Key Features
Sidebar Drawer
Full-height panel anchored to the right edge of your screen with native vibrancy. Slides in and out without covering your workspace.
Global Hotkey
Press ⌘+Shift+E from any app to toggle SideClaw. No need to click, find a window, or switch apps.
Rich Chat
Markdown rendering, syntax-highlighted code blocks, and streaming responses — a proper chat experience, not a text box.
Session Management
Switch between conversations seamlessly. Pick up where you left off or start fresh with a single click.
Model & Thinking Picker
Choose your model and thinking level on the fly. Switch between quick answers and deep reasoning mid-session.
Menu Bar App
Lives in your status bar with no Dock icon. Always accessible, never in the way.
Cron Job Management
Schedule and manage recurring AI tasks directly from the sidebar. Automate prompts on your own schedule.
Appearance Settings
Customise backdrop material, animations, and appearance to match your workflow and aesthetic.
Built For
Developers

Power Users
Run quick queries, automate tasks with cron jobs, and keep AI one hotkey away at all times.
OpenClaw Users
A native macOS frontend for your OpenClaw gateway. Fast, polished, and always at the edge of your screen.
Local Gateway Connection
