What it does
DramaClaw (Elastic License 2.0) is the drama production line its team runs daily: drop in a manuscript or screenplay and it structures the story, plans episodes, writes scripts, draws storyboards and first frames, keeps character identities across episodes, synthesizes voice-over and cuts the film. Its Xia Director agent also turns a brief into node workflows on an infinite canvas with 18 node types, Seedance 2.5 video and a 3D director stage for blocking and camera. An Agent Kit exposes the same workflows to Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw and other MCP clients. Runs self-hosted with Docker.
Use when
- Turn a manuscript or screenplay into a drama series
- Have an agent build a brief-to-final-cut workflow on a canvas
- Keep sets and characters consistent with 3D previs and asset libraries
- Drive drama production from Claude Code or Codex over MCP
- Make an interactive branching video story
