Features
Explore all ClawIDE features: agents and gateways, terminal sessions, worktrees, tasks, tracker integrations, Symphony-compatible runs and more.
ClawIDE is a self-hosted command center for coding agents. Everything in the local workspace is free; features marked Pro need a Pro license or the 14-day trial. See pricing.
Agents and Gateways
Run any coding agent per pane, from Claude Code and Codex to Goose and OpenHands, and route each one through OpenRouter, LiteLLM, Ollama or another model gateway. Keys are injected per pane and never passed as arguments.
Setup Wizard
A resumable wizard for agents, gateways, integrations, projects and plan. Skip any step and finish it later.
Tracker Integrations (Pro)
Import Linear, Jira and GitHub issues into your markdown task board and push status and comments back. Tokens stay on your machine.
Symphony-Compatible Orchestration (Pro)
A WORKFLOW.md in your repo turns tracker issues into headless agent runs, with per-issue workspaces, hooks, retries and a live panel.
Terminal Sessions
Run multiple Claude Code sessions side-by-side with split panes, rename tabs, and resize layouts. Powered by xterm.js with WebSocket streaming and tmux-backed session persistence.
File Editor
Browse project files with a lazy-loaded directory tree and edit them with CodeMirror 6, featuring syntax highlighting and language detection.
Docker Integration
Manage Docker Compose services directly from the IDE. Start, stop, build, and restart containers, view healthcheck status, and stream logs inline.
Feature Workspaces
Isolated development environments per feature — each with its own git branch, terminal sessions, file browser, Docker stack, and merge review. Color-coded for quick identification.
Merge Review
Review feature branch changes with a side-by-side diff viewer before merging back to the main branch.
Project Wizard
Create new projects from 15 framework templates across 8 languages, generate with an LLM provider (Claude, OpenAI), or start empty.
Scratchpad
A persistent text area for quick notes and scratch work. Auto-saves on blur, accessible from the sidebar.
Git Worktrees
Create and manage git worktrees to work on multiple branches simultaneously. Bind sessions to worktrees and merge completed work back to your main branch.
Port Detection
Automatically discover listening ports from running processes and docker-compose configurations. Click through to open services directly in your browser.
Settings
Configure ClawIDE to fit your workflow with CLI flags, environment variables, a JSON config file, or the in-app settings page.
Onboarding
A guided welcome experience that introduces ClawIDE’s key features and walks you through your first workspace.
Bookmarks
Save project-specific web bookmarks with starred favorites and emoji labels. Keep your documentation links, staging URLs, and CI dashboards one click away.
Notes
Create project-scoped and global markdown notes for quick reference. Jot down reminders, architecture decisions, or setup instructions.
Notifications
Real-time notification system with SSE streaming. Receive alerts from system events, Docker status changes, and Claude Code task completions.
System Statistics
Monitor CPU, memory, and network information from within ClawIDE. View active session counts and network interfaces with QR codes.
Auto-Update
Automatic update checking with one-click installation. Updates are downloaded from clawide.app and verified with SHA-256 checksums.
Claude Code Hooks
Integrate with Claude Code’s hook system to receive notifications when Claude finishes tasks in any terminal session.
VoiceBox
Capture voice memos and quick text entries for reference across sessions and projects.
Agent Management
Create and manage Claude Code agents with global and project-level scoping. Define model preferences, allowed tools, and custom instructions for specialized agent behaviors.
MCP Servers
Manage Model Context Protocol servers with full process lifecycle control — start, stop, restart, and monitor servers with real-time status tracking and log viewing.
MCP Debugger
Connect to any MCP server and exercise it interactively — every transport, OAuth 2.1, tool invocation, resource reads, prompt inspection, per-server health checks, and a live JSON-RPC trace.
Task Manager
A Kanban board for tracking work across projects, with project or global scope, AI-assisted task breakdown, and Markdown-backed storage you can commit to git.
PromptForge
A reusable prompt library with Jinja-style templating, typed variable forms, compiled version history, and one-click insertion into your terminal.
Scheduled Jobs
Run prompts on a schedule — in-session loops at a fixed or dynamic interval, or headless cron jobs backed by the system crontab.
Zen Mode
A distraction-free focus view that hides all chrome and expands your workspace to fullscreen.
Quick Swap
A header menu for jumping between your projects and the MCP Debugger in one click.
Skills
Create and organize Claude Code skills — reusable slash commands with custom instructions, tool restrictions, and scope management.
Command Palette
VS Code-style command palette with file search (Cmd+P) and command execution (Cmd+Shift+P). Fuzzy matching, text transformations, and keyboard-driven navigation.
Markdown Preview
Live markdown preview with GitHub Flavored Markdown, syntax-highlighted code blocks, Mermaid diagrams, a table of contents, and synced side-by-side scrolling.
Dashboard
The central hub for all your projects. Create new projects, import existing ones, and navigate to any project workspace.
Themes
Switch between light and dark mode with a toggle in the top bar. ClawIDE auto-detects your system color scheme on first launch.
