| name | project-image |
| description | In D&D, Project Image creates an illusory copy of yourself at a distant location — you can see through its eyes, speak through its mouth, and cast spells through it. The real-world version is remote presence: avatars, recorded video stand-ins, bot representations, asynchronous video messages. Project Image is the spell for being in two places at once — attending a meeting via avatar while working on something else, leaving a recorded presence in a channel, or deploying an automated representative that speaks with your voice and authority within defined limits. |
Project Image
Project a version of yourself into a place you cannot physically be.
Overview
Project Image is interpreted here as a hybrid spell with a shipping-now execution model.
Canonical source: Project Image (spell)
Provider target: OpenClaw
When To Use
- You need presence in a meeting, channel, or space you cannot physically attend.
- A recorded or automated stand-in can represent you for routine interactions.
- Remote participation requires more presence than text but less commitment than live attendance.
Workflow
- Determine what kind of presence is needed: live avatar, recorded message, or automated representative.
- Define the scope of authority: what can the projection say or do on your behalf?
- Create and deploy the projection: join the meeting, post the recording, or activate the bot.
- Monitor for situations that exceed the projection's authority and require your real presence.
- Debrief on what the projection handled and what required escalation.
Deliverables
- A deployed remote presence: avatar, recording, or automated representative.
- Clear authority boundaries: what the projection can and cannot do.
- An escalation path for situations that require the real person.
Guardrails
- Remote projections must be disclosed as projections. Pretending a bot or recording is a live human is deception.
- Authority limits must be explicit. A projection that agrees to commitments outside its scope creates real obligations.
- Do not use projected presence to avoid accountability. If a situation requires your real attention, be present.
Default Invocation
Use $project-image to set up remote presence — an avatar, recorded stand-in, or automated representative — that projects you into a space you cannot physically attend.
