What is Auto Logger?
Auto Logger provides a robust persistent memory layer for AI agents operating within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem. It serves as a digital scribe, ensuring that critical session data, user preferences, and task outcomes are never lost. By transforming ephemeral interactions into organized daily logs and curated long-term memory files, it enables agents to maintain context across multiple sessions and days.
This skill is essential for developers and power users who need a searchable, time-stamped audit trail of their agent's actions. It handles everything from simple keyword-triggered saves to complex, scheduled daily reviews, making it a cornerstone for building truly context-aware Openclaw Skills workflows.
Auto Logger Use Cases
- Automatically summarizing technical sessions at the end of a conversation to preserve context.
- Capturing system configuration changes, such as SMTP settings or environment variables, for future reference.
- Maintaining a daily log of completed tasks and pending items to streamline project management.
- Building a curated user profile (long-term memory) based on expressed habits, preferences, and recurring decisions.
How Auto Logger Works
- Monitoring Triggers: The skill watches for specific conditions such as session termination, scheduled cron intervals, or explicit user commands like "remember this."
- Context Extraction: It identifies and extracts key entities, task statuses, decision points, and priority levels from the active conversation or environment.
- File Generation: Captured data is formatted into structured Markdown and written to daily log files (e.g., memory/2026-03-01.md) within the workspace.
- Periodic Consolidation: A scheduled task reviews daily logs and distills high-priority information into a master MEMORY.md file for long-term storage and quick retrieval by Openclaw Skills.
Auto Logger Setup
To integrate Auto Logger into your environment, use the Openclaw Skills CLI to configure the necessary cron jobs and hooks:
# Add an hourly session summary task
openclaw cron add --name "hourly-log" --cron "0 * * * *" --command "execute session summary"
# Configure a daily review at 11 PM to consolidate memory
openclaw cron add --name "daily-review" --cron "0 23 * * *" --command "consolidate daily logs to MEMORY.md"
You should also register the onSessionEnd hook in your agent configuration to trigger an automatic summary whenever a dialogue concludes.
Auto Logger Data Schema & Taxonomy
Auto Logger organizes data within a dedicated memory directory to ensure clear taxonomy for Openclaw Skills agents:
| File / Directory | Purpose | Content Type |
|---|---|---|
memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md |
Daily Activity Log | Session summaries, task lists, event logs, and timestamps. |
MEMORY.md |
Long-term Memory | Curated user profiles, project summaries, and persistent preferences. |
skills/auto-logger/ |
Skill Configuration | Internal metadata and logic for the logger skill. |
Daily logs utilize standard Markdown headers (##), task lists (- [x]), and hashtags for improved searchability and categorization.
Auto Logger Advanced Features
- Scheduled Cron Integration: Automate memory consolidation and log rotations using standard cron syntax.
- Priority-Based Filtering: Automatically classifies information into high, medium, and low priority to prevent log bloat.
- Privacy Protection: Built-in rules to avoid logging raw passwords or sensitive PII while still noting that a configuration change occurred.
- Cross-Skill Collaboration: Can be triggered by other Openclaw Skills (like news briefers or devops tools) to record external task outcomes.
- Session Hooks: Seamless integration with session start/end events for zero-latency context capture.
