Cloud-native agent-as-a-service framework with one-click IaC deployment.

What it solves

AstroClaw addresses the problem of long-lived, monolithic AI agent processes that can be expensive to maintain and difficult to scale. It provides a cloud-native framework that transforms these agents into a collection of single-responsibility serverless components, making them more secure, scalable, and cost-effective by allowing them to scale to zero when idle.

How it works

The framework uses an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) approach to deploy agents as serverless functions (AWS Lambda) and managed databases (Aurora DSQL or Aurora PostgreSQL). It separates functionality into "Apps" (like Chat, Calendar, or Tasks), where each app has its own schema and business logic. System apps share resources for efficiency, while third-party apps are designed to run in isolated Lambdas with restricted database roles for security.

Who it’s for

Developers who want to build and deploy production-ready AI agents on AWS without managing permanent servers or paying for idle compute time.

Highlights

  • Serverless Architecture: Breaks monolithic agents into single-responsibility components that scale to zero.
  • Infrastructure as Code: The entire stack can be deployed using a single command via AWS CDK.
  • Flexible Database Options: Supports Aurora DSQL for low-cost, pay-per-request workloads or Aurora PostgreSQL for advanced features like vector search (pgvector).
  • Modular App System: Allows for the creation of separate "System Apps" and isolated "Third-party Apps" with distinct security boundaries.
