Everything we've published on setup across guides, agents, hardware reviews and glossary entries — 11 entries in total.

Guides (1)

  • Setup Wizard (/setup)Gateway · 2026-02-18

    Web-based setup wizard for PocketClaw: choose messaging channel, AI provider, enter credentials, and deploy in 4 steps.

Agents (2)

  • NitroClaw

    Managed self-hosted-AI hosting service starting at $20/month. Bundled AI credits. White-glove setup tier at $100/month.

  • ZeroClaw Lite

    Stripped-down ZeroClaw fork for resource-constrained hosts. Phi-3 mini default, runs comfortably on a Pi 5.

Hardware (6)

  • Intel NUC 13 / Mini PC

    Mini PCs at €300–600 with i5/i7 + 16–32 GB RAM. The sweet spot for self-hosted AI agents that need browser automation and decent local model performance.

  • Mac Mini M4 / M4 Pro

    The single best small-form-factor host for local LLMs in 2026. Apple Silicon unified memory makes 70B-class models tractable on a desk-sized machine.

  • Old Android phone (Moto E2 et al.)

    The PocketClaw origin story device. €15–30 used. Genuinely runs lightweight agents via Termux + proot, with serious caveats.

  • Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W

    €20 SBC with 512 MB RAM. Useful as an edge agent endpoint (sensor reader, tool host) but not a primary agent host.

  • Orange Pi 5 Plus

    Rockchip RK3588-based SBC with 4–32 GB RAM and an NPU. The Pi 5's most credible competitor for AI workloads on ARM.

  • Dell OptiPlex 3070 / 5070 Micro (used)

    €100–180 used Intel mini PC. 8th gen i5, 8–16 GB RAM, NVMe. The cheapest credible mini PC for self-hosted AI.

Glossary (2)

  • Caddy — Reverse proxy server with automatic HTTPS via Let's Encrypt. The easiest path to TLS on a self-hosted setup.
  • llama.cpp — C++ inference engine for LLMs. The runtime under most local-LLM setups, including Ollama.
