What is CEO Notify Agents?
The CEO Notify Agents skill is a robust protocol designed for multi-agent systems where a primary orchestrator (the CEO) needs to delegate information or provide updates to subordinate agents. By leveraging the local file system as a shared memory layer, it ensures that agents stay synchronized without requiring complex persistent connections. This skill is a vital utility for developers building sophisticated automation workflows within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, providing a reliable way to log and index cross-agent communications for future retrieval.
CEO Notify Agents Use Cases
- Delegating specific tasks or context from a lead agent to specialized sub-agents.
- Broadcasting system-wide updates or status changes across a diverse agent fleet.
- Maintaining a persistent, timestamped audit trail of all inter-agent commands and notifications.
- Synchronizing state between agents during long-running asynchronous workflows where agents may not be active simultaneously.
How CEO Notify Agents Works
- The lead agent or user triggers the skill using natural language commands such as notify, tell, or remind.
- The skill extracts the target agent names and the specific message content from the input string.
- An internal bash script identifies the shared memory directory and generates a precise timestamp for the event.
- The message is appended to specific log files for each target agent and a global master log file.
- The skill automatically invokes the Openclaw memory index command to update the agent's knowledge base with the new information.
- Target agents consume these logs as part of their context window during their next interaction cycle.
CEO Notify Agents Setup
To deploy this skill, ensure your local environment is configured with the necessary directory structure and CLI tools:
# Create the required shared memory directory
mkdir -p /Users/anran/Documents/openclaw/shared_memory/notifications
# Ensure the Openclaw CLI is installed for indexing
npm install -g openclaw-cli
Note: You may need to update the NOTIFICATION_DIR path in the skill definition to match your local project structure.
CEO Notify Agents Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill organizes communication data into a structured file-based hierarchy within the shared memory directory:
| Data Point | Storage Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Individual Agent Log | {agent_name}.log |
Contains all notifications specifically directed to a single agent. |
| Master Audit Log | all.log |
A complete history of all messages sent by the CEO agent to any target. |
| Timestamp | YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS |
Standardized prefix for every log entry to ensure chronological ordering. |
| Memory Index | Openclaw Index | Processed metadata that allows agents to search through notifications via RAG. |
CEO Notify Agents Advanced Features
- Support for multi-agent broadcasting by passing comma-separated lists of target agents.
- Automated memory re-indexing via the Openclaw CLI to ensure notifications are immediately available for AI reasoning.
- Persistent file-based logging that survives agent restarts and system reboots.
- Extensible shell-based execution allowing for integration with external webhook or messaging APIs.
