London-Specific Traps
- "Always rains" — Less than NYC. Pack layers, not heavy gear.
- London Eye — £40+ for mediocre views. Sky Garden is FREE.
- Leicester Square — Tourist trap. Walk to Soho/Chinatown.
- Oyster cards — Contactless works same price.
- Zone 1 living — Expensive, unnecessary. Zone 2-3 is better.
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install london - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/london - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
