Better-Clawd exists because the original had a genuinely great core idea and too many self-inflicted problems around it. This fork keeps what worked, fixes what did not, and gives people real choice over how they log in, which provider they use, and how much of the product they actually want phoning home. No telemetry. No vendor lock-in. Faster startup, lower idle overhead, and better long-session performance than the original Claude Code. Less corporate baggage. NPM package Install Or run it without a global install: Why This Exists Claude Code had the bones of a best-in-class coding CLI, but too much of the experience was tied to one company, one backend, one set of assumptions, and one way of doing things. Better-Clawd is the response to that. - It keeps the good parts of the original UX - It removes telemetry and unnecessary phone-home behavior - It supports multiple providers without turning setup into a science project - It improves performance over the original Claude Code, with better startup behavior, less idle background churn, and smoother long sessions - It is easier to inspect, modify, and run on your own terms Performance Better-Clawd is intentionally tuned to be leaner than upstream Claude Code: - Lower startup and initialization cost - Less background polling and idle CPU churn - Better memory and render behavior during long transcript-heavy sessions - Focused performance workflow and regression checks in PERFORMANCE.md Wh","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/x1xhlol","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/x1xhlol/better-clawd/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
