Agent Control

Translate short chat commands into OpenClaw CLI agent operations.

Command grammar

Accept these commands (case-insensitive, trim extra spaces):

  • agent list
  • agent create <name> [workspace=<path>] [model=<id>]
  • agent switch <name> [channel=<channel[:accountId]>]
  • agent bind <name> <channel[:accountId]>
  • agent unbind <name> <channel[:accountId]>
  • agent delete <name>
  • agent identity <name> [display="..."] [emoji=🗡️] [avatar=<path>]

If input is ambiguous, ask one focused question.

Execution mapping

Run these exact command patterns:

  • List:
    • openclaw agents list
  • Create:
    • openclaw agents add <name> --workspace <path> --model <id>
    • Omit optional flags when missing.
    • Default workspace when omitted: ~/clawd/agents/<name>.
  • Switch (route this channel/account to an agent):
    • openclaw agents bind --agent <name> --bind <channel[:accountId]>
    • If channel is omitted, infer from current surface when possible (e.g. webchat).
  • Bind / unbind:
    • openclaw agents bind --agent <name> --bind <binding>
    • openclaw agents unbind --agent <name> --bind <binding>
  • Delete:
    • Require explicit confirmation in the same turn for destructive action.
    • Then run: openclaw agents delete <name>
  • Identity:
    • openclaw agents set-identity --agent <name> [--name <display>] [--emoji <emoji>] [--avatar <path>]

Response style

After each operation, return:

  1. A one-line result (success/failure)
  2. The next useful command for the user

Keep it brief and practical.

Safety rules

  • Treat agent delete as destructive: confirm before running.
  • Never run unrelated shell commands.
  • If a command fails, show the error and one concrete fix.

scripts/

Use scripts/example.py as a deterministic helper wrapper for command parsing/execution when needed.
