PhoneClaw
About PhoneClaw
PhoneClaw is a mobile-native local AI Agent framework designed for phones and edge devices. It includes an iOS runtime and supports fully offline local paths, on-device models, and native iOS Skills. The framework allows users to perform tasks such as managing calendars, reminders, contacts, and health data using natural language. It also supports optional Mac Gateway inference for remote model execution.
PhoneClaw is optimized for mobile devices, focusing on local model inference, memory management, and interaction with iOS features. It includes built-in models like Gemma 4 E2B/E4B and MiniCPM-V 4.6, enabling tasks such as image understanding, live visual interactions, and personal data analysis. Users can also explicitly trigger internet searches or remote inference via a paired Mac.
The framework is designed to keep data processing local by default, ensuring that chat, images, and personal data remain on the device. Remote inference and internet searches are only performed when explicitly requested by the user.
