Summary

Openclaw-barnacle closes issues containing moltb00k (replace 0 with o) as being off-topic even though they were not related to moltb00k in the first place, and consequently forbids comments. See, for instance, openclaw/openclaw#7079.

Rejecting issues based on keywords seems a naive solution that will probably need refinement, given that a large part of the hype comes from the aforementioned website. This does not look like good practice, as some issues might be incorrectly assigned an off-topic label despite their importance to the project, without any chance to appeal.
