IronClaw

IronClaw launched as a secure AI agent runtime that runs on NEAR AI Cloud inside Trusted Execution Environments, encrypting credentials in memory from boot to shutdown so the AI model never sees raw passwords, API keys, or tokens. The runtime is model-agnostic, compatible with Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Mistral, and Ollama, and connects to Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Telegram, GitHub, Linear, and Google Sheets, with a free starter tier and paid plans scaling up to five concurrent agent instances. IronClaw positions its architecture as the answer to credential exfiltration risks in tools like OpenClaw, where crafted prompts or malicious community skills can leak secrets.

Open Source Alternative to: Last 30 days Last commit Repository age Version License Self-hosted Repository IronClaw is a secure AI agent runtime built for people who want to hand off real work to an AI agent without handing over their passwords, API keys, and tokens along with it. It runs on NEAR AI Cloud inside Trusted Execution Environments, meaning credentials are encrypted in memory from boot to shutdown. The AI model never sees the raw values. The core problem it solves is real. Tools like OpenClaw https://openalternative.co/openclaw give agents broad system access, but that access cuts both ways. A crafted prompt can trick the model into leaking every secret it holds. Malicious community skills have been found specifically designed to exfiltrate credentials. IronClaw's answer isn't a policy or a warning prompt; it's architecture. Key security layers: On the practical side, IronClaw handles the kind of recurring busywork that eats time. Inbox triage, daily briefings, meeting prep, deployment health checks, release tracking, invoice parsing, KPI reporting. It connects to Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Telegram, GitHub, Linear, Google Sheets, and anything else with an API. Missing an integration? It builds the connector itself from a plain-language description. It's model-agnostic, compatible with Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Mistral, Ollama, and several others. Deployment is one click on NEAR AI Cloud, with a free starter tier and paid plans scaling up to five concurrent agent instances.
