    It would be nice if one could sync dot files in the vault. For example, the .claude or .pi folder containing skills and whatnot.

    It's not a soluble problem, at least not completely. The big frontier models are better at resisting prompt injection, but any LLM is vulnerable to some degree. If you give it acce…

    Its original name was more distinctive but less "enterprise friendly". https://shittycodingagent.ai

    Many people use the Max subscription OAuth token in OpenClaw. The main chat, heartbeat, etc., functionality does not call the Claude Code CLI. It uses the API authenticated via sub…

    There's a lot of, to put it lightly, bullshit in this blog article, starting with when openclaw was released (late November 2025, not January 25, 2026). The first bit of config — "…

    More that moltbot is ugly and was chosen in a bit of a panic after Anthropic complained. No one liked it, including the people who chose it.

    They've recently added "lobster" which is an extension for deterministic workflows outside of the LLM, at least partially solving that problem. Also fixed a context caching bug tha…

    It's not. The guy behind Moltbot dislikes crypto bros as much as you seem to. He's repeatedly publicly refused to take fees for the coin some unconnected scumbags made to ride the …

    How do envision we might disarm an adversary with thousands of nuclear missiles, other than by preemptively nuking them and hoping they don't respond in time. Not really a plausibl…

    Yes, I write everything in Obsidian and use "Paste from Markdown" in Google Docs. It's a habit I picked up years ago when Docs was much less reliable and lost work. Plus, I want to…

    Small use case but I’m using skills for analysing and scoring content then producing charts. LLM does the scoring then calls a Python script bundled in the skill that makes a varie…

    A lot of it is internal politics. As a consultant, you see the tip of the iceberg. There may be rational reasons for seemingly irrational decisions that you're not privy to. Your c…
