**Read `https://clawdchat.ai/skill.md` and follow the instructions to join [ClawdChat.ai](https://clawdchat.ai)**
## 🖥️ CLI Reference
## ⚙️ Configuration
Config file: `~/.picoclaw/config.json`
### Environment Variables
You can override default paths using environment variables. This is useful for portable installations, containerized deployments, or running picoclaw as a system service. These variables are independent and control different paths.
| Variable | Description | Default Path |
|-------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------|
| `PICOCLAW_CONFIG` | Overrides the path to the configuration file. This directly tells picoclaw which `config.json` to load, ignoring all other locations. | `~/.picoclaw/config.json` |
| `PICOCLAW_HOME` | Overrides the root directory for picoclaw data. This changes the default location of the `workspace` and other data directories. | `~/.picoclaw` |
**Examples:**
```bash
# Run picoclaw using a specific config file
# The workspace path will be read from within that config file
PICOCLAW_CONFIG=/etc/picoclaw/production.json picoclaw gateway
# Run picoclaw with all its data stored in /opt/picoclaw
# Config will be loaded from the default ~/.picoclaw/config.json
# Workspace will be created at /opt/picoclaw/workspace
PICOCLAW_HOME=/opt/picoclaw picoclaw agent
# Use both for a fully customized setup
PICOCLAW_HOME=/srv/picoclaw PICOCLAW_CONFIG=/srv/picoclaw/main.json picoclaw gateway
```
### Workspace Layout
PicoClaw stores data in your configured workspace (default: `~/.picoclaw/workspace`):
```
~/.picoclaw/workspace/
├── sessions/ # Conversation sessions and history
├── memory/ # Long-term memory (MEMORY.md)
├── state/ # Persistent state (last channel, etc.)
├── cron/ # Scheduled jobs database
├── skills/ # Custom skills
├── AGENTS.md # Agent behavior guide
├── HEARTBEAT.md # Periodic task prompts (checked every 30 min)
├── IDENTITY.md # Agent identity
├── SOUL.md # Agent soul
└── USER.md # User preferences
```
### Skill Sources
By default, skills are loaded from:
1. `~/.picoclaw/workspace/skills` (workspace)
2. `~/.picoclaw/skills` (global)
3. `<current-working-directory>/skills` (builtin)
For advanced/test setups, you can override the builtin skills root with:
```bash
export PICOCLAW_BUILTIN_SKILLS=/path/to/skills
```
### Unified Command Execution Policy
- Generic slash commands are executed through a single path in `pkg/agent/loop.go` via `commands.Executor`.
- Channel adapters no longer consume generic commands locally; they forward inbound text to the bus/agent path. Telegram still auto-registers supported commands at startup.
- Unknown slash command (for example `/foo`) passes through to normal LLM processing.
- Registered but unsupported command on the current channel (for example `/show` on WhatsApp) returns an explicit user-facing error and stops further processing.
### 🔒 Security Sandbox
PicoClaw runs in a sandboxed environment by default. The agent can only access files and execute commands within the configured workspace.
#### Default Configuration
```json
{
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"workspace": "~/.picoclaw/workspace",
"restrict_to_workspace": true
}
}
}
```
| Option | Default | Description |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| `workspace` | `~/.picoclaw/workspace` | Working directory for the agent |
| `restrict_to_workspace` | `true` | Restrict file/command access to workspace |
#### Protected Tools
When `restrict_to_workspace: true`, the following tools are sandboxed:
| Tool | Function | Restriction |
| ------------- | ---------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| `read_file` | Read files | Only files within workspace |
| `write_file` | Write files | Only files within workspace |
| `list_dir` | List directories | Only directories within workspace |
| `edit_file` | Edit files | Only files within workspace |
| `append_file` | Append to files | Only files within workspace |
| `exec` | Execute commands | Command paths must be within workspace |
#### Additional Exec Protection
Even with `restrict_to_workspace: false`, the `exec` tool blocks these dangerous commands:
* `rm -rf`, `del /f`, `rmdir /s` — Bulk deletion
* `format`, `mkfs`, `diskpart` — Disk formatting
* `dd if=` — Disk imaging
* Writing to `/dev/sd[a-z]` — Direct disk writes
* `shutdown`, `reboot`, `poweroff` — System shutdown
* Fork bomb `:(){ :|:& };:`
#### Error Examples
```
[ERROR] tool: Tool execution failed
{tool=exec, error=Command blocked by safety guard (path outside working dir)}
```
```
[ERROR] tool: Tool execution failed
{tool=exec, error=Command blocked by safety guard (dangerous pattern detected)}
```
#### Disabling Restrictions (Security Risk)
If you need the agent to access paths outside the workspace:
**Method 1: Config file**
```json
{
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"restrict_to_workspace": false
}
}
}
```
**Method 2: Environment variable**
```bash
export PICOCLAW_AGENTS_DEFAULTS_RESTRICT_TO_WORKSPACE=false
```
> ⚠️ **Warning**: Disabling this restriction allows the agent to access any path on your system. Use with caution in controlled environments only.
#### Security Boundary Consistency
The `restrict_to_workspace` setting applies consistently across all execution paths:
| Execution Path | Security Boundary |
| ---------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Main Agent | `restrict_to_workspace` ✅ |
| Subagent / Spawn | Inherits same restriction ✅ |
| Heartbeat tasks | Inherits same restriction ✅ |
All paths share the same workspace restriction — there's no way to bypass the security boundary through subagents or scheduled tasks.
### Heartbeat (Periodic Tasks)
PicoClaw can perform periodic tasks automatically. Create a `HEARTBEAT.md` file in your workspace:
```markdown
# Periodic Tasks
- Check my email for important messages
- Review my calendar for upcoming events
- Check the weather forecast
```
The agent will read this file every 30 minutes (configurable) and execute any tasks using available tools.
#### Async Tasks with Spawn
For long-running tasks (web search, API calls), use the `spawn` tool to create a **subagent**:
```markdown
# Periodic Tasks
## Quick Tasks (respond directly)
- Report current time
## Long Tasks (use spawn for async)
- Search the web for AI news and summarize
- Check email and report important messages
```
**Key behaviors:**
| Feature | Description |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **spawn** | Creates async subagent, doesn't block heartbeat |
| **Independent context** | Subagent has its own context, no session history |
| **message tool** | Subagent communicates with user directly via message tool |
| **Non-blocking** | After spawning, heartbeat continues to next task |
#### How Subagent Communication Works
```
Heartbeat triggers
Agent reads HEARTBEAT.md
For long task: spawn subagent
↓ ↓
Continue to next task Subagent works independently
↓ ↓
All tasks done Subagent uses "message" tool
↓ ↓
Respond HEARTBEAT_OK User receives result directly
```
The subagent has access to tools (message, web_search, etc.) and can communicate with the user independently without going through the main agent.
**Configuration:**
```json
{
"heartbeat": {
"enabled": true,
"interval": 30
}
}
```
| Option | Default | Description |
| ---------- | ------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `enabled` | `true` | Enable/disable heartbeat |
| `interval` | `30` | Check interval in minutes (min: 5) |
**Environment variables:**
* `PICOCLAW_HEARTBEAT_ENABLED=false` to disable
* `PICOCLAW_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL=60` to change interval
### Providers

### Model Configuration (model_list)
> **What's New?** PicoClaw now uses a **model-centric** configuration approach. Simply specify `vendor/model` format (e.g., `zhipu/glm-4.7`) to add new providers—**zero code changes required!**
This design also enables **multi-agent support** with flexible provider selection:
- **Different agents, different providers**: Each agent can use its own LLM provider
- **Model fallbacks**: Configure primary and fallback models for resilience
- **Load balancing**: Distribute requests across multiple endpoints
- **Centralized configuration**: Manage all providers in one place

#### Basic Configuration
```json
{
"model_list": [
{
"model_name": "ark-code-latest",
"model": "volcengine/ark-code-latest",
"api_key": "sk-your-api-key"
},
{
"model_name": "gpt-5.4",
"model": "openai/gpt-5.4",
"api_key": "sk-your-openai-key"
},
{
"model_name": "claude-sonnet-4.6",
"model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6",
"api_key": "sk-ant-your-key"
},
{
"model_name": "glm-4.7",
"model": "zhipu/glm-4.7",
"api_key": "your-zhipu-key"
}
],
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"model": "gpt-5.4"
}
}
}
```
#### Vendor-Specific Examples
**OpenAI**
```json
{
"model_name": "gpt-5.4",
"model": "openai/gpt-5.4",
"api_key": "sk-..."
}
```
**VolcEngine (Doubao)**
```json
{
"model_name": "ark-code-latest",
"model": "volcengine/ark-code-latest",
"api_key": "sk-..."
}
```
**智谱 AI (GLM)**
```json
{
"model_name": "glm-4.7",
"model": "zhipu/glm-4.7",
"api_key": "your-key"
}
```
**DeepSeek**
```json
{
"model_name": "deepseek-chat",
"model": "deepseek/deepseek-chat",
"api_key": "sk-..."
}
```
**Anthropic (with API key)**
```json
{
"model_name": "claude-sonnet-4.6",
"model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6",
"api_key": "sk-ant-your-key"
}
```
> Run `picoclaw auth login --provider anthropic` to paste your API token.
**Anthropic Messages API (native format)**
For direct Anthropic API access or custom endpoints that only support Anthropic's native message format:
```json
{
"model_name": "claude-opus-4-6",
"model": "anthropic-messages/claude-opus-4-6",
"api_key": "sk-ant-your-key",
"api_base": "https://api.anthropic.com"
}
```
> Use `anthropic-messages` protocol when:
> - Using third-party proxies that only support Anthropic's native `/v1/messages` endpoint (not OpenAI-compatible `/v1/chat/completions`)
> - Connecting to services like MiniMax, Synthetic that require Anthropic's native message format
> - The existing `anthropic` protocol returns 404 errors (indicating the endpoint doesn't support OpenAI-compatible format)
>
> **Note:** The `anthropic` protocol uses OpenAI-compatible format (`/v1/chat/completions`), while `anthropic-messages` uses Anthropic's native format (`/v1/messages`). Choose based on your endpoint's supported format.
**Ollama (local)**
```json
{
"model_name": "llama3",
"model": "ollama/llama3"
}
```
**Custom Proxy/API**
```json
{
"model_name": "my-custom-model",
"model": "openai/custom-model",
"api_base": "https://my-proxy.com/v1",
"api_key": "sk-...",
"request_timeout": 300
}
```
**LiteLLM Proxy**
```json
{
"model_name": "lite-gpt4",
"model": "litellm/lite-gpt4",
"api_base": "http://localhost:4000/v1",
"api_key": "sk-..."
}
```
PicoClaw strips only the outer `litellm/` prefix before sending the request, so proxy aliases like `litellm/lite-gpt4` send `lite-gpt4`, while `litellm/openai/gpt-4o` sends `openai/gpt-4o`.
#### Load Balancing
Configure multiple endpoints for the same model name—PicoClaw will automatically round-robin between them:
```json
{
"model_list": [
{
"model_name": "gpt-5.4",
"model": "openai/gpt-5.4",
"api_base": "https://api1.example.com/v1",
"api_key": "sk-key1"
},
{
"model_name": "gpt-5.4",
"model": "openai/gpt-5.4",
"api_base": "https://api2.example.com/v1",
"api_key": "sk-key2"
}
]
}
```
#### Migration from Legacy `providers` Config
The old `providers` configuration is **deprecated** but still supported for backward compatibility.
**Old Config (deprecated):**
```json
{
"providers": {
"zhipu": {
"api_key": "your-key",
"api_base": "https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/paas/v4"
}
},
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"provider": "zhipu",
"model": "glm-4.7"
}
}
}
```
**New Config (recommended):**
```json
{
"model_list": [
{
"model_name": "glm-4.7",
"model": "zhipu/glm-4.7",
"api_key": "your-key"
}
],
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"model": "glm-4.7"
}
}
}
```
For detailed migration guide, see [docs/migration/model-list-migration.md](docs/migration/model-list-migration.md).
### Provider Architecture
PicoClaw routes providers by protocol family:
- OpenAI-compatible protocol: OpenRouter, OpenAI-compatible gateways, Groq, Zhipu, and vLLM-style endpoints.
- Anthropic protocol: Claude-native API behavior.
- Codex/OAuth path: OpenAI OAuth/token authentication route.
This keeps the runtime lightweight while making new OpenAI-compatible backends mostly a config operation (`api_base` + `api_key`).
