Overview

ZeroClaw Lite is a community-maintained fork of ZeroClaw optimised for resource-constrained hosts. Default model is Phi-3 mini 3.8B (Q4); RAM ceiling is 4 GB. Runs comfortably on a Raspberry Pi 5, which the regular ZeroClaw does not. Drops the offline-RAG feature and several heavyweight tools to make this work. AGPL-3.0 like the parent project.
