Workers
Overview
Chat is great for quick questions. Workers are for bigger jobs — a report, a proposal, a small tool, a web page. Instead of answering in one shot, a Worker first makes sure it understands what you want, drafts a plan, then works through it step by step and delivers finished files you can use.
Each Worker is a self-contained project: it keeps its own conversation, its own files, and its own plan, so you can leave and come back anytime without losing context.
Creating a Worker
- Click Workers in the ClawSky sidebar
- Create a new Worker and pick a starting point:
- Blank — an empty plan, start from scratch
- Code template — anything from small tools, scripts, and web pages to complete systems
- Document template — for reports, manuals, blog posts, and any formal writing
- Describe what you want in plain language
How a Worker Runs
- Align on requirements — the AI asks a few key questions first, so effort isn't wasted on the wrong thing
- Draft the plan — the steps appear on the plan canvas on the right, so you always see what comes next
- Run step by step — each step starts when you click Run; nothing executes behind your back
- Deliver files — results land in the Worker's own folder as real files: documents, code, exports
As work progresses, the AI may adjust upcoming steps — splitting, adding, or removing them — like a project manager refining the plan. You can edit any step yourself before running it.
Snapshots & Rollback
Every completed step automatically saves a snapshot of the Worker's files, and you can save one manually at any point. If a change goes in the wrong direction, restore any snapshot and continue from there.
Templates
- Code template — turn ideas into working software without writing code yourself: from scripts and web pages to complete systems like a stock-analysis tool. The AI clarifies the goal, sets up the project, implements it step by step, and verifies that it actually runs before wrapping up.
- Document template — short pieces are written in one pass and refined; long documents get an outline first, then each section is written out. Export the finished document to Word or PDF in one click.
Any Worker can be saved as a template, so a workflow you've shaped once can be reused for the next job.
Files & Privacy
- Each Worker works in its own folder — open it in your system file manager anytime
- By default a Worker only accesses its own folder; you can optionally allow it to read your workspace
- Everything is stored locally on your device
