No Linux. No Node.js. Just pure C** MimiClaw turns a tiny ESP32-S3 board into a personal AI assistant. Plug it into USB power, connect to WiFi, and talk to it through Telegram — it handles any task you throw at it and evolves over time with local memory — all on a chip the size of a thumb. ## Meet MimiClaw - **Tiny** — No Linux, no Node.js, no bloat — just pure C - **Handy** — Message it from Telegram, it handles the rest - **Loyal** — Learns from memory, remembers across reboots - **Energetic** — USB power, 0.5 W, runs 24/7 - **Lovable** — One ESP32-S3 board, $5, nothing else ## How It Works  You send a message on Telegram. The ESP32-S3 picks it up over WiFi, feeds it into an agent loop — the LLM thinks, calls tools, reads memory — and sends the reply back. Supports both **Anthropic (Claude)** and **OpenAI (GPT)** as providers, switchable at runtime. Everything runs on a single $5 chip with all your data stored locally on flash. ## Quick Start ### What You Need - An **ESP32-S3 dev board** with 16 MB flash and 8 MB PSRAM (e.g. Xiaozhi AI board, ~$10) - A **USB Type-C cable** - A **Telegram bot token** — talk to [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) on Telegram to create one - An **Anthropic API key** — from [console.anthropic.com](https://console.anthropic.com), or an **OpenAI API key** — from [platform.openai.com](https://platform.openai.com) ### Install ```bash # You need ESP-IDF v5.5+ installed first: # https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/v5.5.2/esp32s3/get-started/ git clone https://github.com/memovai/mimiclaw.git cd mimiclaw idf.py set-target esp32s3 ``` <details> <summary>Ubuntu Install</summary> Recommended baseline: - Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 - Python >= 3.10 - CMake >= 3.16 - Ninja >= 1.10 - Git >= 2.34 - flex >= 2.6 - bison >= 3.8 - gperf >= 3.1 - dfu-util >= 0.11 - `libusb-1.0-0`, `libffi-dev`, `libssl-dev` Install and build on Ubuntu: ```bash sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y git wget flex bison gperf python3 python3-pip python3-venv \ cmake ninja-build ccache libffi-dev libssl-dev dfu-util libusb-1.0-0 ./scripts/setup_idf_ubuntu.sh ./scripts/build_ubuntu.sh ``` </details> <details> <summary>macOS Install</summary> Recommended baseline: - macOS 12/13/14 - Xcode Command Line Tools - Homebrew - Python >= 3.10 - CMake >= 3.16 - Ninja >= 1.10 - Git >= 2.34 - flex >= 2.6 - bison >= 3.8 - gperf >= 3.1 - dfu-util >= 0.11 - `libusb`, `libffi`, `openssl` Install and build on macOS: ```bash xcode-select --install /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" ./scripts/setup_idf_macos.sh ./scripts/build_macos.sh ``` </details> ### Configure MimiClaw uses a **two-layer config** system: build-time defaults in `mimi_secrets.h`, with runtime overrides via the serial CLI. CLI values are stored in NVS flash and take priority over build-time values. ```bash cp main/mimi_secrets.h.example main/mimi_secrets.h ``` Edit `main/mimi_secrets.h`: ```c #define MIMI_SECRET_WIFI_SSID "YourWiFiName" #define MIMI_SECRET_WIFI_PASS "YourWiFiPassword" #define MIMI_SECRE
