💡 Best Practices

To get the most out of your OpenClaw agent, treat it like a high-level hire. Give it the tools and identity it needs to operate autonomously.

Practice	Details
Dedicated Identity	Provide a dedicated email (e.g., agent@yourcompany.com) and separate social media accounts. Keeps logs clean and avoids session conflicts.
Tooling & Access	Configure Search APIs (Brave/Google), set up Email App Passwords, messaging bots (Telegram/Discord), and grant access to platform APIs (YouTube, WordPress, etc.).
Agent Squads	Use the "Mission Control" pattern — spawn specialized sub-agents (Researcher, Writer, SEO, QA) under a lead coordinator.
Persistence	Use SOUL.md for personality and MEMORY.md for long-term facts. If you want the agent to remember it, ensure it's written to a file.
