Hey OpenClaw folks πŸ‘‹

We've been running OpenClaw daily on our own machines and kept hitting the same wall: the moment we walked away from the desk, we lost the thread on what the agent was doing. So we built Aerostack β€” a phone remote for the OpenClaw running on your own laptop / desktop / home server. iOS is on the App Store as of last week, Android is invite-only for now (DM me if you want in).

The non-obvious part β€” and the reason I'm posting this here specifically: it's a relay, not a data sink. Your prompts, tool calls, transcripts never hit our cloud DB. The daemon (@aerostack/gateway, open source on npm) runs on your machine; the worker just routes WebSocket frames between it and your phone. Disconnect and there's nothing to delete because nothing was stored.

What it does today, in case it's useful to you:

πŸ“‘ Live tab β€” every token + every tool call streamed from your laptop, no polling

βœ‹ Swipe-to-approve with glob policies (gmail__*, git push *) β€” only the dangerous moves gate

✏️ Edit args before approving β€” fix the commit message / SQL / recipient inline

πŸ’¬ Chat with the agent from your phone, inline approval cards in thread

πŸ”§ Install/manage MCPs, skills, channels, plugins from the phone

🧭 Pair multiple machines under one workspace (laptop + home server + VPS)

What I'd actually love from this channel

  1. How are you using OpenClaw day to day? (coding loops, research, automations, schedules, something weirder?)
  2. What's the moment OpenClaw lets you down or makes you anxious? (cost spikes, destructive actions, opaque long runs, something else?)
  3. What's missing from the list above that would make this genuinely useful to you?

Goal isn't to pitch β€” it's to make sure what we ship next solves real pain in your setup, not just ours. I'll be in this thread for the next 24-48h replying to everything.
