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.
