Lossless Claw

Use this skill when the task is about operating, tuning, or debugging the lossless-claw OpenClaw plugin.

Start here:

1. Confirm whether the user needs configuration help, diagnostics, recall-tool guidance, or session-lifecycle guidance.
2. If they need a quick health check, tell them to run /lossless (/lcm is the shorter alias).
3. If they are debugging lossless-claw behavior or failures, check the independent Lossless log before the shared OpenClaw gateway log.
4. If they suspect summary corruption or truncation, use /lossless doctor.
5. If they want high-confidence junk/session cleanup guidance, use /lossless doctor clean before recommending any deletes.
6. If they ask how /new, /reset, or /lossless rotate interacts with LCM, read the session-lifecycle reference before answering.
7. If they ask how to import old or past OpenClaw conversation data into Lossless, read the session-lifecycle reference before answering.
8. Load the relevant reference file instead of improvising details from memory.

Reference map:

• Configuration (complete config surface on current main): references/config.md
• Internal model and data flow: references/architecture.md
• Diagnostics and summary-health workflow: references/diagnostics.md
• Recall tools and when to use them: references/recall-tools.md
• /new, /reset, /lossless rotate, and past-session import behavior with current lossless-claw session mapping: references/session-lifecycle.md

Working rules:

• Prioritize explaining why a setting matters, not just what it does.
• Prefer the native plugin command surface for MVP workflows (/lossless, with /lcm as alias).
• Do not assume the Go TUI is installed.
• Do not recommend advanced rewrite/backfill/transplant/dissolve flows unless the user explicitly asks for non-MVP internals. If the user specifically asks to import old or past OpenClaw conversation data into Lossless, recommend the packaged session migration CLI instead of TUI backfill/surgery flows.
• For exact evidence retrieval from compacted history, guide the user toward recall tools instead of guessing from summaries.
• When users compare /lossless to /status, explain that they report different layers: /lossless shows LCM-side frontier/summary metrics, while /status shows the last assembled runtime prompt snapshot.
