AC basic-memory
Gives your OpenClaw agent persistent memory across conversations by organizing entries in the native MEMORY.md and daily memory files. Automatically loads saved context at session start and saves important facts, decisions, and preferences during conversation. Use this skill whenever users say 'remember this', 'save this', 'don't forget', 'note that', 'what do you remember', 'forget [topic]', or when you detect they've shared something worth keeping — even if they don't explicitly ask. Also activate automatically at the start of every new session to load prior context.
As a process C 58/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, running it twice
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 58/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 2 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
- 65Failures and branches. 3 branches
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Steps. 12 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1157 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
