Show HN: VidClaw – Open-source, self-hosted dashboard for managing OpenClaw (vidclaw.com)
2 points by lukasz_ma 3 days ago | hide | past | favorite | discuss
I run an OpenClaw agent named Jimmy. Jimmy handles SEO tracking, content writing, and code tasks for my projects. Managing it all entirely through chat got messy fast.

Thus I built VidClaw. It's a self-hosted dashboard that gives you:

- Kanban board where you drag tasks and the agent picks them up automatically - Real-time token usage - Model switching - Soul editor - Skills manager - Activity calendar

The whole thing binds to localhost only — you access it through an SSH tunnel. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Your data stays on your machine.

Stack: React + Vite + Tailwind on the frontend, Express on the backend, JSON files for storage (no database). Setup is one script.

I built this for myself, but figured others running autonomous agents might find it useful. Would love feedback on the approach - especially from anyone else managing long-running AI agents.
