WHAT IT DOES

What quit does on OpenClaw

AI agents call quit as a supporting operation in OpenClaw workflows.

RISK

Why quit is rated Low

Exiting a TUI is a UI lifecycle action: it terminates the local interface session but does not read, write, execute, delete, or move money. The blast radius is minimal — at worst the user loses unsaved UI state.

From the tool's definition 'Exit the TUI' — this tool closes a terminal user interface session, producing no data read/write/execute/destructive/financial side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs quit safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and OpenClaw, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For quit, this is the rule to start with:

quit Rate-limited

quit gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
