A practical PDF + templates to help you ship a local-first OpenClaw assistant that’s actually useful: safe tool use, repeatable workflows, and “receipts only” execution.
- Copy/paste setup + folder skeleton
- Morning Brief + reminders (cron vs heartbeat)
- Security checklist (prompt injection, secrets, skills)
- Trust contract: artifacts, sources, confirmations
- Builders shipping a real assistant (tools, automations, and outputs you can trust).
