AgentScope AI

AgentTeams (formerly HiClaw)

The renamed successor to HiClaw: an open-source collaborative multi-agent runtime for transparent human-in-the-loop coordination through Matrix rooms.

Globally availableFull English UILimited APIFree

Quick answer

AgentTeams belongs in Productivity because its core value is collaborative agent orchestration, not model hosting or a narrow coding workflow.

Pricing detailsUse-case fitSource evidence

AgentTeams is the current name of the project formerly released as HiClaw. Version 1.2.0 established the new naming and Team/Worker contracts; stable 1.2.3 adds visible project workflows with pause, resume, replan and complete controls, intervention history, Worker checkpoints and a newer dashboard, while retaining managed Worker Skills and multi-architecture images. QwenPaw is the default runtime. Its Manager-Workers architecture orchestrates OpenClaw, QwenPaw and Hermes containers in controlled, auditable Matrix rooms. Shared MinIO storage, a Higress AI Gateway, Kubernetes-native control-plane components and Helm support enterprise collaboration. Workers hold consumer tokens while real credentials remain in the gateway, so production deployments still require authentication, TLS and network isolation.

Editorial verdict

Best for

Teams that need a self-hosted, auditable multi-agent operating layer for enterprise collaboration and task orchestration.

Avoid if

Avoid it if you only want a lightweight single-agent assistant or a hosted API with minimal setup.

Why it matters

AgentTeams belongs in Productivity because its core value is collaborative agent orchestration, not model hosting or a narrow coding workflow.

Pricing

Apache-2.0 open-source project; self-hosted Docker or Helm deployment with provider and infrastructure costs

Payment

Self-hosted open source, Docker, Helm on Kubernetes, Configured model provider billing

Commercial use

Commercial use should follow the current product, API, model license and billing terms.

Privacy

Review prompt, file, media upload, retention and training-use terms before sensitive workloads.

Use-case fit

Enterprise agent orchestration

Strong

Use Manager and multiple Workers to assign, monitor and intervene in complex collaborative tasks.

Auditable human-in-the-loop workflows

Strong

Matrix rooms keep every action visible and allow operators to step in at any time.

Self-hosted multi-runtime experiments

Medium

OpenClaw, QwenPaw and Hermes can coexist in the same room for runtime comparison.

Global user checklist

RegistrationConfirmedPublic GitHub repo and documented install flows are available.
English UIConfirmedThe repository and docs are English-facing, with Chinese and Japanese variants.
API and docsPartialDocs cover Docker, Helm, controller, IM channels and skill workflows, but it is not a hosted API product.
Commercial usePartialApache-2.0 is permissive, but deployment usage depends on the models and infrastructure you plug in.
Data and privacy termsReviewWorkers are isolated from real credentials, but room content, logs and file data still need policy review.

Model names, quotas, release status, regional access and commercial terms can change quickly; recheck official sources before procurement or production use.

Pros

  • - Transparent Matrix room workflow with human-in-the-loop intervention
  • - Manager-Workers orchestration across multiple runtimes
  • - Kubernetes-native control plane, Docker install and Helm support
  • - Version 1.2.3 adds project pause, resume, replan and completion controls plus Worker checkpoints

Cons

  • - It is an orchestration platform, not a turnkey agent product
  • - Production exposure requires authentication and network isolation
  • - Teams must still choose and configure provider models and runtimes

AgentTeams 1.2.3 adds project workflow controls

AgentTeams 1.2.3 adds visible project workflows with pause, resume, replan and complete controls, intervention history, Worker checkpoints and a newer dashboard. QwenPaw becomes the default runtime while the Manager-Workers, Matrix, MinIO, gateway and Kubernetes boundaries remain in place.

Release · 2026-08-08

AgentTeams 1.2.2 adds managed Worker Skills

AgentTeams 1.2.2 lets the Manager validate, upload and assign custom Worker Skills, while QwenPaw workers can hot-sync and enable them without restarting. The release also adds Worker skill-loading safeguards, fixes Matrix team-room joining and publishes amd64 and arm64 images.

Release · 2026-08-04

HiClaw is now AgentTeams

AgentScope AI completed the public rename from HiClaw to AgentTeams and released v1.2.0 stable. The current repository standardizes Team and Worker contracts across container images, Kubernetes APIs, Helm, Matrix, storage and runtimes, while adding an optional dashboard and retaining OpenClaw, QwenPaw and Hermes collaboration.

Open source · 2026-05-18

QwenPaw worker runtime added

QwenPaw is now tracked in Productivity as a lightweight Worker runtime in the HiClaw ecosystem, covering browser automation, quick tasks, coexistence with OpenClaw and Hermes, and the shared Matrix / MinIO / Higress / Kubernetes deployment stack.
