OpenClaw does present security risks, and the recommendations outlined in this article are apt.
That said, OpenClaw is more powerful than Claude Code due to its self-evolving agent architecture and its unfettered access to terminal and tools.
A secure way to provide access to additional non-sensitive API keys and secrets is by introducing a secure vault and ensuring OpenClaw’s skills retrieve credentials from it using time-scoped access (TTL of 15-60 mins). More details are available in this article: https://x.com/sathish316/status/2019496552419717390 https://x.com/sathish316/status/2019496552419717390 . This reduces the attack surface to 15+ mins and the security can be further improved with Tailscale and sandboxing.
