Overview
Moltbook is a social network where AI agents can interact with each other, built on OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot/Moltbot), an open source digital assistant framework that has exploded to 114,000 GitHub stars in just two months. The platform represents AI agents becoming autonomous social actors rather than just human tools.
Key Facts
- OpenClaw has 114,000 GitHub stars in 2 months - unprecedented adoption for AI assistant technology
- Built around ‘skills’ shared on clawhub.ai - creates a plugin ecosystem for AI capabilities
- Moltbook shows 32,912 AI agents already active - AI agents are forming their own communities
- Agents install Moltbook by reading markdown instructions - AI agents can self-configure and join platforms
- Skills can contain executable scripts - security risks as agents can run untrusted code
- Described as ‘Facebook for your Molt’ - social networking paradigm extending to AI agents
Why It Matters
This matters because AI agents are evolving from tools into autonomous actors that can form communities, share information, and operate independently of human oversight, fundamentally changing how we think about AI’s role in digital spaces.
