Yes. The UI allows you to add repositories (OpenClaw is one listed), and you can enable/disable any of them.

It can modify everything, because while it's a single binary and that makes it easy for installation, there are things stored outside that binary. The memories, the skills, the config etc. But you can do everything from the UI and you don't need to bother, it will be all automatic.

It is already MIT license.

To be honest, I was looking at a short name, something than "Rustacean" would get, had a domain name available, easy to pronounce. I didn't like rustclaw, I think having similar name doesn't mean much unless it's very related, like tinyclaw being a typescript simili I get it.

For the logo, I do think everyone went for the lobster meme for a connection to clawdbot. But in my case it's because I wanted to use a derivative of the Rust logo, a crab.

Moltis can do all that yes, unless I missed something. And it's way easier to setup.

Heartbeat: is run on a regular interval (you choose) and can do something you define in the heartbeat prompt section of that settings.

Crons: is run when you want, you can ask to Moltis things like "do <whatever> every day at X" and it will automatically create a cron entry, you can disable later.

Let me confirm, I just tried on digitalocean and I have a similar issue, the last version I published might have issue. Fixing as of now.

oh so those are issues from the provider itself, you get to choose between model the provider advertise for you, meaning:

- you can have models you can not actually use (that gpt-5.3 response) - you can have model non-listed.

Those are all coming from the provider with your API_KEY.

You should not be limited, which provider do you use?

author here.

It's a different take and heavily inspired at first by OpenClaw, which is a great product and Peter the founder is an amazing human being. I'm adding features than I want, since I do Moltis for my own use but also try to add features than others will enjoy.

I think Rust makes a lot of sense security wise, it does add benefits like being a single binary and very easy to install. I also tried to make it easy to try with a 1-click deploy on the cloud.

I'm not sure this is convincing enough but I think you can only judge by yourself trying it out, and I'd love feedback.

These is one of the option but I felt like it was a bit early to use.
