Captain Claw
The project documents an Ollama lane for local model use; desktop hardware and model downloads remain the user’s responsibility.
Captain Claw
Free local app · model and hardware separate
What does it cost?
The listed option is free to use. Hosting or model usage may still cost money.
Captain Claw is MIT-licensed. Local Ollama inference avoids a per-request provider API bill when a compatible model is selected. Optional hosted models, connectors, and any external services have separate terms and charges. No model weights are bundled. A compatible local model such as Ollama's qwen2.5-coder:7b is listed under Apache-2.0 at 4.7GB; confirm model compatibility and its license separately. Hardware, model download/storage, and electricity remain user costs. Optional hosted or API inference may be billed.

Installation and setup
- Check the official README and release notes for the current operating-system package and configuration steps.
- Install Captain Claw from the project’s official release or source-build instructions.
- Start Ollama locally and select a compatible model; the project’s optional cloud providers are a separate route.
- Test with a sample task and narrow file permissions before granting access to personal folders.
The MIT application is free. A local model uses your hardware and separately licensed weights; optional provider inference may be billed.
