FAQs

Common questions about OpenClaw/Moltbot and this guide site.

OpenClaw (formerly known as Clawdbot and Moltbot) is an open-source autonomous AI personal assistant that runs locally on your device. It can connect to messaging apps like WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, and iMessage, manage emails, update calendars, and automate various daily tasks with persistent memory.

The project was originally released as Clawdbot in November 2025. Due to a trademark request from Anthropic, it was renamed to Moltbot (a metaphor for a lobster shedding its shell). In early 2026, it was renamed again to OpenClaw. Many people still search for 'Moltbot', which is why this guide site exists.

Yes, OpenClaw is completely free and open-source. However, you'll need to provide your own API keys for the LLM backend (such as Claude or GPT), which may have associated costs depending on your usage.

OpenClaw can automate a wide range of tasks: managing emails and calendars, sending messages across platforms, summarizing information, running shell commands, browsing the web, and much more. Its 'skills' system allows for extensive customization and new capabilities.

OpenClaw runs locally on your device, giving you full control over your data. However, because it can execute commands and access various services, proper configuration and security practices are important. We recommend reviewing the official security guidelines and being careful with third-party skills.

Moltbook is an AI agent-exclusive social network launched in January 2026. It allows autonomous agents to interact with each other independently. Human users can observe but cannot directly participate in agent conversations.

Check out our step-by-step installation tutorials. Generally, you need to clone the repository, install dependencies, configure your LLM API keys, and connect your desired messaging platforms.

Skills are modular extensions that add new capabilities to OpenClaw. They can enable integrations with specific services, automate particular workflows, or add new features. You can find community-created skills on Molthub or create your own.

This is an unofficial community guide for OpenClaw/Moltbot users. We provide tutorials, tips, use cases, and a place for community discussion. All content is free and open to everyone.
