# ClawBox

A private AI assistant operating system for an NVIDIA Jetson appliance, running local models by default with cloud AI as an explicit opt-in, and controlling the whole device through MCP tools.

This repository is OpenClaw OS, the operating system that ships on ClawBox, a personal AI assistant appliance built by ID Robots Ltd. around an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano. On first boot the device broadcasts a Wi-Fi access point for setup from a phone, then joins the owner's network and serves a desktop with built-in apps.

By default it runs local inference on-device through llama.cpp, with no account or API key required and no data leaving the box; connecting to cloud providers such as Claude, GPT or Gemini is strictly opt-in, and a local-only mode can switch cloud providers off entirely. The underlying OpenClaw AI agent controls the device through MCP tools.
