"OpenClaw's claim to fame is that it can take real-world actions on your behalf. Instead of living purely in the cloud, the agent runs on a user's own hardware, often on Mac minis, but you can run it with Windows, Linux, or what have you. Under the hood, it connects to one or more large language models (LLMs) via application programming interface (API),"
"Via these apps, users typically talk to OpenClaw specifying natural-language tasks such as "clear my inbox," "book my flight," or "summarize my meetings." Under the hood, the agent uses channels to receive those instructions and tools to execute them, wiring AI reasoning from Claude and other models into concrete actions such as checking you in for flights, generating or editing code, reconciling calendars, or spinning up scripts and dashboards."
"Moltbot, the cutting-edge, open-source AI "sidekick" formerly known as Clawdbot, recently rebranded as OpenClaw and is now crazy popular. It came out of nowhere to become the first viral AI agent with 70,000 GitHub Stars in a month. Its creator, Peter Steinberger, claims it's "the AI that actually does things." Yeah, well there are a lot of AI chatbots and agents that do things."
OpenClaw, formerly Moltbot/Clawdbot, rebranded and quickly gained viral popularity with 70,000 GitHub stars. The agent runs on user hardware (commonly Mac minis) but supports Windows and Linux, and connects to one or more LLMs via API. It exposes channels and tools that let it read email, run shell commands, browse the web, arrange travel, and operate apps. Users issue natural-language tasks like “clear my inbox” or “book my flight,” and the agent uses channels to receive instructions and tools to execute actions such as checking in for flights, generating or editing code, reconciling calendars, and spinning up scripts and dashboards. Long-term memory uses files like USER.md and IDEN
