OpenClaw
Open-source self-hosted personal AI agent framework with a public skill registry (ClawHub) that runs across multiple messaging channels.
Last release Sep 8, 2026 · Last commit Sep 6, 2026 · ★ 389,009
Overview
OpenClaw (formerly Clawd/Moltbot) is an open-source, locally-running AI assistant that connects to messaging channels like WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, and iMessage. Skills are distributed as a SKILL.md plus supporting files via the ClawHub registry, and crypto runtimes such as Bankr publish OpenClaw-compatible skills. It is a general-purpose agent framework, not crypto-native; onchain capability comes from third-party skills. Widely-cited star and skill counts could not be confirmed from official sources and are not asserted here.

This is the share of our daily checks that succeeded — not an availability guarantee. A check can fail because the host was down, because our runner timed out, or because the network in between dropped it, and only the first of those is a fact about this project. Failures are split by what we can attribute; anything we cannot attribute is counted, not hidden. 49 of these checks predate 2026-09-01, when the probe counted a bot-block (HTTP 403) as a failure and recorded no reason for any failure. Rates spanning that date mix two definitions. Since then: 100%.
