NanoClaw GUI · free
A free desktop app for NanoClaw.
A lightweight agent with its own instructions, skills and memory, built on the Claude Agent SDK. Tesseract gives it a window on Mac, Windows and Linux — beside a code editor, a terminal and a live preview, with a plan you approve before it acts.
Updated · Made by the NanoClaw open-source project · NanoClaw’s own site
Set up
NanoClaw running in three steps.
- Download Tesseract. Free for Mac, Windows and Linux; it installs and updates itself.
- Pick NanoClaw. On the first-run screen or in Settings. Tesseract installs it for you, or uses the copy already on your computer.
- Sign in. Use an API key, or the sign-in already on your machine; it runs on the Claude Agent SDK.

Questions
About NanoClaw in Tesseract.
- Is there a NanoClaw GUI for Mac, Windows and Linux?
- Yes. Tesseract is a free desktop app for all three that runs NanoClaw in a window, with a code editor, a terminal, a live preview and a browser beside the conversation.
- Does it cost anything to use NanoClaw in Tesseract?
- Tesseract is free. Use an API key, or the sign-in already on your machine; it runs on the Claude Agent SDK. Your plan or key with the NanoClaw open-source project works as it does anywhere else, with its own limits; Tesseract adds no charge on top.
- Can I use NanoClaw and other agents at the same time?
- Yes. Each conversation picks its own framework, so NanoClaw can work in one conversation while Claude Code, Codex or any of the 13 others work in another.
- Does Tesseract change how NanoClaw works?
- It runs NanoClaw itself, installed on your computer, and adds what is around it: the window, the editor and terminal, a plan you approve, permission prompts and a record of the conversation you can search and pick up later.
