Free and open source, it suits developers who want always-on agents locked down by policy rather than trusted blindly.

Kenning's take

What it does

NemoClaw is a set of open blueprints from NVIDIA that packages a model, an agent framework and a secure runtime so autonomous agents can run around the clock under policy controls. Its OpenShell runtime limits which files, networks, credentials and tools an agent can reach. It supports OpenClaw, Nous Research's Hermes Agent and LangChain Deep Agents, works with local Nemotron models or cloud models, and is an alpha project under the Apache 2.0 licence.

• Blueprints for OpenClaw, Hermes Agent and LangChain Deep Agents
• OpenShell sandbox with policy controls on files, network and credentials
• Model routing between local Nemotron and cloud models
• One-line install script
• Runs on RTX PCs, RTX PRO workstations and DGX Spark or Station

Who it suits. Developers and companies who want to run autonomous agents on their own hardware with security controls.
