# Claude Code Complete Agent
|
|
|
|
A working setup that demonstrates every major OpenClaw capability
|
|
using Claude Code's ecosystem: tools, MCP servers, plugins, hooks,
|
|
agents, skills, and triggers.
|
|
|
|
Companion repo for the article
|
|
[Every OpenClaw Feature, Covered by Claude Code](https://fromaitochitta.com/openclaw-vs-claude-code-every-feature-compared).
|
|
|
|
## Why this exists
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw has 247K GitHub stars and 20 major capabilities. It is the
|
|
fastest-growing open-source project in history. This repo shows that
|
|
Claude Code covers 18 of those 20 capabilities, with 11 full matches
|
|
and 7 different approaches. Two gaps remain: Gateway/Control Plane
|
|
and Canvas/A2UI.
|
|
|
|
This is not a theoretical comparison. Clone this repo, open Claude
|
|
Code, and try each example yourself.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) v2.1.81+
|
|
- Node.js 18+ (only needed for Playwright MCP)
|
|
- A terminal (macOS or Linux)
|
|
|
|
No npm install. No Docker. No build step.
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://git.fromaitochitta.com/ktg/claude-code-complete-agent.git
|
|
cd claude-code-complete-agent
|
|
claude
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then try:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Paste the prompt from examples/01-agent-runtime/prompt.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
| # | Example | Capability | OpenClaw equivalent |
|
|
|---|---------|-----------|-------------------|
|
|
| 01 | Agent Runtime | Tool execution loop | Long-running daemon |
|
|
| 02 | Shell and Files | Bash + file I/O | exec tool + read/write |
|
|

|
|
| 06 | Multi-Agent | Agent Teams + SendMessage | Sub-agents + mesh |
|
|
| 07 | Messaging | MCP + Telegram Channels | 15+ native channels |
|
|
| 08 | Cron/Automation | /loop, CronCreate, /schedule | HEARTBEAT.md + cron |
|
|
| 09 | Security Hooks | PreToolUse/PostToolUse | Exec approvals + Docker |
|
|
| 10 | Full Pipeline | All capabilities combined | Complete workflow |
|
|
|
|
Each example has a self-contained prompt you can paste directly
|
|
into Claude Code.

|
|
## The feature map
|
|
|
|
See [feature-map.md](feature-map.md) for the complete 20-row
|
|
comparison table with verdicts and version requirements.
|
|
|
|
**Summary:** 11 full match, 7 different approach, 2 gaps.
|
|
|
|
## What Claude Code does not do (today)
|
|
|
|
**Gateway/Control Plane:** OpenClaw runs a WebSocket server with a
|
|
control UI and OpenAI-compatible API. Claude Code has no equivalent.
|
|
If you need a programmable HTTP interface to your agent, OpenClaw
|
|
is the better choice.
|
|
|
|
**Canvas/A2UI:** OpenClaw's canvas is an interactive HTML workspace
|
|
served by the gateway. Claude Code can generate HTML and preview it
|
|
via Playwright, but there is no persistent interactive surface.
|
|
|
|
These gaps matter most for always-on, multi-user automation. For
|
|
development and task execution, they are less relevant.
|
|
|
|
## Security note
|
|
|
|
The hooks in this repo demonstrate security patterns, but they are
|
|
examples, not a production security configuration. Review and
|
|
customize them for your environment:
|
|
|
|
- `hooks/pre-tool-use.sh` blocks known-dangerous commands
|
|
- `hooks/post-tool-use.sh` logs all tool executions
|
|
- `.claude/settings.json` has a permission deny list
|
|
|
|
Read `security/permission-modes-explained.md` before running
|
|
Claude Code on anything sensitive.
