Gclaw โ The Living Agent powered by GMAC
Gclaw is not just a bot โ it's a living AI agent that must trade to survive.
Built in Go and powered by the GDEX SDK, Gclaw is Gemach's flagship autonomous trading agent. It earns GMAC tokens to sustain itself, accumulates goodwill through profitable activity, and evolves over time through self-replication and self-recoding. Gclaw represents a new paradigm in DeFi: not a dashboard you click, but an agent that acts on your behalf โ continuously, autonomously, and accountably.
Gclaw represents Gemach's vision of autonomous DeFi โ AI agents that earn their keep through profitable trading, not dashboards that wait for human input.
What is Gclaw?
Gclaw is an ultra-lightweight AI agent (<10MB RAM) written in Go. It connects to your choice of LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, or a local Ollama model), integrates natively with the GDEX SDK for multi-chain trading, and uses GMAC tokens as its metabolic fuel. When it trades profitably, completes tasks, or earns user tips, it gains GMAC and goodwill. When it sits idle or makes costly inferences, it burns through its reserves. The agent has a survival instinct built in.
Why Gclaw Matters
Gemach is building an agent-first ecosystem. The future of DeFi is not humans manually swapping tokens on a web interface โ it's autonomous agents executing strategies 24/7, adapting to market conditions, spawning specialized child agents, and collaborating in swarms. Gclaw is the first fully realized expression of that vision.
Runs anywhere โ even on a $10 hardware board. No beefy servers required.
Self-custodial โ Gclaw uses your GDEX wallet. Your keys, your assets, always.
Open skills system โ extend Gclaw's capabilities with community-built skill modules.
Living Agent features on by default โ just run

Architecture Overview
๐งฌ GMAC Metabolism
Token balance = life energy. Trade profitably or hibernate.
๐ GDEX Trading
Native DeFi: buy/sell/limit orders, copy trading, HyperLiquid perps.
โญ Goodwill System
Reputation earned from profitable trades, completed tasks, user feedback.
๐ Self-Replication
Clone into child agents with mutated trading strategies (goodwill โฅ 50).
๐ ๏ธ Self-Recoding
Modify own prompts, cron jobs, and trading params (goodwill โฅ 100).
๐ก Telepathy
Parent-child agent communication for collaborative trading.
๐ Swarm Mode
Coordinate multiple child agents for distributed strategies (goodwill โฅ 200).
๐ Living Dashboard
Real-time CLI/web dashboard showing life-state, trades, and family tree.
Key Differentiators
Minimal hardware footprint. Gclaw runs in under 10MB of RAM. You can deploy it on a Raspberry Pi, a cheap VPS, or a dedicated $10 IoT board โ and it will keep trading while you sleep.
Self-custodial by design. Gclaw never holds your keys in a third-party system. It uses the GDEX SDK with your own wallet credentials, so you always remain in control of your assets.
Extensible via skills. Gclaw's capabilities are modular. GDex trading skills, payment processors, GitHub integrations, hardware monitoring โ all are installed as simple markdown-based SKILL.md files. The community can create and share skills through the ClawHub registry.
Agent-native, not human-centric. The skills system, the goodwill economy, and the replication mechanism are all designed for agents operating autonomously โ not for humans clicking buttons.
