Note Excited about Anthropic's Claude Science (launched June 30, 2026)? Dr. Claw has been shipping the same vision since February 2026 — and it's fully open source, model-agnostic (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, plus hundreds of models via OpenRouter), and runs on your own machine with your own data and GPUs. It also covers the full research lifecycle — survey → ideation → experiments → paper writing → slides & promotion — not just computational analysis. Free to use; no subscription required.
Dr. Claw is a general-purpose AI research assistant designed to help researchers and builders execute end-to-end projects across different domains. From shaping an initial idea to running experiments and preparing publication-ready outputs, Dr. Claw keeps the full workflow in one place so teams can focus on research quality and iteration speed.

📚 Skills Library — 100+ built-in research skills, auto-discovered and applied by agents
The Philosophy: Leveraged Cognition
Manual work is too slow. Fully automated AI is too generic. Vibe Researching is the new frontier. Dr. Claw turns your Research Taste into outsized outcomes with Agentic Execution--so you can move faster, think bigger, and still hold the line on scientific rigor.
2026-11-10 — A new session keeps its first message on screen and always starts in Research mode.2026-11-06 — Pick which skills are on by default (globally or per project) in a new card-based Skills Library, or choose a preset on first launch. The built-in library is trimmed to 121 working skills, and skills you import now live outside the app so updates keep them. The left sidebar shows one line per project and session and can search inside session messages; the Files panel is a compact tree. The first launch after installing or upgrading also loads reliably now.2026-11-05 — A project-centered workspace with a cleaner chat composer and unified controls. The desktop app signs you in automatically, and local models can now run on vLLM and SGLang as well as Ollama. Download it from GitHub Releases.2026-08-22 — Our paper Dr. Claw: An AI Scientist Workspace for Vibe Research has been accepted to the EMNLP 2026 System Demonstrations track!
