CertainLogic Onboarding Wizard

5 minutes to a productive agent. Not 5 days of trial and error. ⚡

v2.1.0

Built and dogfooded by CertainLogicAI — We want new users to succeed.

Most new OpenClaw users:

Install a dozen random skills
Discover half don't work on their OS
Uninstall, try again, hit more errors
A week later: frustrated, no productivity

This wizard scans your environment in ~10 seconds and gives you a focused install list with exact commands. Your agent does useful work on day 1 or 2, not day 8.

What It Actually Does

A guided onboarding system that:

Auto-detects your environment — checks what's installed, what's missing
Asks about your goals — developer, business, research, productivity
Scans for recommended skills — checks ClawHub for availability
Generates a personalized setup guide — markdown report with exact commands

It does NOT install anything. It just builds your todo list.

Time investment: 5 minutes reading the report. Not 5 days discovering by trial and error.

What It Does NOT Do

Claimed Feature	Reality
Auto-installs skills without asking	NO — Generates install commands. You run them when ready.
Scans your filesystem for secrets	NO — Only checks `~/.openclaw/skills/` and basic config.
Guarantees everything works	NO — Recommendations based on our testing. You verify.
Replaces reading SKILL.md files	NO — Encourages reading docs before installing.
Auto-configures API keys	NO — Tells you what's needed. You handle credentials.

Solid Free Skills We Recommend (Not Ours)

Skill	Creator	Why We Vouch
gog	steipete	Google Workspace CLI (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Contacts, Sheets, Docs). Real code, OAuth-based.
things-mac	—	macOS task manager integration. If you use Things 3, this is essential.
himalaya	pimalaya	Terminal email client (IMAP). Stable, documented, actively maintained.
notion	—	Knowledge base integration. API-based, well-documented.
skill-creator	—	Build your own skills. Well-documented, follows OpenClaw conventions.
taskflow	—	Durable task management. For workflows that span sessions.
github	—	Repository access. Standard integration.

Honest Limitations

Limitation	Truth
Recommendations are opinions	Based on our testing. Your needs may differ.
Auto-detection is heuristic	Checks common paths. May miss custom installs.
Availability checks are best-effort	ClawHub API may lag. Skill might exist even if check fails.
Does not verify skill quality post-install	Install ≠ works. Test everything.
macOS-centric recommendations	PA Pack assumes macOS/Things 3. Linux users need alternatives.

Free Is the Product

Everything in this skill is free. No feature gating, no "upgrade to unlock."

What You Get	How
Full environment scan	`python3 scripts/onboarding_wizard.py --scan-only`
All goal profiles	Pass any goal: developer, business, research, productivity, beginner
One-command setup scripts	`python3 scripts/onboarding_wizard.py developer --setup-script`
Post-install verification	`python3 scripts/onboarding_wizard.py --verify`
Weekly checkups	`python3 scripts/onboarding_wizard.py --weekly-checkup`
Team onboarding export	`python3 scripts/onboarding_wizard.py developer --team-export /path`

Pro ($29) is a relationship, not an unlock:

Priority support (24 hour response SLA)
Early access to new features
Custom industry templates (healthcare, legal, finance)
One-on-one onboarding call (15 min)

If you can find a free OpenClaw onboarding skill with better documentation or more thorough error handling, install it. We'll wait.

Why Not Fork This?

Clones copy code. They don't copy the documentation depth, the edge-case handling, or the active maintenance. This wizard ships with:

Every failure path has a specific, actionable error message
Every recommendation explains why it's recommended
Weekly checkups that actually catch drift, not just print a timestamp

After running the wizard you get:
