What is it?
OpenClaw.NET is a self-hosted runtime for running AI agents on your own machine or a team server. It connects to hosted models such as OpenAI, Claude, Gemini and Azure OpenAI, or to local models through Ollama and optional embedded inference, and exposes the agent through a browser chat, a CLI, OpenAI-compatible HTTP endpoints, MCP and WebSockets.
The runtime includes streaming, tool calling with approvals, sessions, memory and token-usage reporting. A large set of native tools covers files, web access, databases and email, and channel adapters cover Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, Teams and others. Extensions come through MCP servers, SKILL.md packages and reusable DAG workflows called MetaSkills.
AgentQi Companion is an Avalonia desktop app that handles setup, connections, memory and settings in one window. The gateway binds to 127.0.0.1 by default and includes URL safety checks for outbound fetches. Developers can build on it in .NET and deploy supported parts as NativeAOT binaries.
