Show Notes
OpenClaw's latest release is grinding CPUs to 100% and the community is furious — but buried in the chaos is a genuinely smart fix request that every open-source project should steal. Plus: a law office wants to run OpenClaw locally with a $200K budget, someone cracked Discord voice channels after three weeks of pain, and there's a critical security flaw sitting inside 200,000 MCP servers that Anthropic is calling a feature. Set up tonight's Skill of the Week before the next update drops.
