I've never run it, but isn't OpenClaw kind of useless if you sandbox it? I thought the entire point is that it has access to do everything. The danger with OpenClaw IMO isn't so much that your local machine gets hacked (although it's certainly a real danger), the danger is giving sensitive data to something horribly unreliable that can leak it or take actions on your behalf that are very dumb. I can understand (although very much disagree) with individuals running it, but trying to do it in the "enterprise" feels like playing with fire in a bad way.

#12I don't know about other people, but the name "OpenClaw" immediately signals jank and wrecklesness to me. Like, as a consumer, I will pretty much immediately write it off.

#13We also tried to use OpenClaw for teams but unfortunately OpenClaw gateway is not designed as multi-tenant. Peter also confirms it: https://x.com/steipete/status/2026820269050855757
That's why we built https://lobu.ai which is a multi-tenant implementation for proactive agents like OpenClaw. It has entity based memory for building the org context layer and every channel/user gets its isolated container.
Re: Show HN: OpenClawMachines – Extending OpenClaw to the Enterprise
#14My team fully abandoned our attempts to make OpenClaw or Claw-like agents work for us. We invested a sizable chunk of our R&D budget to setting various Claws up to help our software and QA teams. It took about a week after launch for the team to fully sour on the idea of using these systems. The biggest feedback we collected was that any tasks they assigned to the Claw systems would turn into tangled messes often req…
What kind of use cases where you looking to solve. In general coding, marketing and research projects are the sweet spot with these tools. The Claws have commoditized with Claude Cowork, Hermes etc entering the space.

Interesting. A different approach. I give every team mate their own openclaw on their VM. Would love to chat and compare notes.

I think it depends on the use-case. From what I have seen, seems to be used most for coding, research and marketing.
Re: Show HN: OpenClawMachines – Extending OpenClaw to the Enterprise
#17I was a basic user who happened to just TRY OpenClaw. Thankfully it was brief and thankfully I ended my session after being underwhelmed because the very next day, they were on the news for the wrong reasons. There is no way on earth I am trusting this or anything even remotely similar in an enterprise setting. In a way, it was course correction for me - I was super optimistic about AI until I saw how ugly it could g…
Do you use Claude or Codex, how different is it really?
Re: Show HN: OpenClawMachines – Extending OpenClaw to the Enterprise
#18Anything made in a couple of days or even hours is abandoned easily. This is how I felt when I saw the onslaught of OpenClaw tutorials months ago. I wonder how many of those influencers who felt they were so far ahead of the game are still using it and if they still feel the GAME has been SHOCKINGLY CHANGED.
This is true, the market has commoditized.
Re: Show HN: OpenClawMachines – Extending OpenClaw to the Enterprise
#19I wouldn't want OpenClaw anywhere near a business I was running, even if I was all aboard the LLM hype train. That codebase is a nightmare. Just take a look at the hundred-plus pages of bugs on the Github repo.
What agentic tools do you trust?
Claude, Codex, Cursor, Hermes.
With all the openAI token spend they get, where do you think the project will be in a year?

are you based on openclaw?
