About This Project

HomeClaw Max is a compact, always-on AI home server that turns intent into automation logic. It understands natural language, reasons, uses tools, and turns intent into action. HomeClaw Max is built on an open ecosystem — not another walled garden. It brings 1,500+ supported brands and services, powerful local automations, HACS, and a thriving community. HomeClaw Max ships with one-click installation of Home Assistant, HACS, and its own Add-on Manager for selected services. Linux stays accessible for advanced users: SSH, Docker, Zigbee2MQTT, Mosquitto, ESPHome, Node-RED, Pi-hole, Frigate, and more.

Key Highlights

▸ Stop Programming Your Home. Just tell it what you want.

▸ A smart home should notice patterns, not just commands.

 ▸ HomeClaw Max turns intent into automation logic. You describe the outcome. It builds the logic.
