🧬 OpenClaw Derivatives

Exploring minimalist "Claw" variants for resource-constrained hardware.

1. PicoClaw

• Footprint: <10MB RAM.
• Form Factor: Single binary.
• Use Case: Embedded SBCs (LicheeRV Nano), Vision Processors, and high-end ESP32s.
• Role: Local telemetry monitor / Actuator agent.

2. NanoClaw

• Footprint: ~500 LOC.
• Focus: Security via container isolation.
• Use Case: Trusted messaging bridge (WhatsApp/Telegram).
• Role: Isolated communication gateway.

📋 Integration Strategy

• Central Brain: OpenClaw (NUC 13 Pro).
• Edge Satellites: PicoClaw for hardware-specific monitoring and real-time response.
