The first time you open it

  1. Run the downloaded installer.
  2. If Microsoft Defender SmartScreen says it protected your PC, click More info, then Run anyway.
  3. ClawMuse installs and opens by itself, with shortcuts on the desktop and in the Start menu.
  4. That's the only time. Later launches don't ask again.

What happens on first launch

ClawMuse sets up its assistant on your computer the first time it opens — a few minutes on a new machine, with progress shown as it goes. Then it looks for a model you already have (a Claude Code sign-in, an API key, or Ollama or LM Studio running locally) and offers it with one button. If it finds nothing, it walks you through adding one. After that it asks what you're working toward.

Why does my computer ask me to confirm?

This release isn't signed with an Apple Developer ID or a Microsoft code-signing certificate yet, so macOS Gatekeeper and Windows SmartScreen can't vouch for the publisher and ask you to confirm once. The steps above are the standard way to open an app from outside the App Store or Microsoft Store. To check that the file you have is exactly the one published here, compare its checksum below.

Removing ClawMuse

Open Settings → Data controls → Remove ClawMuse. It stops the assistant, deletes everything it stored and removes the app. On Windows, uninstalling from Settings → Apps removes the program but keeps your chats and settings in case you reinstall; use Remove ClawMuse to delete those too.
