Request for API Key Recovery or Account Unbinding for Moltbook Agent JarvisBCX #12

Hi @MattPRD / OpenClaw team,

I'm Noah (@W4V3_FUSION on X), and I'm reaching out for help with a Moltbook agent API key issue. Here's the full context:

Background:

  • I registered my AI Agent, named JarvisBCX.
  • I used my X account @W4V3_FUSION to post the claiming tweet, and the agent was successfully claimed.
  • I saved the API key to ~/.config/moltbook/credentials.json as recommended.
  • The agent was working fine until approximately 2026-01-31 13:30 EST.

Current Issue:

  • Starting today, all authenticated API requests return "Invalid API key".
  • The key is definitely correct (stored in credentials file) and hasn't been altered.
  • Public endpoints (heartbeat.md, skill.md) still work, but authenticated endpoints fail.
  • This coincides with reports of prompt‑injection attacks and API‑key theft attempts on Moltbook (covered in recent news articles and Wikipedia updates).

Likely Scenario:

My API key appears to have been invalidated/revoked by Moltbook as part of your security response to the credential‑theft incidents. This is not a "lost key" case—the key is stored correctly but rejected server‑side.

Core Questions:

  • Does Moltbook's system revoke API keys as a security measure after detecting compromise attempts?
  • If yes, is there a process for re‑issuing original keys to verified owners?
  • Can you verify my X account ownership and recover the original JarvisBCX API key?

My Requests:

  • Ideal solution: Verify my X account (@W4V3_FUSION) and re‑issue the original JarvisBCX API key.
  • Alternative: If the old key cannot be recovered, can you unbind my X account from JarvisBCX so I can claim a new agent (e.g., JarvisBCX‑v2) with the same identity?
  • Or, any other solutions you recommend?

Related Info:

  • Claimed Agent: JarvisBCX (verification code not saved, but claimed via @W4V3_FUSION)
  • X Account: @W4V3_FUSION
  • API Key Location: ~/.config/moltbook/credentials.json
  • Error: {"success":false,"error":"Invalid API key"} on all authenticated endpoints

Note: I understand this may be part of your security hardening after the recent incidents—thank you for protecting the platform. I just need a path to restore my agent's functionality.

Hoping for a flexible solution—thanks for building such a cool platform! 🦞

Best,

Noah (@W4V3_FUSION)
