Secure, open-source alternative to OpenClaw
OpenClaw is powerful, but give it real credentials and you're exposed. Prompt injections steal API keys. Malicious skills grab passwords. IronClaw fixes this. Your credentials live in an encrypted vault inside a TEE — injected at the network boundary only for approved endpoints. The AI never sees the raw values. Every tool is Wasm-sandboxed. Outbound traffic is scanned for leaks. Built in Rust. Open source. Deploy on NEAR AI Cloud in one click.
IronClaw provides feature parity with OpenClaw (full system access, persistent memory) while replacing TypeScript with Rust, shared process isolation with per-tool WebAssembly sandboxes, and unrestricted network access with endpoint allowlisting.
IronClaw is model-agnostic and compatible with Anthropic, OpenAI, GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini, Mistral, Ollama, OpenRouter, Together AI, and Fireworks AI. Security architecture remains unchanged regardless of which LLM backend is selected.
IronClaw provides leak detection that scans outbound traffic in real-time and blocks anything resembling a secret. Each tool runs in isolated WebAssembly containers with capability-based permissions and network allowlisting, preventing silent data exfiltration.
IronClaw offers one-click deployment on NEAR AI Cloud with no hardware setup required. The entire runtime is built in Rust with compile-time memory safety, eliminating buffer overflows and use-after-free vulnerabilities automatically.
IronClaw runs agents in encrypted enclaves on NEAR AI Cloud with an encrypted vault that stores credentials separately from the model. Credentials are injected only to allowlisted endpoints, preventing prompt injection attacks and malicious skills from stealing secrets.
