Multi Channel Message Ingestion With Platform Agnostic Routing

via “multi-platform message routing with self-registering channel adapters”

A lightweight alternative to OpenClaw that runs in containers for security. Connects to WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Gmail and other messaging apps,, has memory, scheduled jobs, and runs directly on Anthropic's Agents SDK

Unique: Uses a self-registering adapter pattern (src/channels/registry.ts 137-155) where channel implementations declare themselves at startup based on environment credentials, eliminating hardcoded platform dependencies and allowing users to fork and add custom channels without modifying core orchestration

More modular than monolithic OpenClaw because channel adapters are decoupled from the main event loop; lighter than cloud-based solutions because routing happens locally in a single Node.js process
