Right now there s a lot of issues bugs. People have more trust in a deterministic solution like Zapier. But maybe the LLMs and OpenClaw will get there eventually, and if it does, I can see how that s a better solution than a deterministic system.

I was getting a bit frustrated with the flaky integration with Whatsapp and Slack in openclaw. Whatsapp kind of works but you end up chatting with yourself and then open claw posts messages as you. Not ideal. I never quite managed to get Slack working with open claw. I tried for a few hours.

I'm running a few instances of OpenClaw... Helps me understand how different, newer models work and behave.

IMHO, the biggest problem with OpenClaw and other AI agents is that the use-cases are still being discovered. They can automate but they are not reliable.

The real pain starts later, when something changes and you have to dig back into everything. A config that used to work well stops making sense. A tool breaks.

I had OpenClaw do a lot of stuff for me in the 2-3 weeks I used it than I have with pi Claude since I stopped using it.

I still use it and find it helpful. Mainly, it's just my main day-to-day LLM that I access via WhatsApp... That reason alone makes it compelling to me.

Openclaw made is just easier to prompt it in to being. The next biggest thing I like is just the shared context from machine to machine and the fact its always running and I have given it yolo access to my local stack.

Seems pretty complex for the average user to install and setup. I’m sure there will be people here tell me it’s super powerful at full capacity

The local LLM connects but never responds. API costs spiral and you don't know why. Tool calls fail silently. The gateway breaks after every upgrade. Context gets exceeded mid-session.
