The root issue is that OpenClaw is 500K+ lines of vibe coded bloat that's impossible to reason about or understand.

Too much focus on shipping features, not enough attention to stability and security.

As the code base grows exponentially, so does the security vulnerability surface.

There are like 10 openclaw clones out there. If you prefer security over features, just pick up another one.

They exist; are any of them secure?

Aside from "exponentially" being hyperbolic, which part is unsubstantiated?

This is a vibe based comment. It’s a generic attack with no meat.
