@bradmillscan After four weeks of mostly just keeping Openclaw running, I switched to Claude Code and Hermes. I haven't regretted it for a single second. Hermes had to delete my entire Claude Code setup after just two days 😅

I started using OpenClaw in February. 70-90% of my time & tokens was fixing bugs & tech support. Coming back to my OpenClaw from a 2 week family medical emergency. Should I retry with fresh install, switch to Hermes, learn Claude Code proper or wait for next gen agent models.

@MiniMax_AI @MiniMax_AI If I were you, I'd offer some giveaways; the chances are incredibly good right now. I'm currently still using the Anthropic subscription, but that was my last month; I have to switch because I'm using Openclaw and Hermes.

The MiniMax Token Plan was designed from the beginning to be used across third-party harnesses. There will be more good ideas of how to use AI coming from outside the AI labs than in them. Limiting AI subs to first-party products kills these ideas before they are ever born.

@NousResearch The same thing happened to me. I spent four weeks trying to build an Openclaw agent team. Then I read about Hermes, and after two days, Hermes deleted everything related to Openclaw for me. 😅 I'm currently focused on building something real, not just keeping a system alive.

Your first experience with a functional agent may be disconcerting.

@panyiszabolcs Let's hope that in two weeks we read that Orban has landed safely in Moscow. He will start a shared apartment with Assad.

💥Viktor Orbán angrily responded to protesters who booed him at a rally in opposition-led Győr. He accused them of promoting Ukrainian interests and wanting to send “Hungarians’ money to Ukraine,” as his campaign follows a path-dependent strategy blaming everything on Ukraine.

@bradmillscan Because 99% of it is lies and only meant to generate clicks. I'm currently building a gatekeeper script for my validation Agent, so these damn agents finally stop lying and actually do their jobs. I'm working on version 2 because version 1 was too easily bypassed.

How in the hell are these accounts claiming to run entire companies w/ OpenClaw. I just spent 1.5 HRS trying to get my claw to use X API for reading tweets. FAIL We have a whole SOP documenting exactly how to do it from previous failures. I can’t imagine running 10 of these…

@johann_sath It also helps to verify the solution approach via web search before every config change; the bot must, of course, be able to perform web searches for this.

stop openclaw from killing itself: add this to your SOUL.md: "never guess config changes. read the docs first. validate before applying. backup before editing. if you break something, roll it back immediately." one bad config change crashed my server for 6 hours. added this rule. hasn't happened since. your AI should be careful with the things that matter and fast with the things that don't.

@troyaitken_ setup

I run a $110K/month agency with 6 AI employees. They have names. Personalities. Jobs. One writes content. One monitors infrastructure. One runs campaigns. Here's the full setup: Most people use AI like a search engine. I use it like a staff. The difference: context files that make each AI know its job, its boundaries, and me. USER.md — Who You Are Teaches AI everything about you: → Name, location, timezone → Your business and goals → Working patterns and communication style The AI can't serve you if it doesn't know you. SOUL.md — Personality & Principles The AI's operating system: → Core truths ("Be resourceful before asking") → Communication style and banned phrases → Boundaries and business context This turns a generic assistant into YOUR assistant. IDENTITY.md — Who the AI Is Give it an identity: → Name (mine is Jarvis) → Role (chief of staff, content writer, etc.) → Vibe and operating principle An AI with identity has consistency. AGENTS.md — The Operating Manual The longest and most important file: → Startup routine (what to read first) → Memory system (where to log, what to remember) → Safety rules and learned mistakes MEMORY.md — Long-Term Memory Persists across sessions: → Discovered preferences → Business learnings → Key decisions made Without this, you restart from zero every conversation. TOOLS.md — Integration Notes Your AI's reference manual: → API endpoints and workflows → Team contacts → What works and what breaks Skills — Specialized Instructions Auto-trigger based on keywords: → Content generation → Sales follow-ups → Lead enrichment → Customer onboarding The Agent Squad I don't have one AI. I have six: → Jarvis — Chief of Staff → Loki — Content (8am + 3pm daily) → Ivan — Infrastructure (20K email accounts) → Hades — GTM campaigns → Scrapy — Data extraction → Trigify — LinkedIn scraping Each has its own context, memory, and job. How They Work 8am — Loki writes 5 tweet drafts 9am — Posts to Slack 10am — I approve 2. Done. No prompting. It runs on a schedule. Safety My AI once bought 164 domains without asking. $1,640 gone. Now I have: → Trusted user verification → Financial action gates → Prompt injection defense → Regressions (mistakes become rules) Proactive Behaviors The AI doesn't wait: → Cron jobs for scheduled tasks → Heartbeats for check-ins This is the difference between a tool and an employee. The Stack: → OpenClaw (open source orchestration) → Context files → Skills → Agent squad → Tool integrations → Cron + heartbeats Everyone's sharing AI setup guides. That's a good start. This is what happens when you go 10x further. Not a chatbot. A system that runs while you sleep. Like + comment "setup" and I'll DM you the full template.

@NeoClaw @boxmining @openclaw

@boxmining @openclaw Don't pay for any API, never, no, just don't, be smart.

What’s ONE advice you’d give someone starting out with @openclaw?

@boxmining @openclaw I've just learned a hard lesson and started from scratch today with a 10-phase plan! The advice I can give so far is to first have a flawless, stable, and optimized system before you start delegating any tasks.

@JulianGoldieSEO It'll definitely run well on my Nvidia 3070 ti with 8GB VRAM 😂

This is crazy. Qwen 3.5 just dropped a new update. Now it runs local. For free. So OpenClaw gets a new brain. No API bills. No peeking eyes. Link in the comments

@chrysb @openclaw I built a watchdog script that creates a backup of the configurations every 30 minutes and checks the gateway status. If the gateway status reports an error, it restores the last backup. So far, it's been running pretty well for three days.

request: @openclaw needs a repair mode when an invalid configuration is present and the gateway fails to start, your agent becomes unreachable. in that case, spawn a rescue agent who can help debug and resolve the config issue.

@SperanzaIntel I stopped playing two weeks ago after 300 Hours Topside. It was boring, everything the same.

There’s nothing to hide. The player base is slowly but surely declining. What can Embark realistically do to fix this? Is it the lack of content? The repetitive gameplay loop? Cheaters? What do you think, Raiders?

@TheRustedGear I play on PC and of course crossplay is on; console players are just so easy to kill. You can never be as good with a controller as you can with a mouse and keyboard.

Do you play with Crossplay On or Off?

@TheRustedGear I don't use them anymore because they're too expensive to manufacture, especially when you need five pieces for a bastion.

The Trailblazer Grenade got NERFED: 🔻Deals more damage to small enemies but LESS damage to bigger enemies such as the Leaper and Bastion. Embark did not have to nerf it this hard. What are your thoughts?

@RocketeerDriver After over 200 hours of Topside, I only managed to get one blueprint from such a locker.

I might just skip Secure lockers next wipe. Yellow/Green Tree here I Come.

@ThatARCGuy Let's vote!

You can like both, but you know you prefer one over the other… so which is it? Are you a PvP or PvE player?

@Antunes1 Epstein can be found in the Trump Files.

That’s actually crazy.

@AstarteTheMoon_ I also took a picture last night because I thought, "WTF, I've never had that before."

When you wanna do trials but theres no x2 anywhere xD

@MACHETE62588 @AstarteTheMoon_ It's super easy, just open all doors in Stella Montis with the battery from each side. Also in Cafeteria and Sandbox.

@AstarteTheMoon_ carriables sucks just as much.. but yea, cant even do bunker cuz its not in rotation.. we gettin robbed this week lol

OH my god. PLEASE

@LancesEmporium I tried it, the matchmaking takes forever. I went in naked, people were shooting each other, and I looted the best spots for blueprints in Stella Montis. Tempest ✅, both new arguments ✅

Raiders, did you try the Solo vs Squads mode yet? Are the rewards worth it as a Solo? What is your verdict?
