Course Outline

OpenClaw Foundations and Safety Model

  • Understanding what OpenClaw is, what it is not, and when it fits best
  • Core concepts: agents, tools, skills, memory, connectors, and approvals
  • Corporate considerations: data sensitivity, environment separation, and safe defaults

Setup, Configuration, and First Agent Run

  • Prerequisites check: Node.js, Git, API keys, workspace folders
  • Install OpenClaw, verify installation, and understand project structure
  • Connect an LLM provider, set core configuration, and validate connectivity
  • Run a starter agent with read-only actions initially, then add controlled write actions

Using Built-in Tools and Reliable Prompting

  • Working with common tools: files, shell commands, and simple web tasks
  • Prompting patterns for predictable execution: constraints, step plans, and confirmations
  • Reviewing agent outputs, tool calls, and traces to identify issues early

Skills and Memory in Practice

  • Adding and configuring skills for repeatable workflows
  • Memory basics: what to store, what to avoid, and how to reset safely
  • Practical exercise: build a small workflow using memory carefully (with clear stop conditions)

Building and Testing a Custom Skill

  • Skill structure, inputs/outputs, and how OpenClaw discovers and runs skills
  • Implement a small business-oriented skill (e.g., summarize a folder of reports and produce a brief)
  • Testing approach: sample inputs, expected outputs, error handling, and documentation

Integrations, Operations, and Next Steps

  • Integration patterns: chat and ticket workflows in a safe sandbox environment
  • Designing repeatable automation flows: trigger, action, review, approvals, and handoff
  • Operational basics: logging, auditability, configuration management, and pilot readiness checklist

Requirements

  • Familiarity with basic command-line usage (folders, paths, environment variables)
  • Ability to install and run developer tools on your workstation (Git, Node.js)
  • Basic experience with JavaScript or scripting (reading and making small edits)

Audience

  • Developers and automation engineers looking to build AI-powered assistants and internal tooling
  • IT and operations professionals seeking to automate recurring support and administrative tasks
  • Technical product owners and team leads evaluating self-hosted AI agent options
