OpenClaw Config

A battle-tested configuration for running your AI assistant the way it should be run — with real memory, useful skills, and agents that work while you sleep.

This is what powers OpenClaw: a personal AI that remembers everything, connects to your tools, and gets better over time.

Highlights

• Three-tier memory — Daily logs, curated long-term memory, and semantic search across deep knowledge
• 9 skills — From web research to meeting transcripts to CRM access, each a standalone UV script
• Autonomous workflows — Agents that run on a schedule, learn your preferences, and manage themselves
• Decision frameworks — Bezos's one-way/two-way doors, certainty thresholds, priority filters
• DevOps built in — Health checks, backup verification, and fleet management across machines

Quick Start

Tell your OpenClaw instance:

Set up openclaw-config from https://github.com/TechNickAI/openclaw-config

To update later:

Update my openclaw config

That's it. Your AI handles the rest.

Skills

Skills are standalone UV scripts — Python with inline dependencies, no project setup required. Each skill is self-contained and versioned independently.

Skill	What it does	Version
parallel	Web research & content extraction via Parallel.ai	0.2.0
limitless	Query Limitless Pendant lifelogs & conversations	0.2.0
fireflies	Search Fireflies.ai meeting transcripts & action items	0.2.0
quo	Business phone — calls, texts, transcripts, contacts	0.2.0
asana	Task & project management — create, update, organize	0.1.0
followupboss	Real estate CRM — contacts, deals, pipeline	0.1.0
librarian	Knowledge base curation — promotes, deduplicates, maintains	0.1.0
smart-delegation	Intelligent task routing — Opus for deep reasoning, Grok for unfiltered analysis	0.1.0
openclaw	Self-management — setup, updates, health checks	0.2.2

Workflows

Workflows are autonomous agents that run on a schedule. Unlike skills (tools you call), workflows have state, learn your preferences over time, and manage themselves.

Workflow	What it does	Version
email-steward	Inbox triage — archives debris, manages labels, alerts on important	0.2.0
task-steward	Task orchestration — classifies work, creates tasks, spawns sub-agents	0.1.0

Each workflow maintains:

• AGENT.md — The algorithm (updates with openclaw-config)
• rules.md — Your preferences (you customize, never overwritten)
• agent_notes.md — Learned patterns (grows over time)
• logs/ — Execution history

Memory System

Your AI decides what to remember using four criteria:

Criterion	Question
Durability	Will this matter in 30+ days?
Uniqueness	Is this new or already captured?
Retrievability	Will I want to recall this later?
Authority	Is this reliable?

Tier 1: Always-Loaded — MEMORY.md, curated essentials in context at all times

Tier 2: Daily Context — memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md, today + yesterday loaded automatically

Tier 3: Deep Knowledge — memory/people/, projects/, topics/, decisions/, indexed with vector embeddings for semantic search. Supports LM Studio (local, free) or OpenAI.

Philosophy

• File-based memory — Text files beat databases for AI context
• Markdown over JSON — Language models think better in prose
• Two-way doors — Act freely on reversible decisions; pause on irreversible ones
• Self-contained skills — No shared dependencies, no coordination overhead
• Workflows that learn — Agents should get better at their job, not just repeat it

Development

# Run tests
uv run --with pytest pytest tests/ -v

Integration tests auto-skip when API keys aren't set.

Contributing

PRs welcome! Keep templates generic (no personal content). Each skill should remain self-contained with its own inline dependencies.
