CertainLogic Onboarding Wizard
Your first step with OpenClaw — automated setup guidance, not automation without consent.
v2.0.0
Built and dogfooded by CertainLogicAI — We want new users to succeed.
What It Actually Does
A guided onboarding system that:
- Auto-detects your environment — checks what's installed, what's missing
- Asks about your goals — developer, business, research, productivity
- Scans for recommended skills — checks ClawHub for availability
- Generates a personalized setup guide — markdown report with exact commands
It does NOT install anything. It just builds your todo list.
What It Does NOT Do
| Claimed Feature | Reality |
|---|---|
| Auto-installs skills without asking | NO — Generates install commands. You run them when ready. |
| Scans your filesystem for secrets | NO — Only checks ~/.openclaw/skills/ and basic config. |
| Guarantees everything works | NO — Recommendations based on our testing. You verify. |
| Replaces reading SKILL.md files | NO — Encourages reading docs before installing. |
| Auto-configures API keys | NO — Tells you what's needed. You handle credentials. |

Honest Limitations
| Limitation | Truth |
|---|---|
| Recommendations are opinions | Based on our testing. Your needs may differ. |
| Auto-detection is heuristic | Checks common paths. May miss custom installs. |
| Availability checks are best-effort | ClawHub API may lag. Skill might exist even if check fails. |
| Does not verify skill quality post-install | Install ≠ works. Test everything. |
| macOS-centric recommendations | PA Pack assumes macOS/Things 3. Linux users need alternatives. |
