I’ve been running Clawdbot for the last couple weeks and have genuinely found it useful but running it scares the crap out of me. OpenClaw has 52+ modules and runs agents with near-unlimited permissions in a single Node process. NanoClaw is ~500 lines of core code, agents run in actual Apple containers with filesystem isolation. Each chat gets its own sandboxed context. This is not a swiss army knife. It’s built to match my exact needs. Fork it and make it yours.

We're back with another ShowHN! When we launched, you could text Jarvis AI using regular SMS messages from your phone. Since launching 3 weeks ago[1], we've introduced two new channels for using ChatGPT. Now you can use ChatGPT over SMS text message, iMessage for Apple-enabled devices, and via Email. It is super interesting to forward an email to Jarvis AI and see its thoughts on your email thread. It can help you brainstorm or it can suggest a reply to previous emails. 10 messages free forever, more volume is free over iMessage and Email for a limited time (until the HN hug of death!). You…

I've been using openclaw for a while and the one thing I think differentiates it from traditional setups is that the agent can take the initiative, meaning that you don't always have to prompt it for it to do something. I thought it would be cool to get real phone calls from my AI agent letting me know about urgent things I care about, so I went about creating clawr.ing. Openclaw has a voice call plugin but it needs a lot of setup with external services, API keys, and webhooks, and it doesn't let you do things like interrupt the agent or have it use tools during the call while you listen to…
