What is NanoClaw?

NanoClaw is an open-source AI assistant that runs each agent in its own Docker container and is built on Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK. It was created as a smaller, easier-to-audit alternative to OpenClaw. It connects to WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, iMessage, and more, and supports per-group memory and recurring jobs.

📦

Container-Based

NanoClaw runs in containers for easy deployment and isolation. Spin up your social media automation agent in seconds with Docker.

💬

Multi-Platform Chat

Connect to WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, and more. Message NanoClaw from wherever you already communicate.

🧠

Memory & Context

NanoClaw remembers your preferences and past interactions. It learns your posting style and content strategy over time.

How Postiz Works with NanoClaw

NanoClaw discovers Postiz through its skill system. Add the Postiz skill to your NanoClaw fork and the agent reads the SKILL.md to learn every postiz command, then runs them inside its own container when you ask.

  • ✓Install Postiz skill with npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent
  • ✓NanoClaw reads the SKILL.md and learns all Postiz commands
  • ✓Authenticate with postiz auth:login (OAuth device flow) or a POSTIZ_API_KEY
  • ✓Skills are loaded on-demand, keeping the agent context clean
  • ✓Built on Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK, running in an isolated Docker container

Install Postiz

# In your NanoClaw fork: add the Postiz skill
npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent

# Sign in to Postiz (OAuth device flow)
postiz auth:login

# Or use an API key instead
export POSTIZ_API_KEY=your_api_key

# Check the connection

TikTok Posting with NanoClaw

Message NanoClaw from WhatsApp, Telegram, or Slack — it discovers your integrations via Postiz, composes your content, and handles the entire posting workflow from within its container.

🐳

From Any Chat App

WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or Discord

Send a message to NanoClaw from your favorite chat app. It runs as a background service in an isolated container, so it picks up your message, discovers your TikTok account via Postiz, uploads the video, and schedules the post — all while you go about your day.

NanoClaw

You: Post to TikTok about our new
  feature launch, schedule for tomorrow
  at 9am

NanoClaw: On it! Here's my plan:
  1. Found your TikTok integration
  2. Composing your post
  3. Scheduling for tomorrow 9:00 AM

  Done! Your post is scheduled.
  Post ID: abc-123
🐳

Scheduled & Proactive

Recurring jobs, requested in chat

NanoClaw supports recurring jobs you request in chat. Set up a recurring job that checks a folder for new videos and posts them to TikTok automatically — no manual trigger needed.

Recurring job (ask in chat)

> @Andy every weekday at 9am, check
  ~/content/posts for new files and
  schedule each one to TikTok for
  noon. Move posted files to
  ~/content/published.

NanoClaw: Got it. I'll run this every
  weekday at 9:00 AM and schedule the
  posts through Postiz.

Does Postiz work with other agents too?

Postiz works with any AI agent that can run commands or call MCP tools — you ask, the agent does the work. That includes Anthropic's Claude Code.

Claude Code

by Anthropic

Claude reads the Postiz skill so it knows what it can do, then autonomously discovers your TikTok integration, uploads your video, applies privacy and interaction settings, and schedules the post.

Claude Code

> Post my demo video to TikTok as public
  with duets enabled, schedule for tomorrow

Claude: Done! Scheduled on TikTok for
  tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

Can NanoClaw post to TikTok and other platforms at once?

Schedule the same video to TikTok and other platforms in a single request. Each platform gets its own settings.

Example

> Post "Excited to announce our new feature!" to
  TikTok and LinkedIn tomorrow at 9am, then schedule
  a daily tip on TikTok every weekday at 10am

NanoClaw: Done! Scheduled:
  - TikTok + LinkedIn: tomorrow 9:00 AM
  - Daily tips on TikTok: Mon-Fri 10:00 AM

What can I ask NanoClaw to post on TikTok?

You can ask NanoClaw for anything Postiz supports on TikTok: a single post, a scheduled batch, or a recurring job. These are prompts you would type in WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or Discord. @Andy is NanoClaw's default trigger word; use whatever name you gave your agent.

Public post, direct publish

Say to NanoClaw

> @Andy post clip.mp4 to TikTok tomorrow at 7pm, public, allow comments and duets but no stitches

NanoClaw: Sets privacy_level PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE, comment true, duet true, stitch false, DIRECT_POST.

Send to drafts

Say to NanoClaw

> @Andy upload the teaser to my TikTok inbox as a draft so I can add music in the app

NanoClaw: Sets content_posting_method to UPLOAD so the video lands in your TikTok drafts.

Branded content

Say to NanoClaw

> @Andy post the sponsored review to TikTok, mark it as paid partnership, and flag it as AI-generated

NanoClaw: Sets brand_content_toggle true and video_made_with_ai true.

What should I know before posting to TikTok from NanoClaw?

TikTok has a few rules that Postiz enforces at publish time. NanoClaw applies them when you mention them in plain language, and asks when a required value is missing.

  • ✓privacy_level is required: PUBLIC_TO_EVERYONE, MUTUAL_FOLLOW_FRIENDS, FOLLOWER_OF_CREATOR, or SELF_ONLY. Some accounts are restricted to certain levels by TikTok.
  • ✓duet, stitch, and comment are required booleans, and brand_content_toggle and brand_organic_toggle must be set too. NanoClaw should confirm these before posting.
  • ✓content_posting_method DIRECT_POST publishes immediately at the scheduled time; UPLOAD sends the video to your TikTok inbox as a draft to finish in the app.
  • ✓The optional title is capped at 90 characters. Longer captions get cut, so ask NanoClaw to keep it short.

Frequently asked questions about NanoClaw and TikTok

How do I post to TikTok from NanoClaw?

Install the Postiz skill in NanoClaw with npx skills add gitroomhq/postiz-agent, run postiz auth:login, and connect TikTok in Postiz. Then send NanoClaw the video with your caption, privacy choice, and time. It uploads the file through Postiz, fills the required TikTok settings, and schedules the post.

Can NanoClaw save a TikTok video as a draft instead of publishing?

Yes. Ask for a draft and NanoClaw sets content_posting_method to UPLOAD, which sends the video to your TikTok inbox. You then open the TikTok app to add sounds, effects, or edits and publish manually. DIRECT_POST publishes straight to your profile at the scheduled time.

Can NanoClaw control duets, stitches, and comments on TikTok?

Yes. Postiz requires explicit duet, stitch, and comment booleans on every TikTok post. Say "no duets" or "comments off" and NanoClaw sets them. Note that TikTok itself may restrict duets and stitches for some privacy levels or account types regardless of what is requested.

Does NanoClaw handle TikTok branded content and AI disclosures?

Yes. For paid partnerships, NanoClaw sets brand_content_toggle; for your own brand's promotional content it sets brand_organic_toggle; and for AI-generated video it can set video_made_with_ai. These disclosures are your responsibility under TikTok's policies, so state them clearly in your message every time.

Can NanoClaw post TikTok videos on a schedule automatically?

Yes. Ask NanoClaw in chat for a recurring job, for example "every Tuesday and Thursday at 6pm post the next clip from ~/content/tiktok". It runs on that schedule and creates the post through Postiz with your default privacy and permission settings. Review the Postiz queue to keep a human in the loop.
