| name | dream |
| description | Dream is asynchronous insight delivery timed to the receiver's readiness rather than the sender's convenience. It covers overnight reports, pre-meeting briefings, dawn digests, and other messages that should arrive as ambient context before work begins. The spell's magic is timing plus framing: the receiver wakes up to the answer, not a pile of raw events. It works best when the message feels prepared, quiet, and exactly on time. It fails when it becomes another noisy alert stream wearing a moonlit costume. |

Dream
Deliver the briefing before the recipient wakes up needing it.
Overview
Dream is interpreted here as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now execution model.
Canonical source: Dream (spell)
Provider target: OpenClaw
When To Use
- You need a scheduled report, wake-up memo, morning brief, or overnight analysis drop.
- The value comes from arriving before a decision window opens, not from immediate back-and-forth.
- A recipient needs distilled signal from work that happened while they were offline.
- You want to schedule a Slack message or digest that arrives before your team's morning standup.
Workflow
- Identify the receiver, the wake moment, and the decision or action the briefing should support.
- Gather the overnight inputs, compress them into signal, and separate stable conclusions from still-moving facts.
- Choose the delivery form and schedule that best fits the receiver: email digest, Slack summary, dashboard snapshot, or calendar-attached note.
- Return the Dream package with the briefing itself, the send window, and the escalation rules for anything too urgent to wait.
- If Slack is available, use chat.scheduleMessage to time the briefing delivery to the target channel before the recipient's work begins.
Deliverables
- A scheduled briefing or digest template.
- A timing rule that says when it should land and why.
- A source list with freshness notes and any escalation exceptions.
Guardrails
- Do not turn Dream into stealth paging; urgent incidents still need the right real-time channel.
- Label confidence and staleness so a polished morning brief does not masquerade as omniscience.
Default Invocation
Use $dream to create an async briefing that arrives at the right future moment, already distilled for the person who will wake up to it.
