Show HN: LobsterHelper – Managed OpenClaw on Firecracker VMs
Hey HN,
steipete mentioned in an interview that if you can't use a terminal you shouldn't use OpenClaw (paraphrasing). I disagree - the way we interact with the internet is changing, and simply because a new technology carries risk doesn't mean that one cadre of society is uniquely well-equipped to understand and accept the risks.
So, I put my money where my mouth is and built LobsterHelper.
Each instance runs in its own Firecracker micro-VM with LUKS-encrypted storage. Not Docker containers on shared infra. The VMs have no public IP - all access goes through an authenticated proxy.
I can't make the AI safe yet, but I can make the infra safe, and that's a good place to start.
We've got a long dev-log lined up (3rd party api configuration on platform, token metering, free token use tiers, openclaw UI enhancements) and we'll have bonuses for early adopters along the way.
We're on a long journey to make these technologies safer and more accessible, and we'd hope you join us for the ride.
Alex

Show HN: Manifestinx-verify – offline verifier for evidence bundles (drift)
Manifest-InX EBS is a spec + offline verifier + proof kit for tamper-evident evidence bundles.
Non-negotiable alignment: - Live provider calls are nondeterministic. - Determinism begins at CAPTURE (pinned artifacts). - Replay is deterministic offline. - Drift/tamper is deterministically rejected.
Try it in typically ~10 minutes (no signup): 1) Run the verifier against the included golden bundle → PASS 2) Tamper an artifact without updating hashes → deterministic drift/tamper rejection
Repo: https://github.com/OneInX/Manifest-InX-EBS Skeptic check: docs/ebs/PROOF_KIT/10_MINUTE_SKEPTIC_CHECK.md
Exit codes: 0=OK, 2=DRIFT/TAMPER, 1=INVALID/ERROR
Boundaries: - This repo ships verifier/spec/proof kit only. The Evidence Gateway (capture/emission runtime) is intentionally not included. - This is not a “model correctness / no hallucinations” claim—this is evidence integrity + deterministic replay/verification from pinned artifacts.
Looking for feedback: - Does the exit-code model map cleanly to CI gate usage? - Any spec/report format rough edges that block adoption?
