Chelae is the voice-and-connection layer between your phone and your home server. You talk to it. It talks to the server. The server does the work. You hear back when it’s done.
It pairs without VPNs and without opening your firewall. It carries location context when that’s useful. It reads HomeKit and Reminders on your phone, so the server can act on them. It is the working app currently shipping as OpenClaw Server, refactored and renamed.
- 01 Remote access without VPNsReach your home server from anywhere — no third-party VPN, no open firewall, no port forwarding.
- 02 Push connectionsPhone and server stay reachable to each other — without polling or always-on tunnels.
- 03 Location contextShare where you are with the server when it’s useful. Off by default.
- 04 Speak, listen, type, chatWhichever fits the moment. Voice in, voice out, or text either way.
- 05 HomeKit and RemindersThe server reads and acts on HomeKit devices and Reminders, on your phone.
Chelae is in quiet development. Notes and a sign-up will live here when there’s something to share.
