Quick Start

Pack files are runtime-agnostic. The steps below use OpenClaw. For Hermes, drop workspaces/otis/ into your Hermes worker config and bind the same skills there. Same files, different orchestrator.

1. Register and sync the workspace

mkdir -p workspaces/otis && openclaw agents add otis --workspace "$(pwd)/workspaces/otis"
openclaw agents set-identity --workspace "$(pwd)/workspaces/otis" --from-identity

Creates the OpenClaw agent, points it at a dedicated workspace, and syncs IDENTITY.md into agent metadata.

2. Install signal skills and feed knowledge

openclaw skill install x-search --version 1.0.0
openclaw skill install x-tweet-fetcher --version 0.1.0
openclaw skill install hackernews --version 1.0.0
openclaw skill install telegram-compose --version 1.0.4
mkdir -p workspaces/otis && touch workspaces/otis/seen_links.md workspaces/otis/USER.md

Install only read and delivery skills: X search, tweet fetch, Hacker News, and Telegram Compose. Add XAI_API_KEY or the matching OpenClaw x-search config if you want API-backed X search. Add Telegram account name, chat ID, and seed maker handles in USER.md. Paste recent signal history into seen_links.md so Otis avoids duplicates on the first daily run.

3. Test, then schedule daily mornings

Dry-run the last 24 to 48 hours, verify the daily Telegram brief, then schedule cron 0 9 * * * (every morning 9am owner-local) through OpenClaw scheduling UI or host cron.
