Hack on OpenClaw w/ Codex

​What's Wordware Hack Night?

​An evening dedicated to solving one of AI's most interesting UX challenges: making autonomous AI agents accessible to everyone.

​OpenClaw is an open-source, self-hosted AI agent runtime that lets LLMs take real-world actions—managing files, automating browsers, sending emails, executing shell commands. It's a 24/7 personal assistant that actually does things. The problem? Right now it lives in terminals and chat apps. We're going to change that.

​When: February 19, 2026 | 4:00 PM - 9:00 PM PT
Where: Wordware Beach House, 1185 Old Mason Street, San Francisco
Challenge: Hack on OpenClaw and build interfaces that make OpenClaw even better

​The Challenge

​OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot/Moltbot) is powerful. It connects to Claude, GPT, local models—whatever you want—and lets them take autonomous, proactive actions in the real world. But right now, interacting with it means Telegram, Discord, or a terminal.

​Your mission: Build an interface that makes OpenClaw accessible, intuitive, and effective for people who've never touched a command line. Think dashboards. Think mobile apps. Think interfaces that make autonomous AI agents feel approachable instead of intimidating.

​This isn't about building a chatbot wrapper. It's about rethinking how humans interact with AI that can actually do things on their behalf.

​Here's How It Works

​4:00 PM - Doors Open Arrive, grab food, meet other builders. Settle in and get your environment ready.

​4:30 PM - Kickoff & OpenClaw Deep Dive We'll walk through OpenClaw's architecture, API endpoints, and capabilities. You'll understand exactly what you're building for.

​5:00 PM - Build Time Begins Five hours of focused building. Wordware's team will be on hand to answer questions and help you ship something real.

​8:00 PM - Demo Hour Show what you built. No slides. Just live demos of working interfaces.

​8:45 PM - Wrap-Up & Networking Mingle with the Wordware team and fellow builders. This is where the recruiting conversations happen.

​Who Should Come

​You're a developer, full-stack builder, or designer who can ship a working interface in a few hours. This isn't a beginner event—we're looking for people who can take an API and build something usable by end of night.

​You might be:

• ​A React/Vue/Svelte developer who builds clean, intuitive UIs

• ​A mobile developer who wants to put autonomous AI in someone's pocket

• ​A designer-developer who cares about making complex systems feel simple

• ​Someone who's frustrated that AI agents are stuck in chat interfaces

• ​Looking for your next opportunity at a company building serious AI infrastructure

​If you've shipped production tools and want to work on something that matters, this is your night.

​Why It's Worth Your Evening

​Because you get to solve a real problem. OpenClaw is powerful open-source infrastructure that needs better interfaces. Your interface could become THE way people interact with autonomous AI agents.

​You'll walk away with:

• ​A working project for your portfolio that demonstrates real expertise

• ​Direct face time with the Wordware team (yes, they're actively hiring)

• ​Connections with other high-caliber builders in SF

• ​The satisfaction of making AI agents accessible to non-technical users

​Wordware is building serious AI infrastructure, and they're looking for talented developers to join them. This hack night is their way of finding people who can actually ship—and your chance to show what you can do.

​What You'll Be Building For

​OpenClaw gives you:

• ​API access to an AI agent runtime that can take real-world actions

• ​Support for Claude, GPT, and local models

• ​Capabilities including file management, browser automation, email, shell commands

• ​Proactive task execution (it can act without being asked)

• ​Existing interfaces via Telegram and Discord (your competition to beat)

​Your interface should make this accessible to someone who's never heard of any of this.

​The Vibe

​Focused. High-energy. Builders building. No pitch decks. No theory. Just five hours to prove you can make autonomous AI agents usable by real people.

​Wordware's beach house, good food, and a room full of people who actually ship things.

​Ready to Build Something That Matters?

​Register below. We're capping attendance at 75-100 builders to keep the energy focused and ensure everyone has what they need to build.

​If you can ship OpenClaw interface and want to show what you're capable of—or if you're curious about what Wordware is building—this is your night.

​See you on the 19th. Come ready to ship.
