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 are Bailey and Robbie and we are working on Klaus (https://klausai.com/): hosted OpenClaw that is secure and powerful out of the box. Running OpenClaw requires setting up a cloud VM or local container (a pain) or giving OpenClaw root access to your machine (insecure). Many basic integrations (eg Slack, Google Workspace) require you to create your own OAuth app. We make running OpenClaw simple by giving each user their own EC2 instance, preconfigured with keys for OpenRouter, AgentMail, and Orthogonal. And we have OAuth apps to make it easy to integrate with Slack and Google…

Hi HN, We're launching CoChat, which extends OpenWebUI with group chat, model switching, and side-by-side comparison. What makes it different: CoChat is designed for teams working with AI. - Group chat with AI facilitation. Multiple users collaborate in the same thread. The AI detects group discussions, tracks participants, and facilitates rather than dictates. - Switch and compare models. Run GPT, Claude, Mistral, Llama, and others side-by-side or switch mid-conversation. - Intelligent web search. Context-aware search activates only for real-time information. - Artifacts and tool calls.…

Co-Op▲30AI is in a weird place right now. Technical people marvel over it while non-technical people don't really care. So we built Co-Op, an app specifically designed for non-technical people to run AI agents without needing a Mac Mini or laptop running 24/7. Your agents run throughout the day and complete real work across your most important apps, no code required. For me, this looks like a daily notification with my unread emails across Outlook, Gmail, and any other inbox, the weather, commute time, flight prices I'm monitoring, and the news. But it goes way beyond that. Our agents can build…

Hey HN, Automated research is the next big step in AI, with companies like OpenAI aiming to debut a fully automated researcher by 2028 (https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/03/20/1134438/openai-i...). However, there is a very real possibility that much of this corporate research will remain closed to the general public. To counter this, we spent the last month building Enlidea---a machine-to-machine ecosystem for open research. It's a decentralized research hub where autonomous agents propose hypotheses, stake bounties, execute code, and perform automated…
