Implementation of the Claude Code npm source architecture in Python.
|
||||
<h1 align="center">Claw Code Agent</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
This repository builds on the public porting workspace from [instructkr/claw-code](https://github.com/instructkr/claw-code) and extends it into a usable Python local-model agent. The active repository is [HarnessLab/claw-code-agent](https://github.com/HarnessLab/claw-code-agent). The goal is not to ship the npm source itself, but to reimplement the agent flow in Python: prompt assembly, context building, slash commands, tool calling, and local model execution.

The Python runtime is working, but it is not full feature parity with the npm implementation yet.

|
||||
|
||||
Implemented now:
|
||||
## 📖 About
|
||||
|
||||
- Python CLI agent loop
|
||||
- OpenAI-compatible local model backend
|
||||
- Qwen3-Coder support through `vLLM`
|
||||
- core tools: file read/write/edit, glob, grep, shell
|
||||
- context building and `/context`-style usage reporting
|
||||
- local slash commands such as `/help`, `/context`, `/tools`, `/memory`, `/status`
|
||||
- unit tests for the Python runtime
|
||||
This repository reimplements the [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) npm agent architecture **entirely in Python**, designed to run with **local open-source models** via an OpenAI-compatible API server.
|
||||
|
||||
Not complete yet:
|
||||
Built on the public porting workspace from [instructkr/claw-code](https://github.com/instructkr/claw-code), the active development lives at [HarnessLab/claw-code-agent](https://github.com/HarnessLab/claw-code-agent).
|
||||
|
||||
- full plugin and MCP parity
|
||||
- complete slash-command parity
|
||||
- full interactive REPL/session persistence parity
|
||||
- tokenizer-accurate context accounting
|
||||
> **Goal:** Not to ship the original npm source, but to reimplement the full agent flow in Python — prompt assembly, context building, slash commands, tool calling, session persistence, and local model execution.

## Start `vLLM` With Qwen3-Coder
|
||||
## 🚀 Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
For Qwen3-Coder tool calling, `vLLM` must be started with automatic tool choice enabled. The official `vLLM` tool-calling docs describe `--enable-auto-tool-choice` and `--tool-call-parser`, and Qwen3-Coder should use the `qwen3_xml` parser:

||||

Example:

vLLM must be started with automatic tool choice enabled. Use the `qwen3_xml` parser for Qwen3-Coder tool calling:

||||
|
||||

|
||||
|---------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `/help` | `/commands` | Show built-in slash commands |

|
||||
python3 -m src.main agent "/tools" --cwd .
|
||||
python3 -m src.main agent "/status" --cwd .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Each real `agent` run now saves a resumable session and prints:
|
||||
### Utility Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 -m src.main summary # Workspace summary
|
||||
python3 -m src.main manifest # Workspace manifest
|
||||

||||
python3 -m src.main tools --limit 10 # Tool inventory
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 Built-in Tools
|
||||
|
||||
The agent has access to 7 core tools:
|
||||
|
||||
| Tool | Description | Permission |
|
||||
|------|-------------|------------|
|
||||
| `list_dir` | List files and directories | 🟢 Always |
|
||||
| `read_file` | Read file contents (with line ranges) | 🟢 Always |
|
||||
| `write_file` | Write or create files | 🟡 `--allow-write` |
|
||||
| `edit_file` | Edit files via exact string matching | 🟡 `--allow-write` |
|
||||
| `glob_search` | Find files by glob pattern | 🟢 Always |
|
||||
| `grep_search` | Search file contents by regex | 🟢 Always |
|
||||
| `bash` | Execute shell commands | 🔴 `--allow-shell` |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔄 Session Persistence
|
||||
|
||||
Each `agent` run automatically saves a resumable session:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
session_id=...
|
||||
session_path=...
|
||||
session_id=4f2c8c6f9c0e4d7c9c7b1b2a3d4e5f67
|
||||
session_path=.port_sessions/agent/4f2c8c6f...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Resume a previous session:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 -m src.main agent-resume \
|
||||
<session-id> \
|
||||
"Continue the previous task and finish the missing implementation."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Resume A Previous Session
|
||||
|
||||
Each real `agent` run saves a resumable session automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
After a run finishes, the CLI prints:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
session_id=...
|
||||
session_path=...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can continue the same task later by passing the saved session id:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 -m src.main agent-resume \
|
||||
<session-id> \
|
||||
4f2c8c6f9c0e4d7c9c7b1b2a3d4e5f67 \
|
||||
"Continue the previous task and finish the missing parts."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 -m src.main agent-resume \
|
||||
4f2c8c6f9c0e4d7c9c7b1b2a3d4e5f67 \
|
||||
"Continue building the customer e-commerce project and complete the checkout flow."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Session files are stored under:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
.port_sessions/agent/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can inspect saved sessions with:
|
||||
Inspect saved sessions:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ls -lt .port_sessions/agent
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Important notes:
|
||||
> **Note:** Run `agent-resume` from the same `claw-code/` directory where the session was created. A resumed session continues from the saved transcript, not from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
- Run `agent-resume` from the same `claw-code/` repository where the session was created.
|
||||
- If you use `--show-transcript`, the session id is printed after the run output.
|
||||
- A resumed session continues from the saved transcript, not from scratch.

## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- The Python agent is still CLI-based, but sessions are now persisted and can be resumed with `agent-resume`.
|
||||
- `--allow-write` is required before the agent can modify files.
|
||||
- `--allow-shell` is required before the agent can execute shell commands.
|
||||
- `--unsafe` additionally allows destructive shell operations.
|
||||
|
||||
