I built Eliezer because OpenClaw wasn't what I wanted after trying it—too big (400K+ lines), recent supply-chain attacks (Feb '26 npm incident), exposed instances, RCE vulns, and acquisition by OpenAI. Eliezer is ~7K lines of TypeScript, MIT open-source, fully self-hosted (or free 2-month trial hosting): PWA for mobile/desktop with push notifications Self-editing protocol (modifies its own code safely on request, e.g., improve git rebase handling) Builds and displays interactive apps/widgets right in the chat (e.g., 3D globe, playable drum machine) Continuous tasks & crons (e.g., "notify if sunny tomorrow at 10am") Persistent SQLite memory + context Bring your own LLM API key (Kimi/Claude/Grok/etc.) Continuous compaction for visibility/control
