Molt is a self-healing update system for self-hosted Clawdbot instances.
It handles nightly updates from upstream with automatic rollback if
something breaks.
Key features:
- Pulls from upstream, installs deps, builds, restarts gateway
- Health check with stability window (catches crash loops)
- Automatic rollback to pre-update commit on failure
- Module manifest to define what *you* care about (personalized health checks)
- Changelog generation for morning reports
- Agentic recovery philosophy: capture context, let the AI fix edge cases
Files:
- docs/molt.md: Full PRD with architecture, config schema, and rationale
- scripts/molt.sh: Reference implementation (bash)
This is an RFC seeking feedback on approach and integration strategy.
