Episode notes
Claudebot Is A Local Agentic Assistant
- Claudebot combines a local Mac gateway with messaging apps to create a persistent, agentic personal assistant.
- It integrates skills, memories, and terminal control into a Markdown-backed workspace for extensible automation.
Workspace-First Design Makes It Transparent
- CloudBot runs tools, creates integrations, and stores instructions as plain Markdown files in a workspace.
- This makes the assistant both transparent and easy to extend by reading or editing those files.
CloudBot Wrote A Todoist Skill For Me
- Federico asked CloudBot to integrate with Todoist and it wrote a skill, requested a token, and stored it in the macOS keychain.
- Within seconds he could manage Todoist from Telegram thanks to the self-created integration.
