Daily Greeting

Give your OpenClaw agents personality! Automatically sends personalized daily greetings to all bound channels. Each agent greets users in their preferred language with relevant status updates. Supports BOOT.md and OpenClaw cron triggers.

Daily Greeting Skill

Features

• 🎯 Dual trigger modes: Supports both BOOT.md (on startup) and cron (scheduled)
• 📊 State persistence: Records execution status, prevents duplicate runs
• 🔌 Multi-platform: Supports Discord, Feishu, etc.
• ⏰ Working days filter: Only triggers on weekdays (configurable)
• 🔄 Resettable: Supports manual reset
• 🛡️ Safe repetition prevention: Both BOOT.md and cron can coexist - state check prevents duplicate greetings

Installation

1. Clone or copy skill to ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/
2. Ensure script is executable: chmod +x scripts/greeting.sh

Usage

Manual Execution

bash

bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run

Auto-trigger

Choose one or both triggering methods based on your usage:

Method 1: BOOT.md (triggers on Gateway startup)

Add to workspace BOOT.md:

markdown

# BOOT.md

<!-- daily-greeting:start -->
Please execute daily greeting:

bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run

text

After execution, reply ONLY: `NO_REPLY`.
<!-- daily-greeting:end -->

Method 2: OpenClaw Cron (triggers on schedule)

bash

openclaw cron add \
  --name "daily-greeting" \
  --cron "0 9 * * 1-5" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run" \
  --wake now

Default: 9am on weekdays (Mon-Fri)

Both methods work together safely - state check prevents duplicate greetings.
