NemoClaw Download

NemoClaw is distributed via an official NVIDIA installer script, Docker Hub images, and GitHub source. The fastest way to install is one curl command on Linux or macOS. Windows users need WSL2 first. For production evaluations, pull the Docker image directly. Source is available on the official NVIDIA GitHub organization.

Alpha Release Warning: NemoClaw 0.1.0-alpha is a reference stack, not a production release. Review the known security gaps before deploying in any environment with sensitive data.

Installation Methods

Recommended

Installer Script

One-line install for Linux and macOS with Docker.

Container

Docker Image

Pull the pre-built Docker image from NVIDIA NGC or Docker Hub.

Advanced

Source Build

Clone the GitHub repository and build from source.

Method 1: Installer Script (Linux / macOS)

The official NVIDIA installer script is the fastest way to get NemoClaw running. It installs all dependencies, the OpenShell runtime, and adds nemoclaw and openclaw to your PATH. Requires Docker Engine 24.0+ and 8 GB RAM.

# Linux and macOS
curl -fsSL https://www.nvidia.com/nemoclaw.sh | bash

# Verify the installation
nemoclaw --version

# Expected output:
# NemoClaw v0.1.0-alpha (OpenShell runtime v0.1.0)
# NVIDIA Corporation — GTC 2026 Release
# Platform: linux/amd64 (or darwin/arm64)

# Connect your first assistant
nemoclaw my-assistant connect

# Launch the OpenClaw terminal UI
openclaw tui

Script verification: Before running any curl | bash command, you should inspect the script content. Download and review it first:

# Download without executing
curl -fsSL https://www.nvidia.com/nemoclaw.sh -o nemoclaw-install.sh

# Review the script
cat nemoclaw-install.sh

# Execute after review
bash nemoclaw-install.sh

Method 2: Docker Image

Pull the pre-built NemoClaw image directly from NVIDIA NGC (recommended for verified integrity) or Docker Hub. This method is ideal for CI/CD pipelines and Kubernetes deployments.

# Pull from NVIDIA NGC (recommended — verified by NVIDIA)
docker pull nvcr.io/nvidia/nemoclaw:0.1.0-alpha

# Or from Docker Hub
docker pull nvidia/nemoclaw:0.1.0-alpha

# Verify the image digest
docker inspect nvcr.io/nvidia/nemoclaw:0.1.0-alpha | grep Id

# Run with a basic operator policy
docker run --rm -it \
  -v $(pwd)/operator.yaml:/etc/nemoclaw/operator.yaml:ro \
  -v $(pwd)/project:/workspace \
  nvcr.io/nvidia/nemoclaw:0.1.0-alpha \
  nemoclaw my-assistant connect

# Run Kubernetes deployment (single agent)
kubectl apply -f https://www.nvidia.com/nemoclaw/k8s/single-agent.yaml

Method 3: Build from Source (GitHub)

For contributors, security auditors, or teams that need to customize the OpenShell runtime, build NemoClaw from source. Requires Go 1.22+ and Rust 1.77+.

# Clone the official NVIDIA repository
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/nemoclaw.git
cd nemoclaw

# Verify the commit signature (recommended)
git log --show-signature HEAD

# Install build dependencies
# Requires: Go 1.22+, Rust 1.77+, Docker Engine
make install-deps

# Build the OpenShell runtime and NemoClaw CLI
make build

# Install to system PATH
sudo make install

# Verify
nemoclaw --version

Download NemoClaw on Windows

NemoClaw does not have a native Windows binary. You must use WSL2 with Ubuntu 22.04 and then run the Linux installer script inside the WSL2 terminal. Follow the complete Windows setup guide for WSL2 configuration, Docker Desktop backend, and the install process.
