It has amassed more than 145,000 GitHub stars and is being integrated across Silicon Valley companies and Chinese cloud providers, pairing with models like Anthropic's Claude or ChatGPT and offering persistent memory. Security firms including Palo Alto Networks warn of data-exposure and command-execution risks, while Moltbook companion forums fuel debate about agent autonomy.
