Add clear availability notices to platform documentation to reduce user confusion about app distribution: - Android: Add notice that pre-built binaries are not yet publicly available - iOS: Update notice to match Android format and clarify build-from-source option - Platform index: Add structured breakdown of companion app availability Changes address user confusion reported in Discord about missing download links and unavailable pre-built binaries. Users can still build from source or request early access via Discord. Fixes #1864 Co-Authored-By: Warp <agent@warp.dev>

# Platforms
|
|
|
|
Clawdbot core is written in TypeScript. **Node is the recommended runtime**.
|
|
Bun is not recommended for the Gateway (WhatsApp/Telegram bugs).
|
|
|
|
**Companion apps:**
|
|
- **macOS menu bar app:** Available for development builds (build from source)
|
|
- **iOS/Android apps:** Currently in internal preview; not publicly distributed
|
|
- **Windows/Linux companion apps:** Planned
|
|
|
|
The Gateway itself is fully supported on macOS, Linux, and Windows (via WSL2) today. You can use Clawdbot's full feature set via the CLI and web interface without needing the companion apps.

## Gateway service install (CLI)
|
|
|
|
Use one of these (all supported):
|
|
|
|
- Wizard (recommended): `clawdbot onboard --install-daemon`
|
|
- Direct: `clawdbot gateway install`
|
|
- Configure flow: `clawdbot configure` → select **Gateway service**
|
|
- Repair/migrate: `clawdbot doctor` (offers to install or fix the service)
|
|
|
|
The service target depends on OS:
|
|
- macOS: LaunchAgent (`com.clawdbot.gateway` or `com.clawdbot.<profile>`)
|
|
- Linux/WSL2: systemd user service (`clawdbot-gateway[-<profile>].service`)
