AEGIS Desktop

The desktop client that turns your OpenClaw Gateway into a full mission control center.

🤔 Why AEGIS Desktop?

OpenClaw is powerful — but managing it through a terminal or basic webchat leaves a lot on the table. AEGIS Desktop gives it a proper home:

• 💬 Chat — streaming responses, artifacts, images, voice, in-chat search, and multi-tab sessions
• 🎤 Voice Chat — real-time voice conversations powered by Gemini Live with intelligent Gateway relay
• 🔘 Smart Quick Replies — clickable buttons when the AI needs your decision
• 📅 Calendar — full calendar with Cron-powered reminders delivered to Telegram, Discord, or WhatsApp
• 📊 Analytics — see exactly what you're spending and where, broken down by model and agent
• 🤖 Agent Hub — manage all your agents from a single panel
• ⏰ Cron Monitor — schedule and control jobs visually
• ⚙️ Config Manager — edit your OpenClaw configuration with Smart Merge (preserves external edits)
• 🧩 Plugins — modular system with 9 built-in plugins, inline rendering, and persistent state
• 🔧 Skills & Terminal — browse the marketplace and run shell commands without leaving the app
• 🧠 Memory Explorer — semantic search and CRUD for agent memories
• 📋 Session Manager — monitor and manage all active sessions
• 📜 Logs Viewer — real-time Gateway logs with filtering
• 📁 File Manager — browse and manage workspace files
• 🌍 Multilingual — Arabic (RTL), English, Spanish, and Chinese out of the box

If you run OpenClaw, AEGIS Desktop is the UI it deserves.

🔌 How It Works

AEGIS Desktop is a frontend client — it doesn't run AI or store data. Everything lives in your OpenClaw Gateway.
