Claw already exposes useful orchestration primitives such as session forking, resume, ultraplan, agents, and skills, but compared with OmO/OMX they were still high-friction to discover and re-type during live operator loops. This change makes the REPL act more like an orchestration console by refreshing context-aware tab completions before each prompt, allowing completion after slash-command arguments, and surfacing common workflow paths such as model aliases, permission modes, and recent session IDs. The startup banner and REPL help now advertise that guidance so the capability is visible instead of hidden. Constraint: Keep the improvement low-risk and REPL-local without adding dependencies or new command semantics Rejected: Add a brand new orchestration slash command | higher UX surface area and more docs burden than a discoverability fix Rejected: Implement a persistent HUD/status bar first | higher implementation risk than improving existing command ergonomics Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Reversibility: clean Directive: Keep dynamic completion candidates aligned with slash-command behavior and session management semantics Tested: cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli Not-tested: Interactive TTY tab-completion behavior in a live terminal session; full clippy remains blocked by pre-existing runtime crate lints

🦞 Claw Code — Rust Implementation
A high-performance Rust rewrite of the Claw Code CLI agent harness. Built for speed, safety, and native tool execution.
Quick Start
# Build
cd rust/
cargo build --release
# Run interactive REPL
./target/release/claw
# One-shot prompt
./target/release/claw prompt "explain this codebase"
# With specific model
./target/release/claw --model sonnet prompt "fix the bug in main.rs"
Configuration
Set your API credentials:
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
# Or use a proxy
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://your-proxy.com"
Or authenticate via OAuth:
claw login
