Because it’s just silly AI generated spam, don’t read too much into it.
aren't these supposed to be bannable offences?

> run locally via Ollama Are you saying this part is a lie?
Yes. In that I'm saying their AI generated slop README is misleading enough to be lying. When you prominently say "all without uploading anything to the cloud." but the default does exactly that, a single half-sentence mentioning Ollama doesn't cut it.
They talk about privacy first, they talk up local first, then their default settings are to send every syllable to someone else’s computer. Once you understand the app it’s trivial to make it a local, but there’s a good chance your first transcript is coming off a server unlike what the marketing material suggested.

#44I still strongly believe every developer should be vibecoding their own cowork/openclaw/devin Here are the prompts I use for my AI environment, though it's changed a bunch since the last snapshot https://github.com/rbren/personal-ai-devbox
Neat! I might give it a try. What do you mean by interfaces in "These interfaces can do literally anything on the host machine. You're responsible for your own security"? Also, your backdooring image links to a 404.

Thanks for the link. You mention security; is the _average_ developer safer going with OpenClaw?
