NVIDIA NemoClaw is an open-source TypeScript CLI plugin that simplifies running OpenClaw always-on AI assistants securely. It installs and orchestrates the NVIDIA OpenShell runtime, creates policy-enforced sandboxes, and routes all inference through NVIDIA cloud (Nemotron models). Network egress, filesystem access, syscalls, and model API calls are all governed by declarative policy.

Status: Alpha — interfaces and APIs may change without notice.

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or later
  • Node.js 20+ and npm 10+ (Node.js 22 recommended)
  • Docker installed and running
  • NVIDIA OpenShell installed

One-Line Installer

curl -fsSL https://nvidia.com/nemoclaw.sh | bash

This installs Node.js (if absent), runs the guided onboard wizard, creates a sandbox, configures inference, and applies security policies.

Manual Install (from source)

git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw.git
cd NemoClaw
npm install
npm run build
npm link  # makes `nemoclaw` available globally

Environment Variables

# Required: NVIDIA cloud API key for Nemotron inference
export NVIDIA_API_KEY="nvapi-xxxxxxxxxxxx"

# Optional: override default model
export NEMOCLAW_MODEL="nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b"

# Optional: custom sandbox data directory
export NEMOCLAW_SANDBOX_DIR="/var/nemoclaw/sandboxes"

Quick Start

1. Onboard a New Agent

nemoclaw onboard

The interactive wizard prompts for:

  • Sandbox name (e.g. my-assistant)
  • NVIDIA API key ($NVIDIA_API_KEY)
  • Inference model selection
  • Network and filesystem policy configuration

Expected output on success:

──────────────────────────────────────────────────
Sandbox      my-assistant (Landlock + seccomp + netns)
Model        nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b (NVIDIA Cloud API)
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
Run:         nemoclaw my-assistant connect
Status:      nemoclaw my-assistant status
Logs:        nemoclaw my-assistant logs --follow
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
[INFO]  === Installation complete ===

2. Connect to the Sandbox

nemoclaw my-assistant connect

3. Chat with the Agent (inside sandbox)

TUI (interactive chat):

sandbox@my-assistant:~$ openclaw tui

CLI (single message):

sandbox@my-assistant:~$ openclaw agent --agent main --local -m "hello" --session-id test
