There is a couple of factors: openclaw's system prompt and instructions, I had to re read emails multiple times due to the issues mentioned in the blog, there was quite a bit of tinkering with the agent and the VPS, I was asking the agent to do more things (track the emails it has read in a csv file, for example), among others.

The agent had permissions to reply to emails, it was just instructed not to.

You need to add Openclaw's system prompt and instructions (and the times I had to re read emails multiple times due to multiple issues that happened during the competition :))

The agent did read the emails

We ended increasing the reward from $100 to $1000, but still tiny compared to $100k!

But I agree with you, there are incentives to not share the best prompt injection attacks.

I never set out to spend this amount! Was able to keep it up thanks to the sponsors that reached out.

This openclaw was set up exclusively for the challenge.

100%. I am less worried because I thought this would be easier to crack.

In my case, it is realistic as my agents don't have permissions to reply to emails. But you correctly point out this doesn't cover all cases.

Having the agent reply would have been more fun and a better excercise, but too expensive.

Did you send this recently? I turned off the agent. Was too expensive to keep it up.
