ZeroClaw (nickname Claw) is a small AI agent for cluster work: check Flux status, explain failing pods, dry-run Renovate, draft Git patches. It shares the same GitOps monorepo as the cluster — it is not a second control plane.

You talk to it on Matrix at matrix.this-is-fine.social. Web fetches go through MCP to a Scrapling sidecar instead of built-in browser tools, so there is one audited path for HTTP.

The agent is deliberately ops-focused. It is not a general chatbot for the public internet; it reads cluster state, follows skills checked into Git, and proposes changes that still pass human review. That keeps expectations aligned with what automation can safely do inside a production-shaped lab.
