Kjell Tore Guttormsen 2491f5c732 feat: initial companion repo for OpenClaw vs Claude Code article
40 files demonstrating every major OpenClaw capability using Claude Code:
- 3 agents (researcher, writer, reviewer)
- 3 skills (daily-briefing, slack-message, web-research)
- 2 security hooks (pre-tool-use blocker, post-tool-use logger)
- 10 self-contained examples with copy-paste prompts
- Complete feature map (20 capabilities, 11 full match, 7 different, 2 gap)
- Security docs including NemoClaw comparison
- Automation, messaging, browser, memory documentation

Zero dependencies. Clone and run.

# Browser Automation
## OpenClaw: Built-in CDP/Playwright
OpenClaw ships with browser control built in. It manages multiple browser
instances, supports profiles, and exposes `act` commands that combine
navigation, interaction, and extraction in one step. No setup required.
## Claude Code: Playwright MCP server
Claude Code uses the `@playwright/mcp` server. Same underlying engine
(Playwright), different integration model: the browser runs in a separate
process, and Claude communicates with it over MCP.
**Tradeoff:** The decoupled approach means the browser can be swapped or
updated independently. The cost is one extra setup step.
## Comparison
| Property | OpenClaw | Claude Code |
|---------------------|-----------------------|-----------------------|
| Engine | CDP/Playwright | Playwright |
| Setup | Zero | Enable in .mcp.json |
| Multi-instance | Yes | One per MCP server |
| Browser profiles | Yes | Via Playwright config |
| `act` shorthand | Yes | No (compose manually) |
For setup, see `playwright-mcp-setup.md`.
