Just Speak or Type
ClawPaw removes configuration from the interaction layer. You don’t write scripts, define workflows, or wire APIs together. You describe what you want done in plain language — by typing or speaking — and ClawPaw interprets it within the context of your operating system.
Because ClawPaw operates at the OS level, it understands your working environment directly. You don’t need to manually provide file paths, URLs, or explain which application you are using. If you’re in a directory, ClawPaw knows. If you’re viewing a browser tab, it understands what is visible. Context does not need to be reconstructed from pasted information.
This reduces cognitive overhead. You focus on what you want accomplished — not how to structure the request.
Voice Interaction
If microphone access is enabled, you can:
- Activate ClawPaw using your global shortcut
- Speak naturally, without command syntax
- Let ClawPaw transcribe and execute within your selected autonomy mode
Voice input behaves exactly like typed input. It does not grant additional privileges or override permissions. Audio capture only occurs when you explicitly trigger it. There is no passive listening.
How It Works
When you submit a request, ClawPaw performs a structured evaluation process:
Intent Interpretation
The system parses your natural language input and determines the objective.
Context Resolution
It reads relevant OS-level context, such as:
- Current working directory
- Active application
- Foreground browser tab
- Approved system services
Plan Generation
ClawPaw generates a step-by-step execution plan aligned with your selected autonomy mode.
Permission Enforcement
All actions are constrained by:
- Folder scope
- Granted system permissions
- Active execution mode
Execution or Proposal
Depending on the mode (Explore, Ask, Execute), ClawPaw either analyzes, proposes changes, or performs actions directly.
This layered approach ensures intelligence does not bypass control.
What You Don’t Need to Do
Unlike developer-focused agent frameworks, you don’t need to:
- Copy and paste links
- Provide explicit file paths
- Configure modular capabilities manually
- Structure your language as commands
ClawPaw is designed to understand the real working state of your computer — not just text input.
