Clawdbot Daily

Lobster-grade daily summaries of the clawdbot/clawdbot repository. 🦞

What it does

• Pulls commits, issues, and pull requests from GitHub and groups them by day.
• Renders a fast, clean daily log with a “commit summary” activity feed.
• Uses MiniMax (Anthropic-compatible) to generate AI summaries per day.

Local setup

npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm run dev

Then open http://localhost:3000.

Environment variables

• ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL (required for AI): https://api.minimax.io/anthropic (global) or https://api.minimaxi.com/anthropic (China).
• ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (required for AI): your MiniMax key.
• ANTHROPIC_MODEL (optional): defaults to MiniMax-M2.1.
• GITHUB_REPO (optional): defaults to clawdbot/clawdbot.
• GITHUB_BRANCH (optional): defaults to main.
• GITHUB_TOKEN (optional): increases GitHub rate limits.
• CACHE_DB_PATH (optional): SQLite location (default ./data/clawdbotnews.sqlite).
• SYNC_INTERVAL_MINUTES (optional): how often GitHub is polled (default 10).
• MAX_COMMITS_PER_PROMPT (optional): commit threshold before chunking (default 2000).
• CHUNK_SIZE (optional): commits per chunk when chunking is needed (default 200).
• SUMMARY_MAX_TOKENS (optional): AI summary output cap (default 1200).
• DB_PERSIST_DEBOUNCE_MS (optional): debounce for SQLite export-to-disk (default 1000).

Notes

• Without ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, the UI still renders commit history but AI summaries are disabled.
• GitHub API rate limits apply. Add GITHUB_TOKEN for higher limits.
• Commit data, issues/PRs, and AI summaries are cached in SQLite for faster reloads.
• SQLite runs via sql.js (WASM), so there is no native build step.
• New items are synced incrementally; set SYNC_INTERVAL_MINUTES to control how often GitHub is polled.
