The agent harness performance optimization system. Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond.
OpenClaw agent workspace with memory and watchdog scripts
Thoth System is a local agent harness for OpenClaw. It adds a workspace of markdown files for identity, rules, memory, and handoff, then pairs that with shell scripts that watch the system, save context before restart, and verify updates. The installer personalizes the setup and creates the full agent workspace for you.
Builders who want an OpenClaw agent that remembers sessions, follows safety rules, and runs with built-in recovery.
You can run a more consistent OpenClaw agent that preserves context, checks itself, and improves from past mistakes.
What it does
Persistent memory
Uses file-based memory and vector search so the agent can keep facts across sessions.
Self-healing watchdog
`scripts/smart-watchdog.sh` monitors the gateway and SQLite WAL and tries to fix issues automatically.
Handoff before restart
`scripts/pre-restart-handoff.sh` saves context before compaction or restart and restores it on wake.
Self-improvement log
Records lessons in `workspace/memory/decisions/lessons-learned.md` and promotes repeated fixes into `workspace/SOUL.md`.
Safety and honesty rules
`workspace/SECURITY-RULES.md` and `workspace/HONESTY-RULES.md` define data protection and no-fabrication rules.
Built-in skills
`skills/agent-doctor` handles self-diagnostics and `skills/agent-forge` creates new skills.
Interactive setup
`install.sh` asks for personal details and configures the workspace automatically.

Who is this for?
Thoth System is for OpenClaw users who want a complete agent workspace instead of wiring memory, diagnostics, crons, and safety rules by hand:
- solo builders running a personal OpenClaw assistant;
- operators who need memory, handoff, watchdog scripts, and self-diagnostics in one install;
- agent tinkerers who want a working reference system to fork and adapt.
It is not a hosted SaaS. You run it on your machine and keep responsibility for secrets, configs, and external actions.
What You Get
- Persistent Memory — file-based + vector search. Agent remembers everything across sessions
- Self-Healing — smart watchdog monitors gateway, SQLite WAL, fixes issues automatically
- Handoff System — context saved before compaction, restored on wake. Agent never "forgets"
- Security Rules — data never leaks, ports locked, tokens protected
- Honesty Rules — agent never fabricates facts, admits mistakes immediately
- 3 Auto-Crons — daily backup, morning briefing, evening diary
- 2 Built-in Skills — Agent Doctor (self-diagnostics) + Agent Forge (create new skills)
- Voice Support — local Whisper transcription (no API keys needed)
- Interactive Setup — installer asks your name, agent name, timezone. Personalizes everything
Requirements
- OpenClaw (any 2026+ version)
- Any LLM (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini)
- macOS or Linux
- Node.js 20+
Installation (2 minutes)
git clone https://github.com/AlekseiUL/openclaw-superagent.git
cd openclaw-superagent
bash install.sh
The installer will ask:
- Agent name
- Your name
- Telegram ID (optional)
- Timezone
Everything is configured automatically.

Self-Improvement System
The agent learns from mistakes:
- Lessons Learned — every correction is logged in
memory/decisions/lessons-learned.md - Graduation — if the same mistake happens 3+ times, the lesson is promoted to SOUL.md permanently
- Patterns — recurring issues are tracked in
memory/patterns.mdwith automation proposals
Security
- Gateway bound to
loopback(127.0.0.1) — not accessible from outside - API keys only in
.env, never in config or logs allowFromrestricts Telegram access to owner only- No data sent externally without explicit permission
- Files deleted to trash, never permanently
After Installation
The agent will:
- Ask you 5 questions to personalize SOUL.md
- Set up memory structure
- Configure compaction with context preservation
- Start 3 automatic crons (backup, morning check, evening diary)
- Report what's done and what needs manual setup
Thoth System — Полная система AI-агента для OpenClaw
Превращает пустой OpenClaw в полноценного AI-агента с памятью, самодиагностикой, самообучением, голосом и автоматикой — за 2 минуты.
Что получаете
- Постоянная память — файловая + векторный поиск. Агент помнит всё между сессиями
- Самовосстановление — watchdog следит за gateway, SQLite WAL, чинит проблемы автоматически
- Система handoff — контекст сохраняется перед компактификацией, восстанавливается при пробуждении
- Правила безопасности — данные не утекают, порты закрыты, токены защищены
- Правила честности — агент не выдумывает, признаёт ошибки сразу
- 3 автокрона — ежедневный бэкап, утренняя сводка, вечерний дневник
- 2 встроенных скилла — Агент-доктор (самодиагностика) + Агент-кузница (создание скиллов)
- Голос — локальный Whisper (без API ключей)
- Интерактивная установка — установщик спрашивает имя, таймзону, персонализирует всё
Требования
- OpenClaw (любая версия 2026+)
- Любая модель (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini)
- macOS или Linux
- Node.js 20+
Установка (2 минуты)
git clone https://github.com/AlekseiUL/openclaw-superagent.git
cd openclaw-superagent
bash install.sh
Установщик спросит имя агента, ваше имя, Telegram ID и таймзону. Всё настроит автоматически.
Система самосовершенствования
- Уроки — каждая ошибка записывается в
memory/decisions/lessons-learned.md - Graduation — ошибка 3+ раза → правило навсегда в SOUL.md
- Паттерны — повторяющиеся проблемы отслеживаются с предложением автоматизации
Безопасность
- Gateway на loopback — недоступен извне
- API ключи только в .env
- allowFrom ограничивает доступ к боту
- Данные наружу — только с разрешения
- Удаление — только в корзину
