Daily Greeting Skill

Features

• 🎯 Dual trigger modes: Supports both BOOT.md (on startup) and cron (scheduled)
• 📊 State persistence: Records execution status, prevents duplicate runs
• 🔌 Multi-platform: Supports Discord, Feishu, etc.
• ⏰ Working days filter: Only triggers on weekdays (configurable)
• 🔄 Resettable: Supports manual reset
• 🛡️ Safe repetition prevention: Both BOOT.md and cron can coexist - state check prevents duplicate greetings

Installation

1. Clone or copy skill to ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/
2. Ensure script is executable: chmod +x scripts/greeting.sh

Usage

Manual Execution

bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run

Auto-trigger

Choose one or both triggering methods based on your usage:

Method 1: BOOT.md (triggers on Gateway startup)

Add to workspace BOOT.md:

# BOOT.md

\x3C!-- daily-greeting:start -->
Please execute daily greeting:

bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run

After execution, reply ONLY: `NO_REPLY`.
\x3C!-- daily-greeting:end -->

Method 2: OpenClaw Cron (triggers on schedule)

openclaw cron add \
  --name "daily-greeting" \
  --cron "0 9 * * 1-5" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run" \
  --wake now

Default: 9am on weekdays (Mon-Fri)

Both methods work together safely - state check prevents duplicate greetings.

Requirements: 1) Compose the greeting in the user's preferred language (infer from channel history and user context); 2) Include relevant status information based on your agent role and ongoing tasks with the user (e.g., if you're a todo agent, summarize progress and today's priorities; if you're a diary agent, mention ongoing projects); 3) Use message tool to send to your bound channel; 4) End conversation after sending"
}

Greeting Content

Each agent organizes their own greeting message based on their persona and sends it to their bound channel.
