Claude Code is awesome, I use it all day, every day. OpenClaw is similar but not the same. I think if all you do is write code, CC is probably best for you.

OpenClaw is interesting because it does a lot of things ok, but it was the first to do so. It will chat with you in Telegram/messages which is small but surprisingly interesting. It handles scheduled tasks. The open source community is huge, clawhub is very useful for out of the box skills. It's self building and self modifying.

Claude Desktop app had scheduled tasks now for both Code and Cowork. For what I would use OpenClaw for it’s basically obsolete now.

We're all asking the same thing. It's basically Claude Code, AFAICT
