"LLM backends: Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter."
And here I was hoping that this was local inference :)

Sure. Why purchase a H200 if you can go with an ESP32 ^^

haha well I got something ridiculous coming soon for zclaw that will kinda work on board.. will require the S3 variant tho, needs a little more memory. Training it later today.

right, 888 kB would be impossible for local inference
however, it is really not that impressive for just a client

It's not completely impossible, depending on what your expectations are. That language model that was built out of redstone in minecraft had... looks like 5 million parameters. And it could do mostly coherent sentences.

Is there a heartbeat alternative? I feel like this is the magic behind OpenClaw and what gives it the "self-driven" feel.

Serious question: why? What are the use cases and workflows?

I don't fully get it either. At least agents build stuff, claws just run around pretending to be alive?

I don't really need any assistance...

Me neither.
But I have 10-15 ESP32's just waiting for a useful project. Does HN have better suggestions?
