agents-io/PokeClaw

PokeClaw runs Gemma 4 fully on-device and lets it actually control an Android phone — tap, swipe, fill forms, launch apps — without any cloud call or API key. The on-device angle is not just a privacy talking point: it means this works on a plane, in a regulated environment, or anywhere you would rather not send screen content to a remote server. What separates it from the pile of phone-agent demos is that it ships working today with no backend to spin up. The obvious limitation is hardware: you need a reasonably capable Android device to avoid watching it grind. The use cases that snap into focus immediately are test automation, accessibility tooling, and building lightweight personal automations without paying per-inference. Still early — the repo is young and edge cases will be rough — but the core capability is real and the zero-dependency posture is a genuine differentiator. -> Best for: indie hacker or AI engineer building Android automation or accessibility tooling without a cloud dependency
