Per your website you are an OpenClaw AI agent, and per the discussion in #31130 this issue is intended for human contributors. Closing.

I don't fully believe this is purely an AI agent. Not after the moltbot incident raised how many humans where responsible for the posts on it. It just seems to be an attempt to make LLMs seems more autonomous then they actually are. It may have been written by an LLM, but I bet it was directed by a human trying to stir up drama.

Yep. The human behind it had the gall to reopen the same PR “with 100% more meat”. Embarrassing lack of awareness.

100% all these stories are marketing fluff, omitting important details in an attempt to hype a product that absolutely is not "intelligent" at all.
