anyclaw
anyclaw turns any API, website, or CLI tool into agent-ready commands. Use it to search for packages, install them, and run commands directly from the terminal.
When to use
- When the user asks to fetch data from websites (Hacker News, Stack Overflow, Reddit, Bilibili, etc.)
- When the user asks to call an API (translation, IP lookup, etc.)
- When the user needs a CLI tool wrapped for easier use
- When the user wants to discover available tools or data sources
