JiuJiu · Windows Desk Companion

Through a translucent always-on window, a tiny VRM who answers back, anchored to your day.

Chibi VRM on your desktop: bubble chat, a short persona quiz at first launch, check-ins and affinity that deepen over time; emotion tags drive expressions and animation; OpenClaw gateway wires agents, memory, and tools locally, with optional cloud auth and billing; fall back to on-device models when you need offline runs.

Three Pillars

Presence · Intelligence · Warmth

Emotion State Machine × VRM Faces

Replies carry emotion tags into BlendShapes and idle loops — calm, shy, bored shift without hand-authored sticker hacks.

OpenClaw Local Gateway

Mate-Engine speaks WebSocket to one gateway runtime: multi-model agents, memory, plugins, and tools stay coherent; cloud stays thin when you want it.

Many Channels, One Desk Soul

Route Telegram, Discord, and future inbox bridges into the same agent loop — reminders land beside your cursor.

Engineering Depth

Three Ground Truths

MATE × OPENCLAW

Emotion Tags Steering Real-Time VRM

Generative speech meets structured emotion tags — Unity schedules BlendShapes without brittle timelines.

UNITY DESKTOP

Translucent Shell, Everyday Presence

Transparent HWND plus realtime shading turns presence into pixels, not another browser tab.

LOCAL AGENT CORE

One Gateway, Channels In, One Companion Out

One gateway orchestrates models, memory, and plugins; Mate is one ingress among many.
