Cohen explains the security concerns that led him to build a small, container-isolated alternative to OpenClaw, why he released it under the MIT license, and why the project’s community and credibility are more valuable than keeping its code private, along with the approval and governance layers large companies require and NanoClaw’s containers, TypeScript, SQLite, and two-database design.
