OpenClaw creator made some related claims, that as soon as he created a GitHub organization with a new name, somehow it was stolen from him, and he had to ask Github people to do it for him atomically.

It is a bit different. What happened to openclaw:

He created a new org “openclaw” to reserve the name. Then he wanted to swap it with “moltbot” org.

So he opened two browser windows, one with “moltbot” repo settings another with “openclaw” repo settings.

Then he renamed “openclaw” to whatever, and quickly tried to rename “moltbot” to now available “openclaw”.

But in a second when “openclaw” was available, a bot snatched the repo.
