Pixel Lobster
A transparent desktop overlay featuring a pixel art lobster that animates when your OpenClaw agent speaks. Powered by envelope data from your local TTS server β the lobster's mouth only moves during AI speech, not music or system audio. The app is fully bundled inside this skill β no external repository clone required.
Requirements
Node.js 18+ with npx available A running TTS server exposing GET /audio/envelope (XTTS on port 8787, or any OpenAI-compatible TTS via the OpenClaw TTS proxy) Windows or Linux desktop (macOS not supported)
Install
The app is included in this skill at <skill_dir>/app/. Install dependencies once: cd <skill_dir>/app npm install
Configure
Edit <skill_dir>/app/config.json before launching. Key settings: KeyDefaultDescriptionaudioMode"tts""tts" reacts only to TTS speech; "system" captures all audio outputttsUrl"http://127.0.0.1:8787"Base URL of your TTS servermonitor"primary""primary", "secondary", "left", "right", or display indexlobsterScale4Sprite scale (4 = 480px tall lobster)clickThroughfalseStart with click-through mode on so the lobster doesn't block clicksswimEnabledtrueEnable swimming animation
Launch
cd <skill_dir>/app npx electron . Or use the included helper script (handles first-run npm install automatically): bash <skill_dir>/scripts/launch.sh

OpenClaw Integration
With OpenClaw and a local XTTS server, set audioMode to "tts" and point ttsUrl at your XTTS instance. The lobster polls the envelope endpoint at 45ms intervals during active speech and 500ms when idle β no perceptible CPU cost. If you use the OpenClaw TTS proxy (port 8788), point ttsUrl at port 8787 (the XTTS server directly), not the proxy β the envelope endpoint is on the TTS server, not the proxy layer.
Lip Sync Notes
If the mouth movement is ahead of or behind the audio: Mouth moves too early: increase ttsPlayStartOffsetMs (default 1100ms) Mouth moves too late: decrease ttsPlayStartOffsetMs The default is tuned for PowerShell MediaPlayer on Windows. Other playback methods may need adjustment.
Mouth Shapes
Six visemes drive natural speech animation: A β wide open "ah" B β wide grin "ee" C β round "oh" D β small pucker "oo" E β medium "eh" F β teeth "ff" Plus X (closed) for silence and pauses. Spring physics and variety enforcement prevent robotic repetition.
Category context
Agent frameworks, memory systems, reasoning layers, and model-native orchestration.
