Buddy

Always-on voice → AI agent. iOS app keeps a rolling buffer of the last 30 seconds of audio (configurable). Press the Action Button → the clip flies to your OpenClaw agent → transcription + task delivery happens server-side. Reply lands on whatever channel your agent uses (WhatsApp, Slack, etc.).

Repo layout

Path	Purpose
Buddy/	iOS app source (SwiftUI + AppIntents + AVFoundation rolling buffer + background URLSessionUploadTask)
openclaw-plugin/	OpenClaw plugin: HTTP route + STT (BYOK) + agent injection
project.yml	XcodeGen config — regenerates Buddy.xcodeproj
tools/generate-icon.swift	App-icon generator (PNG via CoreGraphics)

Run the iOS app

brew install xcodegen
cd /path/to/buddy
xcodegen generate
open Buddy.xcodeproj

In Xcode: set your Development Team in Signing & Capabilities → run on a real iPhone.

Install the plugin into your OpenClaw

openclaw plugins install clawhub:@adaminspaceship/buddy
openclaw plugins configure buddy
openclaw gateway restart

Then point the iOS app at the plugin: Buddy → Settings → URL = https://<your-host>/buddy/voice. Or scan a QR from buddy://configure?endpoint=<urlencoded>&token=<bearer> for instant setup.

See openclaw-plugin/README.md for plugin internals.
