What is Memory Onboarding Wizard?

The Memory Onboarding Wizard is a specialized tool designed to solve the primary challenge of AI agents: the lack of persistent context. By utilizing Openclaw Skills, this wizard automates the creation of a standardized memory hierarchy, ensuring your agent recognizes its user and remembers past interactions from the very first session.

This skill acts as a foundational bridge between a fresh installation and a fully contextualized assistant. It guides the user through a brief interactive process to establish identity, preferences, and operational logs, preventing the 'blank slate' problem that often hinders agent performance.

Memory Onboarding Wizard Use Cases

  • Initializing a new AI agent workspace for the first time.
  • Restoring missing or corrupted memory configuration files.
  • Migrating an existing agent to the Openclaw Skills memory standard.
  • Rapidly bootstrapping multiple agents with unique user profiles and timezones.

How Memory Onboarding Wizard Works

  1. The user executes the wizard script within their designated workspace.
  2. The system checks for the presence of the core memory directory structure and long-term storage files.
  3. It initiates an interactive 3-question survey to capture essential user metadata (name, timezone, and primary use case).
  4. The wizard generates Markdown-based memory files including MEMORY.md, HEARTBEAT.md, and USER.md based on the provided inputs.
  5. A final validation sweep is performed to ensure file integrity and provide the user with immediate next steps.

Memory Onboarding Wizard Setup

To get started with this component of your Openclaw Skills library, run the following command from your workspace directory:

# Navigate to your workspace
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace

# Run the onboarding wizard
python3 scripts/memory-onboarding-wizard.py

For automated deployments or headless environments, use the non-interactive flag:

python3 scripts/memory-onboarding-wizard.py --non-interactive

Memory Onboarding Wizard Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill organizes data into a structured hierarchy to optimize how the agent retrieves information:

File Purpose Storage Type
MEMORY.md Curated, high-level long-term memory Permanent
memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md Raw daily session logs and tactical notes Ephemeral/Daily
HEARTBEAT.md Recurring task checklists and health monitoring Operational
USER.md User-specific identity and preference data Profile

Memory Onboarding Wizard Advanced Features

  • Custom workspace pathing via the --workspace flag for multi-agent management.
  • Non-interactive mode for CI/CD or scripted environment provisioning.
  • Automated directory creation and template injection to ensure schema consistency.
  • Seamless upgrade path to the full Memory Pack for features like semantic search and auto-compaction.
