Overview

NoDeskClaw (also known as DeskClaw) is an open-source platform developed by NoDeskAI that enables seamless human-AI collaboration in business operations. It creates Cyber Workspaces — shared digital environments where humans provide strategic judgment and AI handles relentless execution. The platform supports co-managed organizations with real-time task delegation, capability expansion via modular "Genes," and production-ready scaling.

The repository contains both the Community Edition (CE) under Apache 2.0 and components for the Enterprise Edition (EE).

Key Features

Cyber Workspace: Hexagonal topology visualization for operations board, task publishing, and real-time human-AI coordination.
Gene System: Plug-and-play modular AI capabilities (marketing, analytics, etc.) loaded dynamically from public/private marketplaces.
Elastic Scaling: One-click deployment and auto-scaling of AI agents using Kubernetes or Docker.
Multi-Cluster Orchestration: Health monitoring and management across clusters.
LLM Proxy: Secure routing to providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and others.
Channel Plugins: Integrations with DingTalk, Feishu, and other messaging tools via Stream protocol.
Enterprise Features (EE): Feishu SSO with org sync, multi-organization support, audit logs, and advanced admin console.
i18n Support: Full internationalization for English and Chinese.

Technical Stack

Installation

Docker Compose (Recommended)

# Community Edition
docker compose up -d

# Enterprise Edition
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.ee.yml up -d

Access the portal at http://localhost:4517. Initial admin credentials are printed in the logs.

Kubernetes (Production)

Use the provided deploy/cli.sh scripts for initialization, deployment, and promotion between environments.

Local Development

./dev.sh          # Auto-detect CE/EE
./dev.sh --docker-pg  # Start with PostgreSQL

Use Cases

Building human-AI co-managed teams for business operations.
Delegating repetitive execution tasks to AI while humans focus on strategy.
Scaling AI agent fleets elastically in cloud or on-prem environments.
Integrating with enterprise IM tools for seamless communication.
Developing and sharing modular AI capabilities via the Gene marketplace.

Relation to DeskClaw Desktop

This repository powers the backend and orchestration layer of the DeskClaw ecosystem. The desktop "AI pet" assistant (animated crab) builds on related runtimes like OpenClaw for local browser automation and file management, while NoDeskClaw provides the enterprise collaboration and scaling foundation.
