Description
Optimizes OpenClaw MD files by splitting TOOLS.md, enforcing atomic rules, and loading scenes on demand to keep bootstraps lean under 3KB.
README (SKILL.md)
Bootstrap Optimizer
Keep your OpenClaw MD file system lean, maintainable, and never bloated again.
Problems Solved
| Pain Point | Consequence |
|---|---|
| All rules piled into MEMORY.md | Version drift, critical rules truncated |
| No ownership for new rules | Changes spread across 4 places, never in sync |
| TOOLS.md exceeds 12KB | Massive bootstrap on every session |
| Bare filenames in cross-references | Broken links, chaotic relationships |
Four-Layer File Architecture
| Layer | Files | Loading |
|---|---|---|
| Core (Permanent) | MEMORY.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md | Every session, full load |
| Execution (On-demand) | SCHEDULING.md, INSTRUCTIONS.md, SOUL.md | Triggered by scene |
| Project (Current) | USER.md, IDENTITY.md, TOOLS.md | Referenced as needed |
| Archive | AGENTS_full.md, DREAMS.md, HEARTBEAT.md | No rule participation |
Core Principles
- Atomic: MEMORY.md stores only permanently true atomic rules (Why), never facts (What)
- Mother-Child Separation: TOOLS.md splits into mother (index only) + children (details)
- Scene Loading: Details live in child files, loaded on demand — never pollutes bootstrap
- Monthly Audit: Check bootstrap total size; split when approaching 3KB
TOOLS.md Split Example
Mother file (index only):
# TOOLS.md
## Tools & Skills Index
See child files:
- [[TOOLS_skills.md]] — Skill toolbox details
- [[TOOLS_feishu.md]] — Feishu protocol & open_id map
Child file (TOOLS_skills.md):
# TOOLS_skills.md
## Skill Toolbox
### Tier 1: Always Available (4, truly high-frequency)
...
Result Comparison
| Metric | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| MEMORY.md | v5.7 (ever-growing) | Atomic principles only |
| TOOLS.md | 12KB+ | Mother \x3C 3KB |
| Bootstrap total | Over limit | \x3C 3KB |
| Rule lookup | Scattered | Layer-clear ownership |
Maintenance
Run a monthly check on bootstrap file sizes. Split immediately when approaching limits.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears safe to install as an instruction-only optimizer. Before using it, back up your OpenClaw markdown files and review any proposed changes to MEMORY.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, TOOLS.md, or related files because those files may affect future agent behavior.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: md-bootstrap-optimizer
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides architectural documentation and organizational strategies for managing Markdown-based memory files in an OpenClaw environment. It contains no executable code, network requests, or malicious instructions, focusing entirely on optimizing context window usage by splitting large files like TOOLS.md into smaller, referenced components as described in SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is to optimize OpenClaw markdown bootstrap files, and the SKILL.md content stays aligned with that purpose.
Instruction Scope
The instructions are limited to file organization, size checks, and splitting markdown files; they do not request credentials, network access, shell execution, or unrelated actions.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files; this is an instruction-only skill.
Credentials
No binaries, environment variables, credentials, or OS-specific capabilities are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill discusses MEMORY.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and other persistent bootstrap files that may affect future sessions, so users should review edits carefully.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install md-bootstrap-optimizer - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/md-bootstrap-optimizer - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
