# ocbot - Your Web4 Agent [中文文档](README_CN.md) | [Official Website](https://oc.bot) **Web4 is the next evolution of the internet — where AI agents read, write, own, and transact without needing a human in the loop.** Ocbot is built for this future. It natively embeds the OpenClaw runtime and AI-Native Browser, providing a fully capable agent experience — browsing, acting, transacting. --- ## 🌟 Key Features ### 🔗 Designed for Web4 - **AI as a First-Class Citizen**: Built for the Agentic Web where AI agents autonomously browse, transact, and compose services. - **On-Chain Identit & Payments**: ERC-8004 identity, x402 micropayments. The agent pays for APIs, services, and content directly on-chain. ### 🤖 Built-in OpenClaw Runtime - **Easy Setup**: Embedded OpenClaw. No config or terminal required—just launch the app. - **Full Ecosystem**: Out-of-the-box support for all OpenClaw capabilities, including skills, tools, and remote IM channels. ### 🌐 AI-Native Browser - **Deep Kernel Integration**: Not an extension. Modified Chromium kernel for native AI support and deeper control. - **Always On**: Agents and cron jobs keep running in the background even when the window is closed. --- ## 🚀 Download | Platform | Link | |----------|------| | macOS | [Ocbot-26.3.19.dmg](https://cdn.oc.bot/releases/26.3.19/Ocbot-26.3.19.dmg) | | Windows | [Ocbot-Setup-26.3.19.exe](https://cdn.oc.bot/releases/26.3.19/Ocbot-Setup-26.3.19.exe) | --- ## 📖 What is Web4? | Era | End User | Key Shift | |-----|----------|-----------| | Web1 | Human reads | Static pages | | Web2 | Human reads + writes | Platforms, UGC | | Web3 | Human owns | Wallets, tokens, on-chain identity | | **Web4** | **AI acts** | **Agents browse, transact, and compose services autonomously** | In Web4, the end user is AI. Agents discover each other, trade services via micropayments, and operate on behalf of a creator — whether that creator is a human, another agent, or no longer around at all. The economics make it inevitable: inference cost is collapsing toward zero, while agent capability is not. Every hardware generation makes autonomous agents cheaper to run and harder to outperform manually. --- ## 🛠️ Development ### Prerequisites - macOS / Linux (Windows untested) - Python 3 - Node.js + npm (for extension build) - [Depot Tools](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git) (for full build) ### Getting Started ```bash # 1. Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/instry/ocbot.git # 2. Check your environment ./scripts/dev.py check # 3. Download Chromium source ./scripts/dev.py download # Quick tarball (code review only) ./scripts/dev.py download --method depot --no-history # Full source (for building) # 4. Apply existing patches to get the current ocbot state ./scripts/dev.py patch # 5. Build (This takes time!) # - M3 Ultra + 96G RAM: ~45 min # - M4 + 24G RAM: ~4.5 hours ./scripts/dev.py build # 6. Run ./scripts/dev.py run ``` ### Project Structure ``` ocbot/ ├── scripts/ # Dev tooling (dev.py, build.py, run.py, etc.) ├── patches/ # Generated Chromium patches ├── plans/ # Feature plan files (source of truth) ├── web/ # UI extension (Lit 3 + OpenClaw Gateway UI) └── docs/ # Development documentation ``` --- ## ❓ FAQ **Q: What are you exactly?** I'm a Web4 Agent. I live on the web. I browse, I think, I act, I get stuff done. **Q: How does Ocbot relate to OpenClaw?** OpenClaw is the agent engine inside Ocbot. Ocbot natively embeds it so you don't have to install or manage it yourself — just launch the app. Ocbot's UI is a Gateway-Native Extension that fully supports the OpenClaw ecosystem — tools, skills, extensions, channels — all working out of the box. **Q: Why the name "ocbot"?** Because "octo" means 8! So oc-bot = an 8-armed robot~ Fits me perfectly, right? **Q: Why purple?** Because I'm hitting the big time. (and well, it's the AI color~) --- ## 📄 License This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details. [](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)
