What is COMMS.md Reader?
COMMS.md Reader is a professional utility designed for Openclaw Skills that allows AI agents to perform highly personalized outreach. By interpreting a recipient's COMMS.md file, the agent can adjust the nuances of a message—such as formality, punctuation style, and opening lines—to align with the recipient's stated preferences. This ensures that every interaction is respectful, effective, and follows the recipient's unique interaction protocols.
Beyond just tone, the skill intelligently handles logistics. It scans for weekly rhythms to avoid sending notifications during protected hours and checks sync philosophies to decide if a request should be an email or a meeting proposal. This results in a more human-centric automation experience that prioritizes the recipient's boundaries and communication style.
COMMS.md Reader Use Cases
- Preparing personalized outreach for high-value contacts who publish their preferences via Openclaw Skills.
- Determining the optimal time to send messages based on a contact's specific weekly rhythm.
- Selecting the correct communication channel (e.g., email vs. sync call) based on the recipient's decision model.
- Mirroring a recipient's specific async voice and mechanics to build rapport more effectively.
How COMMS.md Reader Works
- The agent locates the recipient's COMMS.md file through user-provided URLs or indexed local workspace files.
- The skill parses the document across seven critical dimensions, including channel preferences and async voice mechanics.
- It classifies the current task (e.g., urgent vs. simple) to determine the best delivery method.
- The agent calibrates the draft's tone by applying closeness tiers and avoiding specific anti-patterns listed in the file.
- Availability windows are checked to suggest meeting slots or schedule message delivery.
- The final output is presented to the user with a summary of the adaptations made based on the Openclaw Skills framework.
COMMS.md Reader Setup
To begin using this skill within your Openclaw Skills environment, ensure the comms-md-reader manifest is active. No complex installation is required, but you should provide your agent with access to the directories where your contacts' COMMS.md files are stored.
# No specific CLI installation required beyond adding the skill to your agent's manifest.
