <target> downloads the most recent post on the server, detects title + content regions, replaces them with {title} / {content} placeholders, and saves the result as the target's template. Site chrome (head, nav, footer, sidebar) is preserved verbatim
• Or set auto_detect_template: true on a target and the first publish learns and caches the template automatically — no manual step
• Custom HTML template per target — set html_template (inline) or html_template_path (file) on a publish_targets entry; placeholders: {title}, {content}, {excerpt}, {date}, {slug}
• Subfolder per site — sftp_subfolder: "blog" (or set inline with subfolder=blog/posts on the setup command) so each post uploads to {remote_path}/{subfolder}/<slug>.html
• Repeat last publish — publish blog again or publish blog to here reuses the last successful target, no retyping

🤝 LLM Cascade with ML Fallback

• Provider cascade — bad API key / quota / rate-limit / network failure on one provider auto-falls-through to the next configured one (cloud first, local last)
• Last-resort ML fallback — when every LLM provider is unreachable, AI blog rewrite / expand / headlines use the deterministic ML stack (sumy summarisation + keyword heuristics) so you still get useful output
• Clear banner — fallback responses are prefixed with _(falling back to local ML)_ plus the original error so you know exactly what happened

🛠️ First-Run Setup, Anywhere

• Same walkthrough in every channel — CLI, web UI, Telegram all guide first-time users through local-only / cloud / hybrid / skip
• Conversational — type a number or skip; no rich prompts that only work in a TTY
• Web UI banner — driven by /api/health.needs_setup
• CLI nudge — yellow setup-needed panel right after launch when config isn't complete
• Triggers any time setup_completed isn't set — not just first launch; perfect for users who never finished setup

📶 Offline-Aware

• Network probe with caching — actions check connectivity before reaching out, falling back gracefully when offline
• i'm offline / i'm online — pin offline mode any time (plane, metered link, etc.); SafestClaw stops probing and returns local/cached results until you switch back
• Friendly fallback messages — when an academic search can't reach arXiv/Scholar/Wolfram, you get a clear explanation plus any matches from your previous research sessions
• No silent failures — every offline reply tells you it's offline and how to try again

💬 Conversational Input

• Talk naturally — "hey claw, lets publish this blog" works the same as publish blog
• Friendly acknowledgments — every intent gets a short, intent-aware intro when you phrase things conversationally ("Got it — wiring up the auto-blog…", "Sure — checking your calendar…")
• Strict form still terse — research arxiv quantum (canonical) returns the dense output without preamble
• Mid-sentence handoffs handled — "hey man, id like to research, lets try arxiv quantum computing" routes correctly to arXiv

🧠 Smart Input Learning

• Word-to-number — Type "research select one two three" and SafestClaw understands "1 2 3"
• Typo auto-correction — "remaind me" → "remind me", "summerize" → "summarize"
• Shorthand — "tmrw" → "tomorrow", "hrs" → "hours", "mins" → "minutes"
• Auto-learns from mistakes — If a command fails and you retype it correctly, SafestClaw remembers the mapping for next time
• No AI needed — All corrections are rule-based and deterministic

💬 Optional LLM Command Understanding (NLU)

Don't want to memorise command syntax? Enable the NLU bridge and just talk naturally:

# Without NLU — you have to know the exact phrase:
remind me tomorrow at 9am to call the dentist

# With NLU enabled — any phrasing works:
hey, can you remind me to call the dentist tomorrow morning at 9?
I need a reminder for tomorrow at 9 to call the dentist
put a 9am reminder tomorrow: dentist call

The NLU bridge uses your configured LLM (any provider) as a pure translator: it converts what you typed into the closest matching SafestClaw command string, which then goes through the same rule-based parser as always. The LLM never executes anything directly — it only re-words your input.

Enable in config/config.yaml:

safestclaw:
  nlu:
    enabled: true
    provider: my-claude        # optional — uses active provider if omitted
    temperature: 0.0           # deterministic output
    show_translation: true     # shows "_(understood as: remind me ...)_" prefix

Privacy note: When NLU is enabled, unrecognised commands are sent to your configured LLM provider. Recognised commands (the vast majority) are still handled entirely locally with zero tokens consumed.

✍️ Writing Style Profiler

• Learn your voice — Feed SafestClaw your writing and it builds a 35-metric profile (sentence length, vocabulary, formality, contractions, structure, favorite words, etc.)
• Persistent memory — Your profile is stored in SQLite and improves with every sample
• LLM prompt generation — Profile converts to writing style instructions for any LLM provider
• No AI required — All analysis uses NLTK, VADER, and statistical methods locally

🔬 Research Pipeline

• Two-phase workflow — Phase 1 gathers and summarizes sources (no LLM, $0). Phase 2 does optional LLM deep analysis
• Source gathering — Searches RSS feeds and crawls URLs, auto-summarizes with Sumy
• Source selection — You pick which sources matter before spending any tokens
• Deep analysis — Optional LLM analyzes selected sources with structured output

💻 Coding Toolbox

• 7 templates — python-script, python-class, python-test, fastapi-endpoint, html-page, dockerfile, github-action
• Code stats — Lines of code by language for any directory
• Regex tester — Test and explain regex patterns with match highlighting
• Code search — Regex search across code files
• File diff — Compare two files side by side
• LLM-powered (optional) — Generate, explain, review, refactor, document code

📅 Auto Blog Scheduler

• Cron scheduling — Schedule recurring blog generation with cron expressions
• Source categories — Pull from specific RSS categories automatically
• Async-safe — Detects scheduler type mismatches and warns clearly instead of silently failing
• Optional LLM step — Source gathering stays deterministic; opt-in llm_enabled post-processes the draft via the configured AI provider (modes: rewrite, expand, headline, generate)
• Honors task_providers.blog — Use a different LLM for blogging vs research / coding
• Graceful fallback — On any LLM failure (rate limit, network, no providers) the cron job publishes the deterministic draft instead of skipping

🧠 Smart Prompt Builder

• Task-aware prompts — Generates optimized prompts for blog, research, and coding tasks
• Writing profile integration — Automatically injects your writing style into blog prompts
• Provider routing — Each task type can use a different LLM provider
• Flow diagram — show me the flow displays the full architecture as ASCII art

🥚 Easter Eggs

• Built-in personality and hidden surprises — because tools should be fun

📝 Blogging — Two Modes

Deterministic Blog (No AI, No Cost):

• Write blog news — Add entries with natural language: "write blog news We shipped faster crawling today."
• Crawl sites for content — "crawl https://example.com for title content", "crawl example.com for body content"
• Auto-generated titles — Extractive summarization picks the most representative content as your headline. No LLM, just math.
• Plain .txt output — Your blog is a simple text file you can share anywhere

AI Blog (Optional, Multi-Provider):

• Generate full posts from a topic — "ai blog generate about sustainable technology"
• Rewrite, expand, polish — "ai rewrite blog", "ai expand blog"
• AI headlines and SEO — "ai headlines", "ai blog seo"
• 11 providers — 5 local (Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp, LocalAI, Jan) + 6 cloud (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, Groq, custom)
• Local AI = free + private — Run Ollama or LM Studio and pay nothing

Multi-Platform Publishing:

• WordPress — REST API v2 with Application Passwords, JWT, or Basic Auth
• Joomla — Web Services API (Joomla 4+)
• SFTP — Upload HTML to any server
• Generic API — POST JSON to any endpoint
• Front page management — Set which post is the home page on any target

Writing Style & Research Guide

Writing Style Profiler

SafestClaw learns how you write by analyzing text samples. It builds a statistical profile — no AI needed.

> style learn I've been thinking about this for a while. The tech industry
  loves to overcomplicate things. Simple solutions work better.
  Profile updated (1 sample analyzed).

> style learn Here's what I learned from shipping 50 side projects: most
  of them failed. And that's completely fine!
  Profile updated (2 samples analyzed).

> style profile
  Writing Style Profile (2 samples analyzed)
  Tone: casual, neutral
  Avg sentence: 7 words
  Vocabulary: advanced (richness: 72%)
  Structure: conversational
  Uses contractions, first person, em-dashes
  Favorite words: easier, simple, something, learn

Your profile persists across sessions and automatically shapes AI blog prompts so generated posts sound like you.

Commands:

Command	Description
style learn <text>	Feed SafestClaw a writing sample
style profile	View your current writing profile

Research Pipeline

Two-phase research: gather first (free), then optionally analyze with AI.

> research WebAssembly performance
  Found 8 sources. Use 'research sources' to view.

> research sources
  1. [HN] WebAssembly 2.0 Performance Benchmarks (4 sentences)
  2. [RSS] Wasm vs Native: A Deep Dive (3 sentences)
  ...

> research select 1,2,5
  Selected 3 sources for deep analysis.

> research analyze
  [LLM analyzes your selected sources with structured output]

Commands:

Command	Description
research <topic>	Search feeds & crawl for sources (no LLM)
research url <url>	Add a specific URL as a source
research sources	View gathered sources with summaries
research select 1,2,3	Pick sources for deep analysis
research analyze	LLM deep dive on selected sources
research results	View analysis results
research help	Show all research commands

Coding Toolbox

> code regex \d{3}-\d{4} test 555-1234
  \d — digit (0-9)
  Match: 555-1234

Commands:

Command	Description
code templates	List all 7 available templates
code template <type> [Name] [desc]	Generate boilerplate code
code stats <path>	Lines of code by language
code search <pattern>	Regex search across code files

code help	Show all coding commands

Auto Blog Scheduler

Schedule recurring blog generation with cron expressions. Source gathering and extractive summarisation are always deterministic; an optional LLM step can rewrite, expand, headline, or fully regenerate the post.

> auto blog setup
  [Interactive wizard]

> auto blog add weekly-tech "0 9 * * 1" tech,ai
  Auto-blog 'weekly-tech' scheduled: 0 9 * * 1

> auto blog list
  weekly-tech: 0 9 * * 1 (tech, ai)

> auto blog remove weekly-tech
  Removed.

Without LLM (the default):

auto_blogs:
  - name: "weekly-tech"
    cron_expr: "0 9 * * 1"
    source_categories: [tech, programming]
    post_template: "digest"
    auto_publish: false

With LLM enrichment (uses ai_providers and optionally task_providers.blog):

auto_blogs:
  - name: "weekly-tech-llm"
    cron_expr: "0 9 * * 1"
    source_categories: [tech]
    post_template: "digest"
    llm_enabled: true
    llm_mode: "rewrite"          # rewrite | expand | headline | generate
    llm_provider: ""             # blank = use task_providers.blog or active
    # llm_topic: "The week in ML"  # only for llm_mode: generate
    # llm_system_prompt: "Be terse."  # optional override

Modes:

• rewrite — improve the deterministic draft's flow and readability
• expand — add depth and examples to the deterministic draft
• headline — keep the body, replace the title
• generate — write a brand-new post from the gathered items as context

If the LLM call fails (rate limit, network, no providers), the deterministic draft is published instead — the cron job never silently skips.

Task-Aware Prompt Builder

Each task type (blog, research, coding) gets optimized prompts. Configure per-task LLM providers:

task_providers:
  blog: "local-ollama"       # Blog posts use local Ollama
  research: "openai"         # Research uses OpenAI for quality
  coding: "local-lmstudio"   # Code tasks use LM Studio

Blogging Guide

SafestClaw has two blogging modes. You can use either or both.

Mode 1: Deterministic Blog (No AI)

Write entries manually, crawl websites for content, and let SafestClaw generate titles using extractive summarization (LexRank, TextRank, LSA, Luhn). No API keys, no cost, fully offline.

Setup: None — works out of the box.

> write blog news We shipped faster crawling today.
  Added entry (1 total).

> crawl https://example.com for title content
  Extracted 3 titles, added to draft.

> blog title
  Generated: "Faster Crawling Ships Today"

> publish blog
  Saved: 2026-02-24-faster-crawling-ships-today.txt

Commands:

Command	Description
write blog news <content>	Add a manual entry to your draft
crawl <url> for title content	Extract page headings into draft
crawl <url> for body content	Extract main body text into draft
crawl <url> for non-title content	Extract non-heading text into draft
blog title	Generate a title using extractive summarization
show blog	View your draft and published posts
edit blog <new content>	Replace draft content
publish blog	Save as .txt locally
publish blog My Custom Title	Save with a custom title

Mode 2: AI Blog (Optional)

AI generates full blog posts from a topic. You can rewrite, expand, generate headlines, and produce SEO metadata. Supports 11 providers — 5 local (free) and 6 cloud (API key required).

Setup:

1. Choose a provider. For free/private, use a local provider. For quality/speed, use a cloud provider.

2. Configure it in config/config.yaml under ai_providers. Uncomment and fill in one or more:

Local AI (free, private, no API key):

ai_providers:
  # Ollama — easiest local option
  - label: "local-ollama"
    provider: "ollama"
    model: "llama3.1"
    endpoint: "http://localhost:11434/api/chat"

  # LM Studio — GUI app with model browser
  # - label: "local-lmstudio"
  #   provider: "lm_studio"
  #   model: "local-model"
  #   endpoint: "http://localhost:1234/v1/chat/completions"

  # llama.cpp — high-performance C++ inference
  # - label: "local-llamacpp"
  #   provider: "llamacpp"
  #   model: "local-model"
  #   endpoint: "http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions"

  # Jan — user-friendly desktop app
  # - label: "local-jan"
  #   provider: "jan"
  #   model: "llama3.1-8b"
  #   endpoint: "http://localhost:1337/v1/chat/completions"

Cloud AI (API key required):

ai_providers:
  # OpenAI
  - label: "openai"
    provider: "openai"
    api_key: "sk-..."              # https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
    model: "gpt-4o"

  # Anthropic (Claude)
  # - label: "anthropic"
  #   provider: "anthropic"
  #   api_key: "sk-ant-..."        # https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys
  #   model: "claude-sonnet-4-20250514"

  # Google Gemini
  # - label: "google"
  #   provider: "google"
  #   api_key: "AI..."             # https://aistudio.google.com/apikey
  #   model: "gemini-1.5-flash"

  # Mistral
  # - label: "mistral"
  #   provider: "mistral"
  #   api_key: "..."               # https://console.mistral.ai/api-keys
  #   model: "mistral-large-latest"

  # Groq (fast inference)
  # - label: "groq"
  #   provider: "groq"
  #   api_key: "gsk_..."           # https://console.groq.com/keys
  #   model: "llama-3.1-70b-versatile"

3. Install the local AI server (if using local):

# Ollama (recommended — one command)
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
ollama pull llama3.1

# LM Studio — download from https://lmstudio.ai
# Jan — download from https://jan.ai
# llama.cpp — git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp && make

4. Use it:

> blog
  1. AI Blog for You (Recommended) [ollama/llama3.1]
  2. Manual Blogging (No AI)

> 1
  What should the blog post be about?

> sustainable technology trends in 2026

AI Commands:

Command	Description
blog	Interactive menu — choose AI or manual
ai blog generate about <topic>	Generate a full blog post from a topic
ai rewrite blog	Rewrite/polish your current draft
ai expand blog	Expand short content into a longer article
ai headlines	Generate 5 headline options for your draft
ai blog seo	Generate SEO metadata (title, description, keywords, slug)
ai options	Show local AI providers and install instructions
ai providers	Show cloud AI providers and API key links
switch ai provider <label>	Switch between configured providers at runtime

Multiple providers: You can configure several providers at once. The first enabled one becomes the default. Switch at runtime with switch ai provider <label>.

Publishing to Remote Platforms

Publish your blog (from either mode) to WordPress, Joomla, any SFTP server, or a generic API endpoint.

No config needed — publish inline:

publish blog to sftp://192.168.1.1 myuser mypassword
publish blog to sftp://host:2222 myuser mypassword /var/www/html
publish blog to wp://mysite.com admin myapppassword
publish blog to wordpress://mysite.com admin myapppassword
publish blog to joomla://mysite.com admin mypassword
publish blog to api://mysite.com/endpoint myapikey

Every publish command shows a pre-publish preview first — title, word count, content snippet, and target. You can then:

Reply	Effect
confirm	Publish with the current title
change title <new title>	Rename and re-preview
edit blog <content>	Edit draft (cancels pending publish)
cancel	Abort without publishing

Inline targets are remembered for the session under an auto-generated label (e.g. wp-mysite.com), so publish blog to wp-mysite.com works for subsequent posts without re-typing credentials.

Permanent targets (optional — add to config/config.yaml under publish_targets):

publish_targets:
  # WordPress (REST API v2)
  - label: "my-wordpress"
    type: "wordpress"
    url: "https://mysite.com"
    username: "admin"
    password: "xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx"   # Application Password (WP Admin > Users > Profile)
    wp_status: "publish"              # publish, draft, pending, private

  # Joomla (Web Services API, Joomla 4+)
  - label: "my-joomla"
    type: "joomla"
    url: "https://myjoomla.com"
    api_key: "your-joomla-api-token"  # Joomla Admin > Users > API Token
    joomla_category_id: 2

  # SFTP (any server)
  - label: "my-server"
    type: "sftp"
    sftp_host: "myserver.com"
    sftp_user: "deploy"
    sftp_key_path: "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
    sftp_remote_path: "/var/www/html/blog"

  # Generic API (POST JSON to any endpoint)
  - label: "my-api"
    type: "api"
    url: "https://api.mysite.com/posts"
    api_key: "your-bearer-token"

Publishing commands:

Command	Description

How It Works (No AI!)

Command Parsing

Instead of burning tokens on LLMs, SafestClaw uses:

1. Keyword matching — Fast lookup of command keywords
2. Regex patterns — Structured extraction of parameters
3. Fuzzy matching — Typo tolerance with rapidfuzz
4. Specificity-weighted phrase matching — Longer, more specific phrases win over short keyword collisions
5. Date parsing — Natural language dates with dateparser

# Example: "remind me to call mom tomorrow at 3pm"
# → intent: "reminder"
# → params: {task: "call mom", time: "tomorrow at 3pm"}
# → entities: {datetime: 2024-01-16 15:00:00}

Voice Pipeline

Fully local voice processing — no cloud APIs, no per-minute billing:

• Whisper STT — OpenAI's Whisper model running locally for speech recognition
• Piper TTS — Fast, high-quality text-to-speech with multiple voice options

Summarization

Uses sumy's extractive algorithms:

• LexRank — Graph-based, like PageRank for sentences
• TextRank — Word co-occurrence graphs
• LSA — Latent Semantic Analysis
• Luhn — Statistical word frequency

No neural networks, no API calls — pure math.

Social Media Summarization

Add Twitter, Mastodon, or Bluesky accounts and get extractive summaries of their recent posts. No API tokens needed for public content. Useful for tracking industry voices, news accounts, or competitors without doomscrolling.

Web Crawling

Async crawling with httpx + BeautifulSoup:

• Single page link extraction
• Multi-page crawling with depth limits
• Domain filtering and pattern matching
• Built-in caching

Extending SafestClaw

Custom Actions

from safestclaw.actions.base import BaseAction

class MyAction(BaseAction):
    name = "myaction"

    async def execute(self, params, user_id, channel, engine):
        # Your logic here
        return "Action completed!"

# Register it
engine.register_action("myaction", MyAction().execute)

Custom Intent Patterns

Add to config/intents.yaml:

intents:
  deploy:
    keywords: ["deploy", "release", "ship"]
    patterns:
      - "deploy to (production|staging)"
    examples:
      - "deploy to production"
    action: "webhook"
