Deterministic Controller for OpenClaw (Docs-only)

USE WHEN

  • You want a deterministic, repeatable orchestration loop for OpenClaw (heartbeat + cron poll + subagents).
  • You want evidence-gated completion (no DONE without artifact paths).
  • You want a lean portfolio queue (ACTIVITIES.md) with external sprint-plan import via Plan Path.

DON'T USE WHEN

  • You want a turnkey, self-modifying installer that patches config / creates cron jobs automatically.
  • You need complex runtime code; this skill is templates + docs.

Outputs

  • Template files under this skill folder:
    • templates/HEARTBEAT.md
    • templates/ACTIVITIES.md
    • templates/SPRINT_TEMPLATE.md
  • Copy/paste prompts:
    • examples/setup_prompt.md
    • examples/project_to_sprint_prompt.md
  • Cron payload text:
    • docs/poll_cron_payload.txt
  • Config guidance:
    • docs/openclaw_config_snippets.md

How to use

Start with the repo README:

  • README.md

Then copy templates into your workspace and set:

  • <TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID> in HEARTBEAT.md
  • heartbeat prompt + cadence in openclaw.json (see docs/openclaw_config_snippets.md)

This skill intentionally does not execute commands or change config automatically.
