Agent Builder
Build high-performing OpenClaw agents end-to-end. Use when you want to design a new agent (persona + operating rules) and generate the required OpenClaw workspace files (SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, AGENTS.md, USER.md, HEARTBEAT.md, optional MEMORY.md + memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md). Also use to iterate on an existing agent’s behavior, guardrails, autonomy model, heartbeat plan, and skill roster.
Why this rating
Deterministic checks triggered by the tool capabilities and evidence.
- Locality: Local
Generates a local OpenClaw workspace using files like `IDENTITY.md`, `SOUL.md`, and `AGENTS.md`.
- Data access: Sensitive
Agent rule and memory files (e.g., `MEMORY.md`) can contain private instructions and context.
- Action surface: Write
Creates and updates multiple workspace markdown files as part of the build/iteration workflow.
Best practices
Follow these steps to reduce risk when using this skill.
- Review generated `AGENTS.md` guardrails before enabling high-autonomy modes.
- Avoid storing secrets in agent workspace files; use env vars or a secret manager instead.
- Keep `MEMORY.md` and `memory/` entries out of public repositories and shared logs.

Max-risk rule
If any capability reaches a higher level, the entire indicator level bumps up to keep ratings deterministic and easy to scan.
