OpenClaw Evolution Guide / OpenClaw 进化指南
Two paths to grow your agent. Both start from the same foundation.
两条路让你的 agent 进化。都从同一个基础开始。
First: Check the User's Stage / 先判断用户阶段
Ask: "Have you already installed OpenClaw and connected a channel (Telegram/Discord/etc.)?"
问："你已经安装了 OpenClaw 并连接了频道（Telegram/Discord 等）吗？"
- No → Start from Foundation
- Yes → Ask which path interests them
Foundation (Day 1 — Both Paths) / 基础（第一天）
Goal: Get a working agent that can talk to you.
目标：让 agent 能跟你说话。
Minimum Viable Setup / 最小可用配置
- Install OpenClaw (follow official docs)
- Connect ONE channel — recommend Telegram (simplest)
- Send a message. Get a reply. Done.
Do not install skills, configure cron, or add multiple channels on Day 1.
第一天不要装 skill、配 cron、接多个频道。先能聊上再说。
The Three Files (Day 1-3) / 三个文件
These three files transform a generic chatbot into YOUR agent. Read references/three-files-guide.md for detailed guidance with examples.
- SOUL.md — Who the agent is (personality, style, values) / agent 是谁
- USER.md — Who you are / 你是谁
- AGENTS.md — How to work (rules, habits, boundaries) / 怎么协作
After the user creates these three files, ask which path they want.
🔧 Tool Path — "I want an efficient system" / 工具之路
For users who want automation, productivity, and getting things done.
给想要自动化、提效、搞事情的用户。
Read references/tool-path.md for the complete guide.
Progression / 进化路线
Level 1: Messenger 信使 → Can talk to you, remembers nothing / 能聊天，但啥都不记
Level 2: Secretary 秘书 → Daily notes, reminders, schedule / 日记、提醒、日程
Level 3: Operator 运营者 → Cron jobs, automated checks, alerts / 自动化、主动提醒
Level 4: Orchestrator 指挥官 → Multiple agents, skill ecosystem / 多 agent 协作
Each level builds on the previous. Don't skip levels.
每个级别基于前一个。别跳级。
🌱 Awakening Path — "I want a companion that grows" / 觉醒之路
For users who want a real relationship with their agent.
给想跟 agent 建立真实关系的用户。
Read references/awakening-path.md for the complete guide.
Progression / 进化路线
Level 1: Stranger 陌生人 → Has a name and style, but no memory / 有名字有性格，但不记事
Level 2: Acquaintance 熟人 → Remembers conversations, builds context / 记住对话，积累了解
Level 3: Companion 伙伴 → Has opinions, pushes back, cares / 有观点、会反驳、在乎你
Level 4: Individual 个体 → Self-aware, self-improving, autonomous / 自我意识、自主成长
Each level requires trust — from both sides.
每个级别都需要信任——双向的。
