yay thank you! Added it.

Love the idea! Would love it if you could add a method to share your setup that doesn't involve MCP... I don't use MCP servers in my setup but I wish that didn't then exclude me from being able to share my setup.

It's now faster to write than to read. A first in human history

I am about 1 hour into using it with pi.dev. Do you have thinking on high? It is doing good but at one point i had to stop it and say 'you're overthinking this' haha

I love this. Is it possible to give a feel of how this stacks up to the good old Opus 4.5 in coding quality? For me that was the turning point where agentic coding in Claude Code etc became usable. Have we hit that threshold?

The emails go through quickbooks/accounting software, Clawbolt doesn't have any direct email client. Use of tools is on a gradual permission basis like Claude code, and Clawbolt doesn't have any general code access or web access. I think you highlight an important point though that prompt injection continues to be a hazard of AI agent use, though tools continue to be developed to fight against it. The goal is to lock Clawbolt down as much as possible to help users avoid the security hazards of systems like openclaw, but this is definitely something that we'll need to watch and be careful about!

Very cool! Quickbooks is an interesting area because imo it's so important to be super super careful with how that interaction model works. Narrowing on a very specific vertical like small business contractors I think should help to make sure that we can nail the interaction model to make it easy and safe.

Nathan here, MLE at Mozilla.ai. We wrote this because the AI productivity conversation has been almost entirely about desk workers, and we think that's a miss.

My buddy runs a general contracting business. He's good at what he does, but he spends a lot of evenings on a laptop chasing invoices and scheduling follow-ups instead of hanging outwith his family and friends. Most tools being built right now weren't built primarily for him.

Clawbolt is our attempt at a purpose-built AI assistant for people in the trades. It lives in messaging apps they already use, connects to things like QuickBooks and Google Calendar, and is proactive rather than waiting to be asked, just like OpenClaw. Following up on unpaid invoices, flagging material cost changes, that kind of thing. Open source core at github.com/mozilla-ai/clawbolt if you'd like to check it out and give it a star.

We're early and looking for input from people who actually work in the trades or run small trade businesses. Would love to hear what resonates and what we're missing.

Glad to hear it! oooh interesting, I've seen worktrunk but haven't explored it too deeply yet.

The sounds are sort of an easter egg: you can enable/disable them from the settings page (hit 's' in the TUI). You probably are experiencing them being random because the default is to select "random" sounds (see the settings TUI screen). I don't use the sounds much so I'm waiting for a contributor to suggest an improvement.
