Looking for the Clawdbot GitHub?
Same project. OpenClaw was previously known as Clawdbot, so older posts and links reference the Clawdbot GitHub repository. Both names point to github.com/openclaw/openclaw.
After the install: extend it
The repo gives you the agent. What makes it useful is what you plug in: skills, MCP servers and plugins. We index 13,000+ MCP servers and thousands of skills, each with its install command.
FAQ
What is the official OpenClaw GitHub repository?
Whether you search for OpenClaw GitHub or GitHub OpenClaw, the official repo is the same: github.com/openclaw/openclaw. It contains the full source code for OpenClaw, the open source personal AI agent, written mostly in TypeScript.
Is OpenClaw free and open source?
Yes. The source code is public on GitHub and free to self-host. You pay only for the model API usage (or run free local models) and whatever server you host it on.
Was OpenClaw called Clawdbot before?
Yes. The project was previously known as Clawdbot, and older articles and links may still use that name. The Clawdbot GitHub links now point to the same OpenClaw repository.
How do I install OpenClaw from GitHub?
Clone the repository, install dependencies, and run the setup command shown in the README. Most people deploy it on a small VPS so the agent stays online around the clock.
Is OpenClaw safe to run?
The code is open source and auditable, which is a good baseline. Like any agent with tool access, safety depends on your configuration: limit shell and network permissions, and review the skills and MCP servers you install.
