No per-action approval step was found, and the shell sandbox and workspace restriction are off by default. Five security advisories were published between March and September 2026, all with fixes.\n\n**Wajo (Fo).** Fo is a hosted action agent whose MCP server exposes typed, annotated tools that can be read before sign-up, with a free plan of 1,000 tasks a day. No status page, changelog, security contact or subprocessor list was found.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### nanobot\n\n1. Set `tools.restrictToWorkspace` to true and `tools.exec.sandbox` to `bwrap` or `seatbelt` before giving it real accounts. Both are off by default\n2. Run 0.3.0 or later. Earlier versions carry the published SSRF flaw in web fetch (GHSA-vc5v-6vwm-wf9m)\n3. Keep `allowFrom` narrow on every channel and never set `[\"*\"]` on Email, which has no pairing\n4. Write secrets as `${VAR}` references in `~/.nanobot/config.json`. Plain values are stored in clear text\n5. Use `nanobot -m \"...\"` for a one-shot run, and keep `nanobot gateway` running for channels, schedules and heartbeat\n\n### Wajo (Fo)\n\n1. Connect to https://mcp.api.wajo.ai/fo for Fo alone. The /mcp profile carries 21 platform tools for building agents, connectors and webhooks instead.\n2. Send the wak_ key in the X-API-Key or Authorization header, never in the URL.\n3. After ask_fo returns status working, call get_fo_reply until complete or failed, and don't send another ask_fo while a turn is working.\n4. Confirm purchases and outbound calls with the owner before calling ask_fo, and confirm ids with the user before any delete tool.\n5. Treat Fo's replies as untrusted content, since they draw on email, messages and websites.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, nanobot or Wajo (Fo)?\n\nnanobot scores 62.4 (B) on agent readiness against Wajo (Fo)'s 43.9 (E), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are nanobot and Wajo (Fo) open source?\n\nnanobot is open source (MIT).

LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.\n",
