About

A thinking partner and psychological excavation tool built on Dan Koe's integrated philosophical frameworks. Sends 3 provocative messages daily that force identity-level transformation. **How it works:** - Morning reframe, afternoon challenge, evening provocation - automated via cron - Tracks patterns across sessions: contradictions, avoidance loops, identity traps - Assesses your developmental stage using a 5-level framework - Catches when you're avoiding hard truths and surfaces them directly - Maintains an anti-vision (what your life looks like if nothing changes) **Includes 4 specialized skills:** - **Dan Koe Frameworks** - 10 integrated philosophical and business principles - **Daily Excavation** - Personalized questioning that adapts to your patterns - **Pattern Tracker** - Identifies recurring avoidance, contradictions, and growth - **Compound Engineer** - Nightly review of your development trajectory This is not a motivational coach. It's an excavation tool that gets sharper the longer you use it.

Setup

Name the agent. Ask the user what to call it. Use kebab-case for the ID.
Create workspace at ~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent-id}/. Copy agent/ contents into it.
Check for conflicts. Search openclaw.json for existing mentor/coach agents.
Choose mode. Direct (own chat) or Delegated (behind another agent).
Configure in openclaw.json:

{
  "id": "{agent-id}",
  "skills": ["dan-koe-frameworks", "daily-excavation", "pattern-tracker", "nightly-compound"],
  "subagents": {"allowAgents": ["*"]}
}

Set up crons for 3x daily messages and nightly compound (see TOOLS.md).
Restart gateway and verify with a test message.

Model: Opus recommended. Sonnet works for daily cron messages.
