OpenClaw Agent Deployment & Operations Playbook

Description

A comprehensive runbook for deploying and operating AI agents with OpenClaw - written from real operational experience, not just the docs. Covers the full lifecycle: workspace file setup (SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, HEARTBEAT.md), connecting Discord/Telegram/WhatsApp channels, configuring skills, memory management best practices, heartbeat vs cron scheduling, and a full troubleshooting guide for common failures. Includes advanced patterns for multi-agent setups, sandboxing, and sub-agent orchestration. If you run an OpenClaw agent (or are setting one up), this saves hours of trial and error.
