About LobsterAI

All-scenario office assistant Agent. The first open-source desktop-grade Agent among major Chinese tech companies, built by NetEase Youdao.

LobsterAI is a desktop Agent that can operate in your real working environment: local files, terminal commands, browser workflows, documents, spreadsheets, slides, IM channels, scheduled jobs, and project workspaces.

Cowork is the LobsterAI product/session layer. OpenClaw is the runtime and gateway underneath it. That split lets LobsterAI keep local persistence, permissions, UI state, artifacts, agents, memory, and IM bindings in the desktop app while using OpenClaw for agent execution.

From the project's README

LobsterAI is an open-source project written primarily in TypeScript, with 5.4k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in July 2026.
