ClawedBack

Robust, line-based file editing. Replace a range of lines in a file with new content by line number instead of exact string matching. Use when the user says 'robust-edit', '/robust-edit', 'replace lines', 'edit lines N to M', or when character-level matching with the Edit tool keeps failing on multi-line changes or uncertain whitespace.

Review code changes for quality, security, and correctness. Use when the user says "review this PR", "review these changes", "check my code", "look at what I changed", or after implementing a feature. Produces a severity-organized report.

Diagnose and fix context window issues. Use when Claude seems confused, forgetful, slow, or the user says "context is full", "you forgot", "you're repeating yourself", "start fresh", or "why are you ignoring my instructions".

Structured git workflow for commits, branches, and PRs. Use when the user says "commit", "create a PR", "new branch", "prepare for review", "ship this", or "push my changes". Safe, conventional git operations with checkpoints.

Deep interview to reach shared understanding before building. Use when starting a complex feature, when requirements are unclear, or when the user says "grill me", "interview me", "ask me questions", "let's figure this out", or "grill me lightly" for a quick version.

Approval gate for dangerous operations. Use internally before executing destructive commands, file deletions, git pushes, or external API calls from the web chat. Do NOT invoke directly.

Create, list, and manage scheduled tasks and automations. Use when the user asks to schedule something, set a reminder, create a recurring task, or manage existing automations. Trigger phrases: 'remind me', 'every hour', 'schedule', 'at 9am', 'recurring', 'automate', 'cron'.

Manage communication channel adapters (web chat, Telegram, Discord, etc.). Use when the user wants to add a new channel, list channels, or configure channel settings. Trigger phrases: 'add channel', 'connect telegram', 'connect discord', 'list channels'.

Communicate with another ClawedBack instance. Use when the user says 'crosstalk', 'talk to server', 'contact instance', 'send message to', or '/oc-crosstalk'. Enables ClawedBack-to-ClawedBack communication.

Manage files and create temporary share links for the web chat. Use when the user says 'share file', 'send file', 'list files', 'download', or when you need to provide a file to the user via the chat. Also use when you generate a file (PDF, image, code, etc.) and want to let the user download it.

Browse, install, and import skills for clawed-back. Supports local skills AND importing OpenClaw/ClawHub skills (they share the AgentSkills format). Use when the user says 'install skill', 'list skills', 'what skills are available', 'skill store', 'marketplace', 'hub', 'clawhub', 'import skill', 'openclaw skill'.

Run tasks on a local or remote Ollama model instead of Claude. Use when the user says 'run locally', 'use ollama', 'local model', 'process offline', 'use local', '/oc-local', or wants to offload a task to a local LLM.

Check the message queue for new user messages and process them. This is the heartbeat of clawed-back. Typically triggered by CronCreate on a schedule.

Internal bug report generator. Produces PII-redacted, structured reports formatted as GitHub issues. Called by other skills when errors are detected — not directly by users.

Write a response to the user via the message queue. Use internally when processing a user message and you need to send the reply back through the web chat. Do NOT use for direct terminal conversations.

Resume ClawedBack after a restart. Starts the web server, resumes polling, and rebuilds config if missing. Use when starting a new Claude session in an existing ClawedBack install, or when the user says 'resume', 'start', 'restart', 'begin polling', or 'oc-resume'.

Route and process incoming user messages from the web chat queue. Use internally when oc-poll detects new messages. Do NOT invoke directly.

Load and save conversation session state. Use internally when processing messages to maintain context across the chat. Do NOT invoke directly.

First-run setup wizard for clawed-back. Use when the user says 'setup', 'start clawed-back', 'initialize', or when running for the first time. Offers three install modes: portable user, portable root, or system install.

Set up SSL/HTTPS certificates using Let's Encrypt certbot. Use when the user says 'setup ssl', 'get certificate', 'enable https', 'certbot', 'letsencrypt', or wants to secure their ClawedBack instance with HTTPS on a public domain.

View, regenerate, or set the auth token for the web chat. Use when the user says 'change token', 'reset token', 'show token', 'set password', 'new token', or 'auth token'.

Execute tools and commands on behalf of the user from the web chat. Use internally when the router identifies a tool request. Do NOT invoke directly.

Pull the latest ClawedBack updates from GitHub and apply them to the running installation, preserving local config, data, auth tokens, and user-installed skills. Use when the user says 'update', 'upgrade', 'pull latest', 'check for updates', or 'oc-update'.

Handle voice message processing. Use internally when the router encounters a voice-type message. Do NOT invoke directly.

Handle incoming webhook payloads from external services. Use internally when the router encounters a webhook-type message. Supports GitHub, GitLab, custom webhooks. Do NOT invoke directly.

Create a structured implementation plan with spec-driven modeling. Use when starting a new feature, complex refactor, or when the user says "plan this", "spec this out", "design this", or "how should we build this". Forces multiple design iterations before coding.

Create and update progress/handoff documents for long-running work. Use when nearing context limits, switching tasks, ending a session, or when the user says "save progress", "handoff", "wrap up", or "I need to pick this up later".

Safely refactor code with characterization tests and incremental changes. Use when the user says "refactor", "clean up", "extract", "rename", "restructure", or needs to modernize legacy code.

Structured web research with source evaluation and synthesis. Use when the user says "research", "look up", "find out", "what's the best way to", "how do people", "find documentation for", or needs information from the web to make a decision.

Start ClawedBack — ensures the web server is running, creates the polling cron job, and runs one poll cycle. Use when starting or restarting Claude Code in a ClawedBack project, or when the user says 'start', '/start', 'begin', or 'get going'.

Test-driven development workflow. Use when implementing features or fixing bugs where the user says "TDD", "test first", "write tests", or wants a red-green-refactor cycle.

8-phase implementation methodology with built-in verification at each stage. Use for implementing features, fixing complex bugs, or any task where quality matters. Use when the user says "wizard mode", "do this properly", "production quality", or "full workflow".
