Run AI Agents Locally on Windows: NVIDIA NemoClaw Full Setup (WSL + Docker)
Want to run your own AI agent on Windows? In this video I install NVIDIA
NemoClaw from scratch using WSL — the complete, unedited setup from a clean
Docker Desktop install to a running, sandboxed AI agent. No steps skipped.
I walk through the whole process step by step: enabling WSL and Ubuntu, running
the NemoClaw installer, adding your NVIDIA API key, picking a model (Nemotron 3),
building the OpenShell sandbox, approving the gateway network policies, and
opening the agent dashboard — including the real-world hiccups so you know
exactly what to expect and how to get past them.
If you've been trying to get NemoClaw working on Windows and hit walls, this is
the full setup start to finish.
