Install in OpenClaw
/install reflection
Description
Learns when to stop and review. Self-critiques before showing you, fewer revision rounds.
Usage Guidance
Install only if you want the agent to keep local reflection notes across sessions. Periodically review ~/reflection/reflections.md and ~/reflection/patterns.md, avoid saving secrets or confidential details there, and enable HEARTBEAT.md integration only if you want recurring reflection checks.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: reflection
Version: 1.1.0
The OpenClaw 'reflection' skill is designed for AI agent self-improvement, logging lessons and detecting patterns. All file system interactions are confined to the `~/reflection/` directory, explicitly declared in `SKILL.md` and used for benign setup operations like `mkdir -p ~/reflection/archive` in `setup.md`. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized command execution, network activity, obfuscation, or malicious prompt injection instructions against the agent. The instructions for the agent are solely focused on its stated purpose of self-reflection and transparent communication with the user.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's purpose is pre-delivery review, mistake logging, pattern detection, and future lesson surfacing; the local reflection files directly support that purpose.
Instruction Scope
Activation triggers are broad, including important deliverables and user corrections, but they are visible in the instructions and central to the skill's quality-review workflow.
Install Mechanism
Setup creates files under ~/reflection/, adds an entry to MEMORY.md, and optionally integrates with HEARTBEAT.md; there are no executable scripts, package installs, credentials, network calls, or obfuscation.
Credentials
The skill reads and writes a narrow local state directory plus workspace coordination files for registration; this is proportionate for persistent reflection, though saved notes may contain sensitive project context if the agent logs it carelessly.
Persistence & Privilege
Persistence is intentional, local, and disclosed through the architecture and setup docs; it can influence future agent behavior, so users should understand that before installing.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install reflection - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/reflection - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
