Transcript

Dario just said something that should

terrify or excite every software

engineer alive. At Davos 2026, the CEO

of Enthropic announced that AI will be

doing most, maybe all coding within 6 to

12 months. And here's the crazy part.

It's already happening. 90% of Claude's

own code is written by AI. So, it's that

self-improving loop. But everyone's been

talking about Claude code replacing

developers. And now there's something

even bigger that's happening that people

are starting to talk about. And that of

course, like you've probably already

been hearing, is Claudebot or Moltbot,

what it's now been renamed to. So

Moltbot is essentially what you know

Siri should have been or essentially

sort of like an upgraded version of

Claude Co-work. Now, a lot of people

have been running out buying Mac minis,

and you know, that is a great way to set

it up. But in today's video, I'm going

to show you how you can set it up for

under $15 a month. Step by step, I'm

going to be giving you the exact

commands that you can run to literally

copy and paste to get your VPS set up in

a secure way with Claudebot or Moltbot

running. and you will get access to this

22page guide with all the commands that

I'm going to be running in this video as

well as different configurations, links

to external resources, documentation,

use cases that people have been using on

Twitter, etc. I'm going to be posting

this in our free school community down

below. So, make sure to join and grab

the resource for free to follow along

with this video. All right, so let's

dive into actually installing Claudebot.

So, this is the AI that actually does

things. You can go to their website

here. All links will be in the

description down below. And it's very

simple. You have this oneliner right

here. You have npm, hackable, Mac OS.

You can download for Mac OS. There is

PowerShell CMD. And you can change the

operating system for Windows to Mac or

Linux, whatever the case may be. Now,

when you do it on Windows, it does say

that it does work best on either Mac or

Linux. And that's what I'm going to show

you in today's video. So, if we go over

to their docs here, you'll see that

there is many different ways to actually

deploy CloudBot. You can deploy on

Docker, you can deploy on Railway, which

is very easy, many different ways. But

what I'm going to be showing you in

today's video is how to deploy it with a

VPS. I'm going to be using Contabo. You

can really use any VPS. It doesn't

matter. But I'm going to be showing you

from start to finish how to set this up.

So, I'm going to go to Contabo here. So,

I'm just going to get a monthly plan for

about €7

uh a month. So, about 10 bucks give or

take. And we're going to go ahead and

just do a few different options here for

US for best latency. So, you can either

go 150 GB SSD or 75 GB NVME. I'm going

to go with the NVME. And here we are

just going to keep it as UMuntu right

here. I'm not going to do any data

protection here. And lastly, you're just

going to want to set up your root

password right here or generate one

clicking this button. Once you do that,

you're going to click next. Then you can

fill out your information. I'm a

returning customer, so I'm just going to

log into Contabo. And just so you know,

I am currently getting the CloudVPS 10

plan. So, I get four CPU cores, 8 GB of

RAM, and then 75 GB of NVME storage. Uh,

if you were to upgrade to the 20 or 30,

of course, you're going to get more, but

we don't even need that for Clawbot.

Now, we're going to go ahead and order

and pay. So, once it's done

provisioning, you're going to get an

email from Contabo with the VPS

information, the IP address, etc. And

you're going to use that password that

you made to sign into it. So, you're

going to open up your command line, and

then you're going to run the command SSH

root at VPS, whatever the IP address of

your VPS is. Then, it's going to prompt

you to add it to your uh known host. You

click, you enter yes, and then you enter

in your password. And keep in mind, all

this info will be in the guide down

below that I provide you for free. So

you can check that out from our school

community. Now, a few things I'm just

going to do right off the bat as good

hygiene for our VPS. I'm going to run

apt update. And then now I'm going to

run apt upgrade-y. And all these

commands, like I said, will be in that

guide. Next, we're actually going to

install xfce

desktop environment. So I'm going to run

this command right here. app install-y

xfce4

and then we're going to click enter.

Like I said guys, all the commands that

I'm running are in this guide right

here. So what are we doing right now?

Well, you can just install Claudebot

directly on the VPS and it will use the

terminal uh be able to you know do

pretty much everything, but it is a

little bit nicer and a little bit more

userfriendly and you know allows you to

do some additional things when you

actually have a guey to go along with

your Claude code or your Claude bot to

maybe troubleshoot or see certain

things. So that is what we are setting

up right now. And for those of you who

don't know what a guey is, it's a

graphical user interface. So what we're

on right now is Windows. You can see how

we can click around with everything. It

has nice and userfriendly. That's a

guey. And then this right here that

we're running in is a command line. So

it's just raw uh you know really what

the computer actually is under the hood.

Okay. Next we're going to install

Firefox. And you could install either

Firefox or Chromium. I'm just going to

install both. So we'll do that. Next,

I'm going to run the Chromium command,

which is this right here to install

Chromium. So, you could choose either or

whether you want Firefox, Chromium,

doesn't matter.

Okay. Next, I'm just going to run some

additional commands. You know, some

additional utilities and whatnot. Okay.

Next, I'm going to install XRDP for

remote desktop server. All right. And

I'm going to run the following commands.

I'm just going to copy all these and

paste them in. Okay. So now we can see

that we have our RDP running right here.

It's enabled.

So now I'm going to add a user right

here that isn't root. Going to give

myself access. And I'm just going to run

these commands right here to configure

our firewall. Also one thing to block

SSH brute force attacks. You can run

pseudoapp install fail to ban. All

right. Your VBS is scanned constantly.

Fail to ban automatically blocks IPs

that try to brute force via SSH. Also

too, guys, another note on security is

quite frankly, you know, if you set this

up properly, whether it be on a VPS or

on a Mac Mini or whatever the case may

be, one of the main ways a lot of people

will be uh susceptive to um you know,

malicious attacks and whatnot will be

through prompt injections, right? So say

for example you have your clawbot or

your moltbot in you know a discord

server or you know any front-facing

place even you know for example it has

access to your email that means anyone

that emails you via prompt injection

could potent like like I'm saying could

in uh include a prompt injection in that

email to get to your actual agent right

so anywhere that you know someone your

agent is reading something where there

could be text that some person could

inject that text 2 wherever that case

wherever that could be is you know

potential vulnerability right now if

you're using a model like Opus 4.5 you

are a bit more secure you know not but

still at the same time you know every

model essentially right now can could

potentially be vulnerable but of course

if you're using maybe an open-source

model or whatever the case is something

that's not as smart as Opus you're even

going to have a higher chance if someone

was to try to maliciously attack you and

that is the whole big security concern

concern that many people are talking

about because if you're giving this

thing you know root access to your

device, you're giving it access to all

your credentials which are stored in

plain text in a I believe a dot

credentials uh JSON uh file uh something

like along those lines. Um it it's being

stored there, right? So uh which makes

sense when you know for you know the

usage of the bot. But if someone was to

attack uh you know and get inside and

gain root access, then they essentially

can get all the information out of your

Cloudbot. Now that we got that out of

the way, I'm going to connect via remote

desktop. I'm going to click the Windows

button and click R and then I'm going to

type in this right here. Now you're

going to enter your VPS IP address right

here and then click on connect. All

right. And now we are connected here.

I'm going to log in with the username

that I created. And now we are connected

to the XFCE desktop.

I'm going to do the following commands

in the actual guey right here. So I'm

going to go here to our terminal. I'm

going to go ahead and install NodeJS

right here. So I'm pasting all these

commands. These are the same ones from

the document as well. Paste those in.

All right. Next, I'm going to go ahead

and install PNPM. I'm just going to

paste this in. All right. Now we're

getting into the fun part where we're

actually going to go ahead and install

Claudebot. So just going to run this

command right here. Next, we're going to

go ahead and install Claudebot. So this

is the fun part. We can just run this

oneliner right here. Clawbot makes it

super super easy. Literally just one

line. There is optional there is options

with npm as well or whatever the case

may be. We're just going to use the

oneliner though and we're going to go

ahead and click on enter. Now we can see

the Cloudbot installer has been

initialized right here. Okay. And boom.

Now we have Cloudbot installed. So we

can see boom. It's just asking us if we

understand that this is risky or not

using it on our system. Of course we're

using on VPS so that's fine with us. Now

you can either go through manual

onboarding or quick start. We're just

going to go through quick start right

now just because it's super super easy.

Now for model off providers we have a

few different options here. I'm not

going to go through them all, but you

can see OpenAI, Anthropic, Quan, Miniax,

etc. We can use Open Router. So, if you

want to use GLM 4.7, you could either

use Z.AI, you could also use Open

Router. This is going to give you one of

the higher quality, cheaper

alternatives. The thing that's going to

cost the most is if you use the

Anthropic API, of course, that will just

eat up tokens. Uh, if you use your

Claude Max plan, that will be definitely

a little bit better. It's about 200

bucks a month. So, I'm just going to go

ahead and use that for now. Now, it's

going to ask us for our off method. So,

we can either use our anthropic token or

we can use our anthropic API key. So,

I'm going to get our anthropic token

right here. I'm also going to go ahead

and install claude code on our uh VPS

right here as well. So, I'm going to go

ahead and paste this like so. Boom. Now,

we're going to go ahead and run Claude

shoes. Like, for example, uh I'm getting

this, you know, right here. Just

something to do with our path. Um, I

just pasted it into Claude, gave me kind

of this command right here. Did the same

for um Claudebot as well, which you can

see I did up here. It's just echo export

path and then we're uh linking it right

here. So, I'm going to click enter. Now,

if I click on enter claude, yep, now we

actually got it actually found the

command. So, um, first thing, of course,

we're going to do dark mode.

And now we're going to do claude account

with subscription which is going to open

up in our browser which then we can use

our ooth for. Okay. And boom. Now we are

logged in. Going to click on continue.

Authorize. And time to build something.

Great. So going to press enter.

Enter.

Yep. And then boom. Now we're in claude

code. So if we come back to Cloudbot

over here,

do this.

Go down to anthropic.

Use our anthropic token.

Now, as you can see, you can run claude

setup token in our terminal here. Oops.

Going to copy this. Paste this here. And

it's going to give us a setup token that

we can use. And now we're going to paste

in that O token in here. Okay. So here

we can configure what model we want to

use. You can either enter one manually,

select from what you know there is or

just leave your default one. I'm just

going to leave Opus 4.5 right now. This

is the best coding model in the whole

entire world of course. So yeah, we'll

get the best results. Now here we can

select our channel. Now you could also

skip this for now. This allows us to use

Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Google

Chat, Slack,

Signal, iMessage. Really, you name it,

it is here. Now, the only thing that you

can't use doing it this method that I'm

showing you, of course, on Linux, is

iMessage. So, for now, I'm just going to

go ahead and click on skip because we

can configure this later. All right.

Next, you can see it's asking us to

configure skills, which is recommended.

We're going to click on yes. Now, here

it asks you if you want to install

homebrew. Now, this is for if you're on

Mac. If you're not, you can go ahead and

skip this. Since we're on Linux, we're

going to skip it. But if you were on

Mac, it would ask you which dependencies

here do you want to install? You can

install iMessage, all these different

ones to control different things within

those apps. So, we're skipping that for

now. Asking about Google Places API, our

go places API. We're going to skip that.

Skip all this.

We're just going to skip a lot of these

right now. Now we can come back to this

later. So here it's asking us if we want

to enable hooks. We can go ahead go down

press space to select which hooks you

want and then click enter. Now it's

installing the gateway service right

here. And we got gateway service

installed. I'm going to go ahead and run

Cloudbot Damon right here. Okay. And

onboarding is complete. The dashboard

open with tokens. Keep your tab keep

that tab to controlled Cloudbot. So if

we close this or minimize it, we can see

Cloudbot is right here on port

on 127.0.0.1

and then port 18789.

First things first, we're always going

to go ahead and turn on dark mode, of

course. And this is the Claudebot

interface. So this is the gateway

dashboard where we can see things like

our overview which has a snapshot of our

status right here uptime

uh our gateway access instances sessions

cron um and we can see our channels

right here so we can configure different

ones if we want manually we can also get

claude or claude bot to configure this

for us so we have WhatsApp telegram all

those different channels that we went

through we can see our instances right

here. So, right now, um, we have a

couple instances as you can see. And we

have our sessions. We have our cron

jobs. So, these are, um, this is where

you can go ahead and set a job. For

example, like every single day at 10:00

a.m. I want you to do deep research on,

you know, different YouTube ideas or

different trends in the AI space on

Twitter, whatever the case is. Formulate

a nice, concise, um, you know, document,

research report, and send it to me on

Slack every single morning. So I can sip

it with my So I can read it while I sip

my morning cup of Joe. Something along

those lines, right? And of course, you

can do this configurably in the uh

Claudebot control panel right here. Or

you can get Claudebot to of course set

these up for you. So that's a really

cool thing as well. Now here in agent

side, we have skills. These are

different skills that you can either uh

easily enable or whatever the case may

be. So we see a lot of these ones are um

you know kind of going with the whole

Mac system. So if you do so if you are

on a Mac or a Mac mini you can enable a

lot of these pre-built ones right here.

Here we can go over to nodes and we can

see um different things such such as

exec approvals. Then we have our config

with different settings, environments,

updates, agents, a bunch of different

stuff. authentication

commands right here. So allow bash chat

command. We could toggle some of these

on say for example. Then if we wanted to

save it, we could go like this. All

right. So it has been a couple of days

since I recorded the setup process of

CloudBot. And I wanted to give you guys

an update on kind of what I've been

doing and what I've kind of learned

along the way to help optimize your

setup. So, one thing I will say is I

will be doing more videos on Clawbot. I

already have another video planned for

power users where we'll get into more

advanced features, but I really do want

to give you guys some quick tips on how

to actually use this. So, first things

first, um, one of the easiest ways to

set it up is in Telegram. So, if you

don't know how to actually set this up,

um, when I was showing you just there,

like in the actual UI config, quite

honestly, I personally probably won't do

much in the UI config, it is um, you

know, the Cladbot control, you know, you

don't really want to go in there, click

manual buttons yourself, etc. It's kind

of tedious. So, what I would personally

recommend though is just talking to your

Cloudbot. So once you actually get your

CloudBot set up, tell it, "Hey, can you

set up Telegram for me?" Literally just

ask it to set up Telegram and walk

through the steps of doing so, right?

It's pretty straightforward. You go in,

you talk to botfather, set up a bot, and

then give it a pairing code and a key,

etc. But Claudebot will actually dictate

on, you know, how to actually do that if

you don't know how. Now, where is my

Cloudbot set up? So, I have currently I

have two Claudebots set up. One is

running on Windows, one is running on

Linux because I wanted to test it out.

I'm also in the process of getting a Mac

Mini to set that up as well, just

because I I really want to see all the

operating systems. What I have learned

is you don't need a Mac Mini. I know we

see everyone getting a Mac Mini. You

don't need a Mac Mini. The VPS method is

very good, right? You can pretty much

do, I'd say, about 90% 95% of what you

could do with a Mac Mini. Now, there are

some benefits to a Mac Mini. You can use

iMessage, you can use Mac native apps,

as well as there's some additional

features. You know, Cloudbot was kind of

built around specifically for Mac uh in

some ways. So, if you are on Mac, you

will be able to reap some benefits. It's

easier for it to control your screen,

etc. for certain things. Now, once you

first start talking to your Clawbot, you

get it in your Telegram or wherever.

It's going to ask you about what its

name is. My name right here for this one

is Sarah. Uh you can't see that, but

it's Sarah there. And um you can see I'm

talking to her. I start by telling her

kind of a little bit about myself as

well as a little bit about herself. You

know, for her um you know, just like,

hey, this is how I want you to

communicate. And now when you start

telling it certain things about itself,

it's going to update that in what's

called its soul.md file. Now, quite

honestly, if you go into, you know, the

uh, you know, the actual files within

your um, system, you can see these

specific files and you could edit them

there. So, for example, here I'm in my

file system right here. If I go to home,

you'll see Josh your user. Click into

here. Now, we can see our claude file

right here. So, if I go into here, now

we can see, you know, everything within

our cloud file. You can see our agents.m

MD, our bootstrap.md, our heartbeat.md,

our identity, memory, soul, tools, user,

etc. You can also see skills, right?

Here's the skills I currently have. Auto

updater, claude docs, domain details,

PRD, marketing mode, uh, GOG, which is

Google, summarize, YouTube watcher. Now,

you can also get Claude to create its

own skills. You can create, uh, skills

on really anything, right? Um, so you

can do that memory. So this is where we

would see our memory and then canvas.

Let's say I opened up our I let's say

our soul file right here. So we can see

here right now ours is pretty generic,

right? Be genuinely helpful, not

performatively helpful. Skip the great

question and I'm happy to help. You

know, we can see some boundaries here,

etc., etc. And then we can see this is

ever evolving. So if you wanted to

update things, you could do so manually

here or you could also just tell

Claudebot to update these files, right?

That's the simplest way in my

experience. So we can see the soul is

for who I am. The identity is for name,

emoji, and vibe. This is for the user

info for user. Agents is how it

operates. Memory is the long-term

memory, the quote unquote infinite

memory. And then this memory directory

is for daily notes. So next I would

recommend checking out also something

like Claude Hub right here. So you can

see this is the skill directory for

Claudebot. You can see a bunch of

different skills. So if you go to skills

here you can upload ones, import ones,

etc. We can see X articles, deep

research agent, skill creator, YouTube

downloader,

uh calendar, all these different skills

that are already pre-made. You can

access them very easy just by going to

them, clicking on one, and you can

either download the zip of the skill.

You can, you really just see it here. Or

you could just tell Claude uh bot to

come to this specific link or give it,

you know, Claude Hub um you know, just

give it the link and tell it to find you

specific skills. Or you could actually

go to Claude Hub's GitHub. So if you go

to Claude Hub, you can actually see the

GitHub repo for Claude Hub right here.

So, you have many different options.

Really just give this information to

your Claude uh to your Claude bot and

start asking it questions. Hey, can you

find me different skills? Hey, do you

have any ideas based on these skills?

What skills we may want to build? Um,

this is what I'm looking for. This is my

plan. Start telling, it's kind of like

a, you know, a therapist in a way where

you're talking to the AI. It's like your

friend. It's your companion and you're

telling it information about yourself

and you're saying, "Hey, uh, you know, I

run a marketing company. I'm looking to

do this, you know, I want to create exit

content, you know, I want to create uh

Instagram uh short form reels, you know,

do some research on this, create this

type of content, you know, I want to

mimic this creator's scripts, whatever.

Create a skill that can be uh

replicatable for this kind of like an

SOP for that specific um task, right?

Because Claudebot is really like your

personal assistant, your employee, your

friend. You can use it in that specific

way. I'm telling you all these things

like this because it's really up to you

to get creative. You know, it's not just

a step-by-step guide at this point. The

possibilities are really endless, right?

So, I will show you some ways I set it

up, some additional ways I've been using

it, but it's up to you to customize it

for your specific use case. I also added

our Claudebot to our Slack channel right

here. So, if I go over here to AI team,

you can see if I want to talk to our

Clawbot, I can one tag it right here.

So, I can say, "Hey, Sarah, how are you

today?" And since I tagged it, it's

going to start responding like so. Now,

I personally use Slack for all of our

business communication. Um, so this

works really well for us. You know, I

could add it to a specific channel and

then give my team access to a Clawbot,

right, where they could ask questions.

If you house your clients in Slack like

we do, you could actually put it

potentially in specific client Slack

channels. Of course, I wouldn't

recommend doing it in maybe a cloudbot

that has access to your personal

information. Maybe you make a specific

cloudbot for clients and it, you know,

has access to specific things, but you

know, you do have to be careful because

if you do have external people using it,

um, you know, they could potentially get

information out of it that, um, you may

not want them to. So, keep that in mind.

Now, right here, if I wanted to reply to

it, I could just keep adding it or I

could just reply to the thread. I'm

doing good. Here, I'm saying I'm doing

good. What's new in the world of AI

today? Everyone in their mom is talking

about you, Claudebot. And you can you

search on X for what's trending? Also,

find me some good skills we should add.

Maybe get clone this repo. Check it out.

Take a look here on Claud and download

five new skills that would be useful and

tell me how to use them. Also, create

one new skill that would be useful for

me and my business since of course it

knows a lot about me and my business,

right? So, we can message it here in the

thread. And then also too, if I did just

want to message her directly in Slack

without adding her, I could just do that

like this. And of course, she's just

going to reply uh in the actual DMs. So,

you can do it two ways there in Slack.

And we can see she's already starting to

reply here. So, she is going to tackle

all this by searching um and going to

work right now. Summarizing the

findings, searching, etc. So, she was

actually having some troubles with the

Cloud Hub registry. So now she's taking

a look at the uh GitHub repo to try a

different approach. And now she's like,

"Now we're cooking. Let me search for

more relevant skills for your business."

So we're cooking right now. We're in the

kitchen. Chef hat already. Let's see

what she actually comes up with. All

right. So boom, we got our response

back. So let's take a look at what it

actually did. So after it was it

coached, let's see. So the registry is

having some hiccup connectivity. Based

on what I found, let me install five

useful skills for your business. Got

four installed. All five skills

installed. Let me create a custom skill

tailored for executive stride based on

your profile. I'm thinking of a lead

research and outreach prep. Okay, sure.

Fine. I mean, it's not bad. That would

be a killer for your marketing agency.

Um, all right. I'm back. Here's the full

research rundown. So, AI news,

unfortunately, we need the Brave API

configured. So, let's go ahead and run

that. Okay. So, I just gave it the API

key to set that up. Um then I can search

X Twitter and news for you. So it's

going to do that. Then it cloned the

repo right here for cloud hub the full

claude uh hub repo registry codebase

handstag convex etc. Now the five new

skills that it installed is the LinkedIn

automation via browser relay um open

LinkedIn and Chrome attach a browser

relay extension then I can check

messages view profiles search pro people

etc. So that's useful. I mean you can

automate your LinkedIn. I remember back

in the day we used to do LinkedIn

automation for clients like we um you

know had like over 50 accounts set up on

LinkedIn at one point using these

different like cloud-based tools etc.

Now you don't need any of that. Claude

can or Claude uh Claudebot can do all

this for you, right? So, NAN workflow

automation. Okay, so design production

grade NN workflows. So, I know a lot of

you guys watching love NAND. Um, you

know, I love Nad. It's a great tool. Uh,

I've found myself personally using a lot

more of, you know, things like Cloud

Code and Claud Hub lately. You know,

I've been using Cloud Code every single

day for the last uh four four months now

about literally from day uh to night.

claw just completely clawed coding. So,

it's it's insane. But now we're seeing

CL like one of the things claw code. A

lot of people think claude code is

specifically just for coding as we're

seeing it's for so many different things

and I'm going to be doing more videos

showcasing how you can bring this you

know to different areas of your life.

Okay, we got the X articles and we got

the cursor agent for running cursor CLI

for uh coding tasks. That's useful as

well. And then browser use, you know,

I've done videos on browser use before.

Uh great tool. Um would recommend. So

now we got those five skills. Now it

went ahead and created some custom

skills for lead research. So um

basically what it does, it does a

company deep dive, digital uh presence

audit, painoint detection, competitive

analysis, decision maker intel, personal

outreach prep. So pretty useful. That's

14 skills right there. So I gave uh it

our actual Brave API key and now it's

saying, "Holy crap, Josh, Clawbot is

actually viral right now. Here's what I

found." So, Clubbot trending on X or

Twitter. We can see different things

here. The headlines are real. You know,

it's giving us some different news. X

amount of GitHub stars, etc. Some

concerns are flagged. So, token

consumption. Um, no directory sandboxing

by default. So, I just wanted to ask it

to clarify, you know, cuz sometimes it's

not perfect at the end of the day. It

may make mistakes or do things that

you're like, hey, shouldn't it be this

way? So I just asked it you know I

thought you don't need you know

obviously cloud code doesn't need a

brave API key to do web search. So for

web search that tool does need an API

key you can either use brave API open

router perlex API key but web fetch of

course doesn't need an API key. So this

just works out of box for grabbing

website content. So for certain things

you may need one or the other. Of

course, if we're doing maybe a big more

research on different things and

whatever, you may probably want the

Brave API key or something along those

lines to do your actual searching. Also,

one cool thing I want you guys to see is

I set something up. So, okay, at 10:00

a.m., and this is on the 26th, it's

currently the 27th. Um, I want you to do

deep research on Twitter, YouTube, um,

you know, on the internet about what's

trending in AI, cloud code stuff,

cloudbot, different things. Give me an

in-depth report and update. Spend a lot

of time doing this deep research. give

me an update. Set it as a cron job. So,

it set that up as a chron job. And if I

go down all the way here to the 27th,

and I told it to do this at 10:00 a.m.

every day. So, you can see, let me fetch

major AI news. We can see the daily

research briefing. So, hot news, boom,

boom, boom. So, there we go. We're

getting some news here about, you know,

Kimmy K2.5.

Um, some Google news, etc. does. So you

can make this of course even more

specific to you know maybe what you

specifically want or incorporating this

with different skills API keys whatever

the case may be to get a lot higher

quality uh reports right and then you

could connect this let's say for to your

Google so if we don't know how to do

that we just ask it how do you connect

to all my Google apps now boom we have a

complete guide on how to actually do

this we go here um set everything up get

these specific things and then any

specific commands that it may or may not

need to run. We just tell Claude to do

everything. We don't want to do

anything. We don't want to touch

anything. It has access to your

computer. It is your employee. So, you

tell it what to do. One thing I have

cursor uh downloaded right here on our

system. I'm going to go tell it right

here that I want it to set up cursor for

me. So, it's saying please set up cursor

the AI IDE for me. It is currently in

our downloads folder. Right. So, now

it's saying found it and installing now.

So, I'm saying once you install cursor,

open it and create a nex.js JS project

called stride Sarah Claude. Okay. So we

can see that it is installed. Okay. And

boom. Now we have a Nex.js project

created right here exactly as we asked.

We can see what the stack is. Next.js,

React, TypeScript, Tailwind. And we can

see that uh cursor is open. So if we go

over to our guey, we should see cursor

open. Okay. And boom. I just had to sign

into cursor here. But now we can see we

have the project open right here.

stride. Um, Sarah Claude, it's a Next.js

project. So, I could go tell it right

now to actually build something. Now, in

this Nex.js project, I want you to build

like a task tracker for the task that I

give you. So, then anytime that you're

actually going through this task

tracker, what would be like a canban

board to say for example, create like an

MVP of this, then you can actually, you

know, I can actually get a visual idea

of what stage each task is. Maybe

there's certain things that are long

running tasks like cron jobs that we

want to put into like every day or daily

task or certain things like this. Like

build some sort of UI that's intuitive

as well as pretty much everything that

we have within our chats whether it be

on Slack, Telegram, whatever the case

may be is shown um there, right? And

then maybe if there's certain things

that uh yeah, we'll we'll just keep it

at that for now just to keep it basic

and we'll improve upon it after. uh

create this and then just um start it on

local host so I can get a nice visual

represent representation of what we've

already done. Import the task that we've

already done into it as well. All right.

Now I'm going to go ahead and send this

and see what it actually does. Okay. And

boom, we have the task manager here.

Task tracker. So if I go over here, take

a look in our um guey right here. We can

see we have all tasks in progress,

urgent, recurring, completed, sources,

you know, Telegram, Slack, Chron jobs,

etc. Now, of course, this is a first

iteration, MVP, but we could, of course,

change this around, update it. I'm just

showing you guys different options,

giving you some different creative ideas

potentially. You know, some of these may

or may not be useful for what you want

to do. Now, a couple other things to

note before we end off this video, guys,

is Claudebot, like I mentioned, they

renamed to Moltbot because Anthropic,

you know, essentially said it, you know,

was too similar to Claude or Cloudbot.

And, you know, some people have also

been reporting that people have been

getting banned from Claude because

they're using Cloudbot to operate u

under their Claude code subscription,

right? And essentially this violates

Anthropics TOOS and people are getting

you know some notifications like this

apparently. And the thing is guys if you

were to use Clubbot through the API with

Opus 4.5 you're going to spend a lot of

money if you're using it on consistent

basis. That's just a warning. I

personally haven't experienced anything

you know at the moment but it is you

know something I am going to be careful

with if people you know are getting

these bans. I definitely don't want to

lose my Claude subscription. Also

another interesting use case I saw on X

was this one right here. Claudebot

farming up 100 Google local guide

accounts. Level 10 around the city. Each

one running on an ARM on ARM chips in

the cloud. 4G mobile proxies. Age Gmail

on each one. Quen 3 going around the

city. Living reviews on monuments and

libraries. Nothing you will see will be

real. So, uh, you know, it is

interesting cuz yeah, as you know, you

could leverage these to, you know, do a

lot of things with bots, you know,

different social accounts. Not saying

you should necessarily do some of these

things. So, I'm saying the possibilities

are there and people inevitably will be

doing them. Reddit, um, you know,

growing social engagement, bot forms,

whatever the case is. Um, you know, the

possibilities are really endless whether

you're using it for white hat, gray hat,

black hat. Um, yeah, you know, this is

new technology and you are really only

limited by your creativity. So, yeah,

guys, that's pretty much it for this

video on Moltbot, aka Cloudbot. Let me

know what your thoughts are in the

comments down below about Moltbot. Do

you like it? Do you like it better than

something like Cloud Co-work or do you

not like it? Do you think it's overhyped

or underhyped? A lot of people have been

debating that. I personally think it

does have a really good use case. A lot

of people were trying to build these

whole Jarvis AI like personal assistants

a lot last year and tools like NAND and

whatnot and they were always very

clunky. You had to always add these

nodes to add different tools and

whatever. this is, you know, a lot

better, a lot easier to interface with,

especially uh if you're not a technical

person once you actually get it set up.

You can use it via Telegram, Slack,

whatever the case may be. But yeah, it

is interesting because it does obviously

seem like a company like Anthropic isn't

really supporting a lot of this type of

behavior. You know, we've seen it with

Open Code. They were banning people for

using their Claude Code Max plan, and

now we're apparently seeing it with

this. So, uh, you know, with that being

said, I'm going to be careful, tread a

little bit lightly, you know, with what,

uh, provider I use to see if, you know,

other people are getting banned or not.

Like I told you guys from the start, I

have been using it for the last few days

and haven't had any issues. Let me know

what your thoughts are. Let me know if

you've been building anything cool. And

like I said, guys, if you want access to

all the resources I covered in today's

video for free, as well as all the other

resources that I've covered in past

videos and will be doing in future

videos, then join our free Stride AI

Academy. Link for the school will be in

the description down below, guys, where

you can also connect with like-minded

individuals like myself and other people

in the AI space. I know I haven't been

uploading for a while, guys. You know,

I've been working on a lot of cool stuff

behind the scenes that I will be sharing

with you very soon. Like I said, I've

been using Claude Code every single day

non-stop for the last like 3 4 months.

So, a lot of cool stuff I've been

working on. Excited to share with you

guys and what I've been learning and all

that jazz. And if you got some value

from this video guys, make sure to drop

a like, comment down below as well as

subscribe to stay up to date with future

videos. Other than that guys, I will see

you in the next video. Keep hustling,

keep grinding, and of course guys,
