New comment by hestefisk in "ClawLock: The Control Plane for OpenClaw"

I love OpenClaw and what it can do. I have long been wanting OpenClaw to take care of my shopping and purchases online. However, with the current threat of prompt injections, I do not trust it with my credit card details as it stands.

To reduce the chance of breaches, I built ClawLock, a supervisor (sidecar with process isolation) for OpenClaw that injects controls around tool use. The user defines a passport for what the tools can and cannot do and ClawLock governs it. For high-risk transactions like in-browser purchases or shell command, a deterministic policy engine and an LLM-as-judge are used to detect any potential threats prior to execution.

ClawLock is currently in its infancy. It is primarily tested on Linux. I would appreciate any feedback on your experience using it on MacOS and WSL.

I am in strategy consulting and I can tell you the productivity gains are real in terms of research, model building, and summarising work. The result is price pressure from our clients.

This is really cool, nicely done. Q: How did you get the WhatsApp integration working? I thought that was completely closed off unless you are in Europe.

Also Ladybird is quite an interesting alternative. Anyone here using it day to day?

Firewalls is not where I would argue that BSDs are more consistent. FreeBSD comes with three different choices in base: ipfw, pf, and ipf.
