A desktop runtime where an AI agent manages your web interactivity through one auditable command surface.
Buster Claw is a Phoenix/LiveView application wrapped in a Tauri desktop shell. It has no built-in LLM and needs no API keys. You run Claude Code or Codex in the built-in terminal, and Buster Claw gives that agent a durable workspace, a command catalog, and an audit trail.
Work lands in a durable Dispatch queue that Buster Claw projects to workspace markdown; the agent pulls items, does the work, and writes results back through the ./buster-claw CLI. The desktop UI gives you the command surface, the Sentinel audit feed, and the results.
Agentic command surface with ~160 commands across CLI and HTTP API. A real browser the agent can drive — acting in your visible tab — plus SSRF-guarded fetch, Google Workspace sync and actions, GitHub/Sentry/Umami integrations, and a read-only SEC EDGAR and Finnhub finance surface. Dispatch pull-queue for terminal-driven work. In-app terminal with a real PTY. Orchestration shifts with a supervised Elixir janitor, kill switch, and budget cap. BusterPhone voice answering machine and SMS relay. Workspace library for markdown documents and artifacts. Sentinel security layer with full audit trail and redaction.
Tauri v2 desktop shell, Elixir/Erlang backend, Phoenix LiveView web framework, SQLite via Ecto, PTY terminal via Tauri Rust shell, native-webview agent browser, Twilio and Supabase Edge Functions telephony relay, WebGPU WGSL backgrounds, Tailwind CSS.
Buster Claw is source-available, not open source. The app is a free download for macOS and may be used for anything, including commercial work — there is no license to buy and no account to create. The source is readable so the runtime can be audited rather than trusted on faith. Redistribution is not granted: you may not resell Buster Claw, repackage it, or ship a competing build from its source. The name, wordmark, and logo are reserved.
