Moltbot vs Clawdbot
Short answer: if you're starting today, install Moltbot. “Clawdbot” shows up in older posts and videos.
The practical version
- Moltbot is the current name and the active project.
- Clawdbot is an older name that still appears in older tutorials.
- Core idea stays the same: an always-on agent you can message via Telegram/Discord/etc.
If a tutorial says “Clawdbot”
1
Follow the concept, not the name
The workflow (gateway, channels, sessions) is what matters.
2
Use current docs
When in doubt, cross-check against official docs for the latest commands.
3
Use logs to verify
If something fails silently, logs will reveal the mismatch.
