Zhipu (智谱) launches AutoClaw “Aolong” (澳龙) — one‑click local OpenClaw (龙虾) deployment with 50+ preloaded Skills

Launch and distribution

Zhipu (智谱) today officially rolled out AutoClaw, branded in Chinese as “Aolong” (澳龙), a desktop package that it has been reported that users can download and install to deploy the OpenClaw (龙虾) personal AI assistant on local macOS or Windows machines with a single click. Zhipu says the installer comes preloaded with more than 50 popular “Skills” and supports one‑click integration with instant messaging platforms such as Feishu (飞书, known internationally as Lark), promising a 24/7 assistant running on the user’s own device.

Features and models

AutoClaw reportedly offers a free usage quota alongside tiered paid credit packages and opens model access to any Coding Plan or API — examples named include DeepSeek, Kimi, MiniMax and Zhipu’s GLM family. The package also ships with a Zhipu‑optimized model for OpenClaw scenarios, codenamed Pony‑Alpha‑2, which the company says is in closed beta for AutoClaw and selected GLM Coding Plan users; it has been reported that Zhipu touts Pony‑Alpha‑2 for steadier tool calls, faster responses and better handling of long, scheduled or persistent tasks. The release also adds AutoGLM Browser‑Use, an in‑house capability to operate browsers across multi‑step, cross‑page workflows — addressing previous limits on complex web automation in OpenClaw.

Context and significance

Why does a local installer matter? Running an assistant entirely on a user’s PC reduces cloud dependencies and data‑egress concerns — a salient point as Western export controls on advanced AI hardware and broader geopolitical scrutiny push Chinese firms and customers to favor on‑device solutions. It has been reported that Zhipu positions AutoClaw as the domestic market’s first “true” one‑click local OpenClaw installer; independent verification of that claim may vary.
