Inside the container the agent runs with permission prompts off, network egress is open by default, and it can message any chat it is wired to without approval.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Boba\n\n1. Don't plan to call Boba from another agent. It answers only text messages in the Messages app.\n2. Tell people in a group chat that messages sent to Boba may be used to train its models.\n\n### NanoClaw\n\n1. Install with `git clone` and `bash nanoclaw.sh`. There is no registry package, and setup needs Docker, Node 22 or later and a Claude or Codex credential\n2. Set `NANOCLAW_EGRESS_LOCKDOWN=true` before giving an agent credentials or an audience of strangers. The default leaves egress open\n3. Put chats with different audiences in separate agent groups. Every session of a group shares one read-write workspace and memory tree\n4. Turn on per-request approval for a secret in the gateway when its use should wait for a person. It is off unless configured\n5. On OneCLI installs, move the gateway to 1.42.0 by the upgrade guide before updating to 2026.10.0. The updater stops until that is done\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Boba or NanoClaw?\n\nNanoClaw scores 68.3 (B) on agent readiness against Boba's 10.3 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are Boba and NanoClaw open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Boba.
