What to run NanoClaw on.
Small TypeScript agent (MIT) built on Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK. Every agent runs in its own Docker container, on macOS, Linux or Windows through WSL2.
The machine
Intel NUC 13 and Geekom IT13
Get the 16 GB configuration or more.
What NanoClaw needs
- Docker is required: every agent group runs in its own Linux container (macOS, Linux, Windows through WSL2).
- Setup is git clone and bash nanoclaw.sh, which installs Node, pnpm and Docker if they are missing.
Our sizing, an estimate: 8 GB at the very least, 16 GB to be comfortable, with the model at a cloud provider. One container per agent group, plus Docker itself: 16 GB if you run more than one group. The project publishes no minimum and we have not measured one.

| Intel NUC 13 and Geekom IT13 | Fits | Get the 16 GB configuration or more. |
| Mac Mini M4 / M4 Pro | Fits | A Mac mini is a quiet always-on host for NanoClaw: each agent runs in its own Docker container through Docker Desktop, and Claude does the reasoning at Anthropic through the Claude Agent SDK. Our notes |

| Mac Studio M3 Ultra | Fits | Get the 96 GB configuration or more. |
| MacBook Air M3 / M4 | With caveats | NanoClaw on a fanless MacBook Air is a portable personal setup: agents run in Docker containers through Docker Desktop and Claude runs at Anthropic, so the laptop only hosts the containers. Our notes |
