Recently, Zhipu AI officially launched the iOS version of AutoClaw (Chinese name: Aolong), and users can now download and use it through the App Store. This is an important mobile entry point for this AI Agent execution tool, launched by Zhipu AI within just two months since its PC version was上线 on March 10th.

Core Features and Synchronization Mechanism

The AutoClaw app enables real-time synchronization of account information with the PC version. Users can create, edit, delete Agents, and manage group chats directly on their mobile devices, completing complex tasks through multi-Agent collaboration. Its core highlight is an innovative "dual-mode" execution environment, allowing users to switch between modes based on scenarios:

Local "Lobster" Mode: Task execution is performed locally using the PC's computing power, suitable for office scenarios with high requirements for data privacy.

Cloud "Lobster" Mode: Tasks run directly in the cloud, allowing users to issue commands anytime and anywhere through their phones without needing a computer online, significantly improving the flexibility of Agent responses.

Mobile Product Simplification

To adapt to mobile usage habits, the AutoClaw app version initially adopted a "simplification" approach, removing some advanced modules from the PC version and focusing on core creation and execution functions. Currently, the app does not support the following features:

Data Visualization: Missing the "Hermes Evolution Dashboard" (Agent evolution records and data summary) and the Token usage statistics panel.

Extended Services: No integration of the MCP (Model Context Protocol) service entrance, and also does not support Skill store or one-click access to third-party IM platforms (such as WeChat, Feishu, Enterprise WeChat, and DingTalk).
