5 OpenClaw agents on 5 Mac Minis for homeschool, apps, and inventory
Jesse Genet is an entrepreneur and homeschooling parent who runs five OpenClaw agents, each on its own Mac Mini, layered on top of her Obsidian second brain. Hardware isolation is intentional: a bug in one agent can't cascade to another.
What Each Agent Handles
- Homeschool: curriculum management, progress tracking, lesson plan generation
- App development: coding tasks, deploys, GitHub repo management
- Inventory: physical item cataloging, location tracking, organization
- Finance: home budgeting, expense categorization
- Scheduling: calendar management, appointments, family coordination
How She Built It
Five Mac Minis, each running its own OpenClaw instance with isolated permission sets. Every agent connects to her Obsidian knowledge base for shared context but cannot access other agents' tools or data. Featured on ChatPRD's "How I AI" series.
Results: 5 domains automated with zero cross-contamination between agents.
