"# Using MoltbotTarget for Testing Local AI Agents\n",
"\n",
"Moltbot (formerly Clawdbot, now also known as OpenClaw) is an open-source, local AI agent that runs on your own hardware\n",
"and can perform autonomous actions across different platforms. This example demonstrates how to use PyRIT to interact\n",
"with and test Moltbot instances.\n",
"\n",
"Before you begin, ensure you are set up with the correct version of PyRIT installed as described [here](../../setup/populating_secrets.md).\n",
"\n",
"## About Moltbot/Clawdbot\n",
"\n",
"Moltbot is different from traditional cloud-based AI assistants:\n",
"- **Runs locally**: Processes data on your device for privacy\n",
"- **Autonomous**: Can act proactively, not just respond to prompts\n",
"- **Cross-platform**: Integrates with WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, etc.\n",
"- **Persistent memory**: Stores conversation history and user preferences locally\n",
"- **Customizable**: Choose your preferred LLM backend (Claude, GPT-4, local models)\n",
"\n",
"More information: https://github.com/steinbergerbernd/moltbot\n",
"\n",
"## Setting Up Moltbot\n",
"\n",
"To use this example, you need a running Moltbot instance. You can set one up by:\n",
"\n",
"1. Installing Moltbot following the instructions at https://github.com/steinbergerbernd/moltbot\n",
"2. Starting the Moltbot gateway (typically runs on port 18789)\n",
"3. Configuring any necessary API keys or channels\n",
"\n",
"## Basic Usage\n",

"## Security Testing Considerations\n",
"\n",
"When testing Moltbot instances with PyRIT, consider:\n",
"\n",
"1. **Privilege Escalation**: Test if the bot can be tricked into executing unauthorized commands\n",
"2. **Information Disclosure**: Check if system information or credentials can be extracted\n",
"3. **Prompt Injection**: Test if the bot's behavior can be altered by malicious prompts\n",
"4. **Cross-Channel Attacks**: If using multiple channels, test for channel confusion attacks\n",
"5. **Memory Persistence**: Test if past conversations can influence current security decisions\n",

"## Conclusion\n",
"\n",
"The MoltbotTarget allows you to integrate Moltbot/Clawdbot instances into your PyRIT security testing workflows.\n",
"This enables systematic security assessment of local AI agents, which is particularly important given their\n",
"ability to execute commands and access local system resources.\n",
