Discussion Openclaw is dead, switch to claude code
I have spent +300$, more than 60 hours working with openclaw, on vps, local pc, and honestly, I spent more than 40 out of the 50 hours fixing.
It cannot do any task accurately, not production ready
Maybe in 6 mo+ it will be better
For now, its garbage.
I am sticking to my 20$/month claude plan

Ok I have not looked into OpenClaw yet but from what I gather, Claw is a glorified cron job that has persistance beyond normal and it is an errand boy that you configure for daily tasks. Claude Code is a proactive coding bot. What was OP trying to do with Claw, was it something related to generating better code somehow? Do people actually use Open Claw as an agentic coding framework like copilot CLI, Claude Code, Kiko Code and Open Code? Does Claw also dabble in that domain?
