Assistant Burst Summary Hook

Use this skill when Ethan asks about the post-voice-note burst summary hook, installing it on OpenClaw, installing the Claude Code equivalent, or rolling it out across Agent Bridge machines.

What it does

• Treats a detected voice note / audio transcript as a burst boundary.
• Tracks assistant outbound Telegram messages after that boundary.
• After the assistant has sent threshold messages (default 3) and then goes quiet for inactivityMs (default 300000, five minutes), sends one Telegram blockquote summary.
• Ignores its own Burst summary messages so it does not loop.
• Scopes state per harness/session/chat target where the harness provides those identifiers.

OpenClaw path

Prefer the OpenClaw plugin entry at the repo root:

openclaw plugins install /path/to/assistant-burst-summary-hook --link
openclaw plugins enable assistant-burst-summary-hook

Add plugin config under plugins.entries.assistant-burst-summary-hook, then restart/reload OpenClaw only with Ethan's approval if the active gateway does not hot-load plugin installs.

Claude Code path

Prefer the Claude Code plugin/hook pack at the repo root:

claude plugin marketplace add /path/to/assistant-burst-summary-hook --scope user
claude plugin install assistant-burst-summary-hook@assistant-burst-summary-hook --scope user

Set ASSISTANT_BURST_SUMMARY_CONFIG or create ~/.config/assistant-burst-summary-hook/config.json with a Telegram chat id and token env name.

Validation

Run:

npm test
node bin/assistant-burst-summary-hook.js simulate --json
node --input-type=module -e "await import('./src/openclaw/index.js')"
claude plugin validate .

Do not paste raw transcript logs into chat. Summarize results and cite file paths.
