OpenClaw has been wildly popular for quite a while now.
Most interested users have already tried the “raising lobsters” trick, and some have even gone so far as to fully uninstall it, severing their toxic relationship with AI once and for all.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) was launched by Anthropic in November 2024. After its release, MCP quickly gained widespread attention in the developer and AI communities and was seen as the emerging standard protocol for communication and interaction with large models.
