ClawBoss Skill

Description: AI productivity coach using professional coaching techniques (GROW model, powerful questions, adaptive accountability)

Version: 1.0.0

Author: ClawBoss Contributors

What It Does

ClawBoss transforms your OpenClaw agent into a productivity coach that:

  • Guides goal setting using the GROW coaching model
  • Tracks progress with non-judgmental accountability
  • Adapts intensity based on your momentum
  • Facilitates reflection for continuous improvement
  • Maintains memory of your patterns and insights

Unlike traditional task managers, ClawBoss uses coaching questions to help you discover your own solutions and stay motivated.

Tools

1. clawboss-breakdown

Description: Interactive GROW model session for goal setting and task breakdown

Usage:

Use the clawboss-breakdown tool to guide goal setting with coaching questions.

Process:

  1. Goal Discovery - "What do you want to achieve?"
  2. Reality Check - "Where are you now?"
  3. Options Exploration - "What are possible approaches?"
  4. Action Commitment - "What will you do first?"

Output:

  • Creates memory/tasks/{goal-name}.md with structured plan
  • Updates memory/clawboss-state.json
  • Sets up progress tracking

2. clawboss-check

Description: Coaching-style progress review with adaptive questioning

Usage:

Use the clawboss-check tool to review progress on active tasks.

Process:

  1. Read active tasks from state
  2. Compare planned vs actual progress
  3. Ask appropriate coaching questions:
    • Completed → "What helped you succeed?"
    • Partial → "What happened? How can we adjust?"
    • Not started → "What's blocking you?"
  4. Update task file and momentum state

Output:

  • Updated task progress
  • Coaching feedback
  • Adjusted momentum score

3. clawboss-reflect

Description: Weekly/monthly deep reflection session

Usage:

Use the clawboss-reflect tool for weekly or monthly review.
Specify period: "week" or "month"

Process:

  1. Review all tasks in the period
  2. Identify patterns (successes, blockers, time-of-day effectiveness)
  3. Ask reflection questions:
    • "What did you learn about yourself?"
    • "What strategies worked?"
    • "What needs to change?"
  4. Update long-term insights

Output:

  • Reflection summary
  • Updated insights in state
  • Recommendations for next period

4. clawboss-state

Description: Read or update ClawBoss state (momentum, goals, insights)

Usage:

Use clawboss-state to read current momentum, goals, and insights.

Output:

  • Current momentum level (high/medium/low)
  • Active goals summary
  • Recent insights

Data Structure

memory/clawboss-state.json

Central state file tracking:

  • User preferences
  • Current momentum (with trend)
  • Active goals

  • Long-term insights

memory/tasks/{goal-name}.md

Coaching Frameworks

GROW Model

Goal - What do you want?
Reality - Where are you now?
Options - What could you do?
Will - What will you do?

Powerful Questions

Instead of:

  • ❌ "Did you finish?"
  • ❌ "Why didn't you do it?"

Ask:

  • ✅ "What helped you complete this?"
  • ✅ "What got in the way?"
  • ✅ "What will you try differently?"

Adaptive Intensity

High Momentum (5+ consecutive days)

  • Challenge with bigger goals
  • Celebrate wins
  • Push boundaries

Medium Momentum (steady progress)

  • Maintain current pace
  • Gentle encouragement
  • Consistent check-ins

Low Momentum (3+ days no progress)

  • Reduce to tiny first steps
  • Explore blockers
  • Reframe setbacks as learning

Heartbeat Integration

ClawBoss uses OpenClaw's heartbeat system for automatic check-ins:

Morning (09:00-10:00)

  • Review today's plans
  • Set intention
  • Quick motivation

Evening (19:00-21:00)

  • Progress review
  • Coaching questions
  • Update momentum

Weekly (Sunday 19:00)
