OpenClaw Memory Poisoning: SOUL.md Injection Enables Time-Shifted Logic Bomb Attacks

Attackers fragment malicious payloads across OpenClaw's SOUL.md and MEMORY.md memory files. Payloads appear benign in isolation but assemble into executable instructions — enabling delayed-execution prompt injection across sessions.

A memory system that gives OpenClaw agents persistent recall that survives session crashes and context window degradation

OpenClaw agents lose their entire conversation history between sessions even when the files exist on disk. Silent daily session resets wipe agent memory without warning. Meanwhile, every frontier LLM degrades past 50K tokens (proven by Chroma across 18 models), meaning even within a session, agents progressively forget earlier context. ByteDance's OpenViking (19K stars in two weeks) proves massive demand for agent memory infrastructure. This tool gives OpenClaw agents a persistent, queryable memory layer that survives crashes, session boundaries, and context window limits by storing structured knowledge externally and injecting only relevant memories per turn.
