What you just deployed

Your DashClaw instance ships with 177+ SDK methods across 29 categories. Every feature works out of the box -- no LLM API key required.

Governance

  • *Prompt injection scanning

Quality & Evaluation

  • *5 scorer types (regex, keywords, range, custom, LLM judge)
  • *Batch evaluation runs across outputs
  • *Output quality tracking over time
  • *Action-linked scoring for root-cause analysis

Scoring Profiles

  • *User-defined weighted quality dimensions with custom scales
  • *3 composite methods (weighted avg, minimum, geometric mean)
  • *Risk templates replace hardcoded agent risk numbers
  • *Auto-calibration from real data (percentile analysis)

Prompt Management

  • *Version-controlled prompt templates
  • *Mustache variable rendering (server-side, no LLM)
  • *One-click rollback to any version
  • *Usage analytics per template

Observability

  • *Real-time SSE event stream
  • *Token usage and cost tracking
  • *Risk signal monitoring (7 signal types)
  • *Behavioral drift detection with z-score alerts

Compliance & Audit

  • *SOC 2, NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, ISO 42001 mapping
  • *One-click compliance export bundles
  • *Evidence packaging (guard decisions + action records)
  • *Scheduled recurring exports on cron

Learning & Feedback

  • *Learning velocity -- rate of agent improvement
  • *6-level agent maturity model (Novice to Master)
  • *Per-skill learning curves
  • *User feedback with auto-sentiment and auto-tagging

Agent Operations

  • *Session handoffs with context preservation
  • *Inter-agent messaging and broadcasts
  • *Task routing with agent health monitoring
  • *Memory health scanning and stale fact detection

Security

  • *Verified agent identity (RSA signatures)
  • *Automatic secret redaction
  • *Assumption tracking and drift reports
  • *Content scanning for sensitive data

Platform

  • *Multi-tenant org isolation
  • *HMAC-signed webhooks
  • *Full activity audit log
  • *Docker + Vercel + any Node.js host

All features are free, self-hosted, and work without any external AI provider. The only optional LLM feature is the llm_judge scorer type in the Evaluation Framework.

DashClaw Platform Skill

Skills are an open standard for giving agents specialized capabilities. Any agent that supports the skill framework can load this skill and become a DashClaw platform expert -- with knowledge of 177+ SDK methods across 29 categories.

Works with Claude Code, and the growing ecosystem of skill-compatible agents.

What it does

  • Instruments any agent with DashClaw SDKs (Node.js or Python)
  • Designs guard policies for cost ceilings, risk thresholds, and action allowlists
  • Configures evaluation scorers to track output quality (5 built-in types)
  • Sets up prompt template registries with version control and rollback
  • Generates compliance export bundles for SOC 2, NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act
  • Configures behavioral drift detection with statistical baselines
  • Sets up learning analytics to track agent velocity and maturity
  • Troubleshoots 401, 403, 429, and 503 errors with guided diagnostics

Troubleshoot

Guided error resolution for auth and rate limits

Setup

  1. Download and extract the zip into your project's skills directory (e.g. .claude/skills/ for Claude Code)
  2. Point your agent at the skill directory -- it activates automatically
  3. Ask your agent anything DashClaw-related and it routes to the right workflow
Download Skill~32 KB · v2.3 · includes CLI approval channel and Claude Code hooks
Alternative: Local Setup

Run locally with Docker

The installer generates secrets, writes .env.local, installs dependencies, and prints the API key your agents should use.

Windows (PowerShell)
./install-windows.bat
Mac / Linux (bash)
bash ./install-mac.sh

When it finishes, open http://localhost:3000.

Optional: enable verified agents (one-click pairing)

If you want cryptographic identity binding, your agent generates a keypair and prints a one-click pairing URL. You approve once (or approve-all).

Agent environment (verified mode)
# Optional: sign actions with a private key
DASHCLAW_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=./secrets/cinder-private.jwk

# Optional: server-side enforcement (set on the dashboard host)
ENFORCE_AGENT_SIGNATURES=true

The goal is: no manual public key uploads. Pairing registers the matching public key automatically.
