What HiClaw is

HiClaw organises agents like a team: a manager agent decomposes tasks, worker agents execute, and humans supervise progress through instant messaging.

What you can do with it

Break complex tasks across worker agents
Monitor execution progress in chat
Introduce human checkpoints deliberately
Collaborate on multi-step workflows
Scale task handling with agent teams

Who it is for

Teams with complex task flows
Operations groups using IM heavily
Organisations wanting supervised automation

What to watch out for

Category misplacement: office automation, not a legal service
Multi-agent systems multiply failure modes; supervision is not optional
Agents touching company systems need access governance
Open source means self-hosting duties apply

FAQ

Why multi-agent instead of one?

Decomposition helps complex tasks; it also adds coordination failure modes.

Is it free?

Open source is described; hosting costs apply.

Can agents act unsupervised?

Design human checkpoints deliberately; unsupervised agents compound errors.
