Is Moltbot safe?

"Moltbot" is an earlier name for what is now called OpenClaw, and its safety depends heavily on how you configure and secure it. Because it can access files, run commands, and use credentials to do useful tasks, it also introduces risks like credential theft, prompt-injection attacks from malicious websites, or unintended actions if it's misconfigured. Security experts recommend minimizing permissions, using sandboxed environments, restricting what directories and services it can reach, and monitoring logs carefully. When set up conservatively—with limited access, strong secrets management, and clear boundaries—Moltbot/OpenClaw can be reasonably safe for many users, but giving it full system or financial access requires serious caution.
