How to Talk to Your Personal AI Assistant

Your ClawOps bot is a general-purpose OpenClaw AI assistant. You can talk to it in Telegram like you’d talk to a person, no special syntax needed.

What your bot can do

Remember things

Section titled “Remember things”

Your bot has a structured memory system that persists across sessions and model switches, not just within a single conversation.

At the start of every session, your bot automatically reads:

  • Today’s and yesterday’s daily log (decisions, tasks, anything you worked on)
  • Its long-term curated memory
  • Rules it has learned from past mistakes

After significant tasks, it logs what happened. Before switching models or ending a long session, it writes a handover note so nothing is lost.

Remember that I always want code examples in TypeScript.

What did we work on yesterday?

Pick up where we left off on the API refactor.

You can also explicitly ask it to remember or learn something:

Add this to your learnings: always check git status before saying code is pushed.

Run commands

Section titled “Run commands”

Your bot has shell access to its own server for technical tasks.

What’s the disk usage on the server?

Tips for better responses

Section titled “Tips for better responses”

Be specific. Instead of “tell me about AI,” try “explain the difference between GPT-4 and Claude 3.5 Sonnet.”

Provide context. If you’re working on something, explain what you’re trying to achieve.

Ask follow-ups. Your bot remembers the conversation, so you can build on previous messages.

Use longer messages. Don’t be afraid to write a paragraph. More context means better answers.
