What It Does

Provides the backend for ɳSelf Claw, an AI assistant that can use tools, browse the web, run code, and interact with your data. Implements a ReAct (Reasoning + Acting) loop where the agent plans steps, executes tools, and observes results iteratively. Streams responses via SSE for real-time display. Connects to any chat interface or the companion claw-web Next.js frontend.

Newsletter Reply-by-Number (Plan 30)

When the mux plugin sends a numbered newsletter digest to Telegram, users can reply to fetch the full article or ask a question about it. The claw plugin’s Telegram long-poll handler processes these replies.

Pattern Example Behaviour
Bare number 3 Delivers full article body (Path A)
Hash prefix #3 Delivers full article body (Path A)
Embedded hash What about #3? Focused AI answer to the question (Path B)

Requires CLAW_TG_BOT_TOKEN. Articles are stored by the mux plugin in np_mux_newsletter_articles and read here via the Hasura GraphQL API. Rate limit: one fetch per user per 10 seconds. Full documentation: .github/docs/features/newsletter.md in the claw plugin source.
