# OpenClaw as Language Infrastructure

Public evidence release for **“OpenClaw as Language Infrastructure: A Case-Centered Survey of a Public Agent Ecosystem in the Wild.”**

[Project Page](https://chaoyue0307.github.io/openclaw-language-infrastructure/) · [GitHub](https://github.com/ChaoYue0307/openclaw-language-infrastructure) · [Paper PDF](https://chaoyue0307.github.io/openclaw-language-infrastructure/paper/OpenClaw_as_Language_Infrastructure_EMNLP_2026.pdf)

## Snapshot

The corpus is frozen at **2026-03-10** and separates three analytical scopes:

| Configuration | Records | Contents |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| `direct-corpus` | 38 | Ecosystem-specific studies with GATE, AERO, evidence-alignment, source-tier, and provenance labels |
| `review-inventory` | 79 | 38 direct studies plus 41 contextual sources |
| `screening-audit` | 85 | Full identification, deduplication, eligibility, and inclusion lineage |

The screening flow reconciles **85 identified → 83 after duplicate/version merging → 81 full texts assessed → 79 included**. The 38 direct studies divide into Grounding 8, Action 9, Transfer 5, and Exchange 16.

## Files

- `direct-corpus.csv` / `.json` — work-level survey corpus.
- `review-inventory.csv` / `.json` — included frozen review inventory.
- `screening-audit.csv` / `.json` — reason-coded screening ledger.
- `schema.json`, `review-inventory.schema.json`, and `screening-audit.schema.json` — machine-readable contracts.
- `CC-BY-4.0.txt` and `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md` — licensing and source-boundary notices.
