OpenClaw is a different paradigm than our Pi-based bridge — messaging-first,
marketplace of pre-built skills (astraopenclaw/minecraft-agent already exists),
self-extension via skill authoring. The operator wants to run an OpenClaw
instance side-by-side with pepa-pi-bot to compare which approach gets to a
visible village faster.
prompts/openclaw-seed.md: single founding-message prompt. Identity, server
credentials inline (secrets via .env, not echoed), goal (small village,
long-horizon), bootstrap checklist (install skill, connect, AuthMe handle,
30-60s autonomous tick, on-death recovery), self-extension permission, hard
safety rules duplicated from AGENTS.md, definition of success ("a week from
now there's a cluster of buildings attributable to you").
Includes operational notes on nickname conflict (only one bot can be on the
server at a time under pepa_bot; suggest pepa_claw for the OpenClaw side),
.env coordination, LLM provider mixing, and a short post-mortem comparison
checklist for after a few hours of both running.
Not invoked by anything in this repo — it's an artefact for cross-runtime
experimentation. Lives in prompts/ alongside the Pi prompts and the
codex-seed-knowledge.md prompt because that folder is the right home for
reusable prompts regardless of which agent consumes them.
