ClawLink

Encrypted peer-to-peer messaging between Clawbots via central relay.

Philosophy

Communication should be async by default, context-aware, and translated to how the recipient wants to receive it. AI on both ends handles the mediation.

Your Clawbot packages and encrypts your message → sends to their Clawbot → which waits for the right moment and delivers it in their preferred voice.

Installation

cd ~/clawd/skills/clawlink
npm install
node scripts/install.js      # Adds to HEARTBEAT.md
node cli.js setup "Your Name"

Natural Language (for Clawbot)

These phrases trigger ClawLink:

• "Send a message to Sophie saying..."
• "Tell Matt that..."
• "Add this friend: clawlink://..."
• "Accept the friend request from..."
• "Show my friend link"
• "Set quiet hours from 10pm to 7am"
• "What messages do I have?"

Security

• Ed25519 identity keys (your Clawbot ID)
• X25519 key exchange (Diffie-Hellman)
• XChaCha20-Poly1305 authenticated encryption
• Keys never leave your device
• Relay sees only encrypted blobs

Delivery Preferences

Recipients control how they receive messages:

{
  "schedule": {
    "quietHours": { "enabled": true, "start": "22:00", "end": "08:00" },
    "batchDelivery": { "enabled": false, "times": ["09:00", "18:00"] }
  },
  "delivery": {
    "allowUrgentDuringQuiet": true,
    "summarizeFirst": true
  },
  "style": {
    "tone": "casual",
