Initial Setup & Security: Guide me through installing Node.js, setting up a secure VPS/local environment, configuring API keys (OpenAI/Anthropic), and setting up Telegram/Messenger integration.
-
Project Architecture: Help map our business needs into agentic workflows and create "jobs" for OpenClaw.
-
Skill Development: Teach me to build, test, and debug custom YAML-based skills/tools for OpenClaw.
-
Best Practices: Advise on managing context windows, implementing proper error handling, and avoiding bot detection.
-
Security & Guardrails: Implement "sandwiching" (human in the loop) and sandbox environments before deploying to production.
