1. What LobsterSandbox Is
LobsterSandbox is an open-source template and educational guide for safely experimenting with OpenClaw, an AI agent framework. We provide:
- A deployable code template
- Safety guides and tutorials
- A marketing website with resources
We do NOT provide:
- Hosted infrastructure for your sandbox (you deploy on your own Replit, Railway, DigitalOcean, Cloudflare, or Docker)
- Storage of your API keys or credentials
- Access to your AI conversations or connected accounts
2. Your Responsibilities
When you deploy LobsterSandbox, YOU are responsible for:
- Your own hosting costs (Replit, Railway, etc.)
- Your own AI API costs (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.)
- Securing your deployed instance
- Any accounts you connect (WhatsApp, Discord, etc.)
- Complying with the terms of service of all platforms and APIs you use
- Using the software legally and ethically
3. No Warranty
LobsterSandbox is provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee:
- That the software will be error-free
- That the software will meet your specific needs
- Uptime or availability
- Security of your self-hosted instance (that's your responsibility)
4. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, LobsterSandbox and its creators shall not be liable for:
- Any damages arising from your use of the software
- Loss of data, profits, or business opportunities
- Actions taken by AI agents you deploy
- Costs incurred from API usage
- Security breaches on your self-hosted instance
5. AI Agent Risks
You acknowledge that AI agents can:
- Make mistakes or take unexpected actions
- Incur costs if not properly configured
- Access accounts you connect to them
- Potentially cause harm if misused
The safety features (Kill Switch, Wipe, Safe Mode) are tools to help mitigate these risks, but they are not foolproof. Use at your own risk.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree NOT to use LobsterSandbox to:
- Violate any laws or regulations
- Harm, harass, or defraud others
- Access accounts or systems without authorization
- Distribute malware or malicious content
- Violate the terms of service of connected platforms

8. Changes to Terms
We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of LobsterSandbox constitutes acceptance of any changes.
