# poco-ai/poco-claw

A more beautiful and easier-to-use alternative to OpenClaw. It features a nicer Web UI, built-in IM support, a sandboxed runtime and channel-based team collaboration. Under the hood, it is powered by a Claude Code–based agent.

## What it is
Poco is a self-hostable AI agent execution platform that serves as a more polished alternative to OpenClaw, powered by a Claude Code-based agent. It combines a Next.js web UI, FastAPI backend, sandboxed container execution, server/channel team collaboration, and IM integrations (DingTalk, Feishu, Telegram) in a Docker-deployable package.

## Use cases
- run a claude code agent through a web ui
- self-host an openclaw alternative
- collaborate with ai agents in channels and threads
- execute agent tasks in a sandboxed container
- control an ai agent from telegram or dingtalk
- schedule background agent jobs in the cloud
- let an agent browse the web and edit github repos
- turn chat messages into trackable agent tasks

## When to choose
- you want a beautiful, self-hosted web UI for running Claude Code agents
- you need team collaboration around agent runs with channels, DMs, and shared artifacts
- you require sandboxed, isolated execution that protects the host machine
- you want IM integration with DingTalk, Feishu, or Telegram
- you need MCP, Skills, browser automation, and GitHub repo integration in one platform

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight CLI agent without a web UI or collaboration features
- you cannot run Docker or self-host services
- you want a fully managed cloud product and prefer not to operate infrastructure
- you need an agent framework library to embed in your own application rather than a standalone platform
