# OpenClaw Agent Guide (Operator-Managed)

This document provides a technical reference for AI agents managing the **OpenClaw** deployment in this repository.

## 🏗️ Architecture & Configuration Lifecycle

The deployment has been migrated to the **OpenClaw Operator** framework.

### 1. Persistent Storage & State Protection
*   **Storage Claim**: Uses the existing PVC `openclaw-data` (`openebs-hostpath`).
*   **Zero-Drift Merge**: Configured with `mergeMode: merge`. Any declarative base config applied via K8s is safely deep-merged with runtime configuration mutations (e.g. linked channels, active sessions) written by the agent inside the PVC at `/home/openclaw/.openclaw/openclaw.json`.
*   **Stateful Memory**: The agent's wisdom (`MEMORY.md`, `SOUL.md`, SQLite databases) resides in the persistent claim and survives pod restarts naturally.

### 2. Sidecar Mapping

The multi-container pod structure is managed natively by the operator controller:

| Legay Pod Container | Operator Controller Replacement |
|---|---|
| `chromium-sidecar` | Managed natively under `spec.chromium` with autowired CDP endpoint |
| `sidecar-proxy` | Managed natively by operator gateway proxy sidecar |
| `git-sync` | Retained under `spec.sidecars` to fetch skills from private git repository |
| `skill-stabilizer` | Retained under `spec.sidecars` to copy skills to the flat PVC structure |
| `install-uv-python` (init) | Managed natively by the operator under `spec.runtimeDeps.python: true` |

### 3. Multi-Agent Architecture & Agents-as-Code (ADR 0001)
*   **Conductor**: The main session runs as the lean front-of-house coordinator (`SOUL.md`), handling fast actions (< 2s) directly with MCP tools and delegating complex domain tasks via `sessions_spawn`.
*   **Specialist Subagents**: 9 specialized subagents defined as code in the knowledge wiki:
    - 🩺 `agents/hebamme.md` (Baby development & sleep, pediatrician safety boundaries)
    - 🍳 `agents/koch.md` (Ninja CREAMi Deluxe, Airfryer, KitchenAid, leftover utilization)
    - 🏡 `agents/grabengasse.md` (Home Assistant, Hue, Sonos multiroom, Grabengasse 7)
    - 🏰 `agents/regensburg.md` (Stadtamhof insider, RVV, playgrounds, local dining)
    - ✈️ `agents/travel.md` (Vacation itineraries, packing lists, travel concierge)
    - 🎬 `agents/media.md` (Jellyfin streaming/requests, Jellyseerr, Spotify audiobooks)
    - 🔍 `agents/recherche.md` (Deep research, ALLRIS Stadtrat, Friday bridge tracking)
    - 🛒 `agents/shopping.md` (Supermarket deals, Geizhals best prices, Bring! lists)
    - 🏋️ `agents/fitness.md` (Garmin Connect 148 tools, Tacx Flux 2, home gym supersets)
*   **Modifying & Adding Agents**: To update prompt logic, tone, or tool instructions for any agent, edit its markdown file directly in `knowledge-wiki/agents/<name>.md` and commit to git. No Kubernetes pod restarts required!
*   **Multi-Turn Domain Stickiness**: When a conversation spans multiple turns in a subagent domain (e.g. refining a recipe or planning a trip), the Conductor detects domain continuity and routes to the same agent with the state bridge `<!-- DOMAIN_STATE -->`.

## 🔧 Applying Configuration Changes

To perform modifications or rotate api keys:
1. **Secrets**: Edit string fields in [openclaw.secret.yaml](file:///Users/moritz/src/infrapuzzle/k8s/openclaw/openclaw.secret.yaml).
2. **Declarative Base Config**: Edit fields under `spec.config.raw` in [openclaw-instance.secret.yaml](file:///Users/moritz/src/infrapuzzle/k8s/openclaw/openclaw-instance.secret.yaml).
3. **Apply & Rollout**: Apply the files. The operator tracks config hashes and performs an automated rolling update of the StatefulSet automatically (no manual restart needed!):
   ```bash
   kubectl apply -f k8s/openclaw/openclaw.secret.yaml
   kubectl apply -f k8s/openclaw/openclaw-instance.secret.yaml
   kubectl apply -f k8s/openclaw/cronjob-wiki-backup.secret.yaml
   ```

## 🚨 Troubleshooting & Live Verification

If the agent is offline or failing:

### 1. Verify Deployment Health
Ensure that the `OpenClawInstance` is successfully reconciled:
```bash
kubectl get openclawinstance openclaw -n openclaw
# Expected: PHASE=Running, READY=True
```

### 2. Verify Pod & Container States
Check that all 6 containers inside the StatefulSet are fully functional:
```bash
kubectl get pods -n openclaw -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=openclaw
```

### 3. Check Live Logs
Inspect the core gateway engine:
```bash
kubectl logs -n openclaw openclaw-0 -c openclaw --tail=100
```

Inspect the Chromium browser engine:
```bash
kubectl logs -n openclaw openclaw-0 -c chromium --tail=100
```
