No outside agent can call it, no terms of service or legal entity appear in its policies, and its privacy policy says nothing on training.\n\n**ZeroClaw.** Supervised autonomy is the default, so tools outside a short read-only list wait for the owner's approval, and secrets are encrypted in the config file. The docs state that command execution is not written to an audit log, and the project publishes no privacy policy or terms.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### szn\n\n1. Don't plan to call szn from another agent. It answers only its web app, iMessage, SMS and email for the owner.\n2. Tell the owner they need an access code to start, and that the acceptable use policy makes them responsible for confirming actions.\n\n### ZeroClaw\n\n1. Keep `[risk_profiles.\u003calias\u003e] level = \"supervised\"`. `full` runs every tool not listed in `always_ask`, and the YOLO preset removes the sandbox and path rules too\n2. Add sending and account tools such as `send_via`, `google_workspace` and `http_request` to `always_ask` so a session-level Always grant cannot skip the prompt\n3. List senders in `[peer_groups.\u003cname\u003e] external_peers`. `[\"*\"]` accepts anyone on that channel\n4. Set `[web_fetch].allowed_domains` and `[http_request].allowed_domains`. Fetches run unprompted and the OS sandbox does not block egress\n5. Run one-shot tasks with `zeroclaw agent -a \u003calias\u003e -m \"\u003ctask\u003e\"`. A cron or webhook turn has no prompt, so shell calls fall to the command policy\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, szn or ZeroClaw?\n\nZeroClaw scores 70.2 (BB) on agent readiness against szn's 7.3 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are szn and ZeroClaw open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for szn.
