IronClaw
Overview
IronClaw is a personal AI assistant, written in Rust by NEAR AI, that keeps your data local and encrypted. It runs on macOS, Linux and Windows through WSL, and is designed with several layers of protection against prompt injection and data leaks.
What it does well
Untrusted tools run in isolated WebAssembly sandboxes with explicit permissions, secrets are injected at the boundary instead of exposed to tools, and HTTP requests only go to approved hosts. You can reach IronClaw from a terminal, webhooks, Telegram, Slack or a web interface. It runs scheduled routines and background jobs, builds new WASM tools when you describe what you need, connects to MCP servers, and keeps memory with full-text and vector search.
Why it’s in the collection
IronClaw takes the always-on personal agent idea and puts security first, which is exactly where most assistants of this kind are weakest. You can use it under either the Apache 2.0 or the MIT license.
