Azure cloud networking -- VNets, NSGs, ExpressRoute, VPN Gateways, Azure Firewalls, Load Balancers, Application Gateways, Route Tables, Network Watcher, Private Endpoints, DNS zones. Use when auditing Azure VNets, troubleshooting hybrid connectivity (ExpressRoute/VPN), checking NSG rules, inspecting firewall policies, or analyzing load balancer health.

Federate your NetClaw with other NetClaw operators over the BGP mesh — exchange capability inventories and ask your claw what a peer can do. (US1; remote invocation and chat land in later phases.)

3D network topology visualization and interactive digital twin in Unreal Engine 5.8 via the built-in UE5 MCP server.
testing
Human-in-the-loop escalation via HumanRail — route low-confidence agent decisions, pre-destructive operation approvals, and ambiguous incident tickets to real human engineers. Human answers are verified and returned as structured output. Workers are paid via Lightning Network. Use when the agent is uncertain, when a destructive change needs explicit human sign-off beyond a ServiceNow CR, or when an ambiguous ticket requires human triage before automated handling.
testing
IPv4 and IPv6 subnet calculator - CIDR breakdown, usable hosts, previous/next subnets, address classification, VLSM planning, and dual-stack analysis. Use when calculating subnets, figuring out how many hosts fit in a prefix, planning IP addressing, getting wildcard masks for ACLs, or checking if two IPs are in the same subnet.
