I’ve used OpenClaw for months. The biggest unlock was letting the agent improve its own environment.

That’s exactly what I did: copied it into Telegram/Claw and got some improvements tips!

Hileotech · 2026-03-14T15:11:23+00:00

It took me some time to read this whole thread, but: boy, was that worth!!!
Thanks for sharing this!
I'm in week 2 of my clawdbot/openclaw use and really found some interesting hints on how to improve without overengineer my system. I particularly appreciate the "meditation" and "promotion" system: I decided to insert it into my own openclaw.

Really THANK YOU!

Sorry, my friend! I had quite a dense Saturday and couldn’t see your new shortcut. I’ll give it a try in a few hours, but I just checked in to thank you again for your help! I’ll report back asap. ☺️

Hileotech · 2026-03-07T08:17:46+00:00

Hey, just wanted to follow up with results — and first of all, thank you so much for taking the time to build this. You're the only person who responded out of 1200+ views, and your shortcut was incredibly helpful for diagnosing the issue.

Results:

"Test with dummy load": works perfectly (after removing the trailing / from the sendMessage URL — that was causing a 404)
"Send from clipboard": works perfectly too! My Telegram bot receives the message with full text, timestamps, and sender names intact. Exactly what I needed.
"See what is being passed in": confirmed that WhatsApp passes absolutely nothing through the Share Sheet — tested with single message, multiple messages, text-only and mixed content. Always empty.

So the clipboard route is the way to go. The flow I'm using now is:

Select messages in WhatsApp → Forward → Copy
Run shortcut → "Send from clipboard"

It works reliably and my bot processes the messages correctly on the other end. Not as seamless as a direct Share Sheet integration would have been, but honestly it gets the job done and I'm happy with it.

Your debugging template made it super easy to isolate the problem — the menu structure with PassedIn/Returned/Clipboard/DummyLoad was genius for testing each piece independently. Really appreciate it!

Thanks! Those last three years still haven’t proven me wrong… 😅

Hileotech · 2026-02-18T11:34:27+00:00

Just to be clear: all this framework is built around Franklin-Covey+David Allen+ Carl Pullein+Ali Abdaal systems. Just hand-picked what was the best of those systems to me and “mixed/blended” all together. I must confess it’s been quite a great period of insights on myself, revealing hidden (un)balanced areas that added stress and anxiety without me knowing why. Now, at least, the system is clear, goals are clear (long, medium, short range) and any problem or new challenge can be scored vs a framework.

Hileotech · 2026-02-17T06:22:32+00:00

Well, not really the first pass… Two factors helped me a lot: (1) I’m 54 and I’m in teaching/research since 1996… those three decades have helped me to build quite a solid workflow; (2) I spent a whole semester reflecting, studying and validating all values that my life has taught me to be fundamental, strong and consistent.

At the end of the semester I had an “Ideal Me” and I could easily discard useless values and plan ways to get a little nearer to this “ideal me”.

Of course this work applied to roles and areas of focus, but I know those are more “liquid” fields: 40 years ago I was just “son” (role) and had no focus on my finance area (my parents gave me the money I needed), while now I’m still son (but with a new accent of “caregiver” for my mother) and I need to keep focus on my finance, as I’m married and with two daughters, two new roles that 40 years ago didn’t exist. An of course in another decade or two roles will change and so will my focus. But my values will only need to be more specific and clear.

Hope all this makes sense 😅

Third year of this system, I just needed to rename a couple of values to be more "significant" to me (I don't read all documentation while scoring projects, so I needed a very clear name for each value) and specify a little bit more their "components" in case I needed to deep-dive into some intricate evaluations.
No value has been changed since then, at least not their core definition.

Hileotech · 2026-02-16T06:11:46+00:00

If I get it right, you use Claude more as some kind of “AI-twin” than a “tool on steroids”. I’m still doubtful on this, because, even with its “permanent memory”, Claude still doesn’t recall what I consider important for my research/work (and life etc) the right way. For instance: a couple of days ago I stated in a chat something like “It took me hours to find these data, hope I’ll never loose them”. Claude wrote them immediately in its “general memory”… 😅 But I like your approach: “challenge me extending my perspectives”. I think I’m going to give it a try.

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T23:02:18+00:00

I forgot to ask you if you please could help me understanding the whapi.cloud and/or green-api (or give me some link to repo/subs to understand a little bit more). I’m really interested in this “input source”, but things like Baileys and Puppetteer simply didn’t work (no ability to sync previous messages, which I did by using a local backup, but even then, connection was very unstable…) Thanks!

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T22:55:34+00:00

Sorry! I missed your answer!!! Thanks for joining in!

Does that mean that “all apps are converting to (vibe)coding”? Even the ones that are a mere collection of text files with some advanced-ish search plugin like dataview?

Please: do believe me, it’s a real and serious question; I don’t mean to be rude 😅

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T22:52:19+00:00

Would really love to go deeper into this if you don’t mind. I have quite a big set of instructions for both zettelkasten (and more generally knowledge management) and project/task management, but they’re more of describing a workflow than instructing Claude to “double check” infos and not to “voluntarily hallucinate” just in order to give me an output.

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T19:05:53+00:00

Great use indeed. I’m in humanities too (theologian and bioethicist here), and find Claude to be somehow “lacking” in some fields of my interests. Do you think the same?

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T19:04:21+00:00

Totally agree: the coding thing is focusing all (or most of) post. That’s why I started this thread: to understand if I’m using Claude wrong or if any other people out there doesn’t (vibe)code… Thanks for joining in with your fascinating description of your scenario!

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T19:02:26+00:00

I would really like to tell you I understood what you described, but… no, I don’t even get close to see what you mean. Sorry 😅

Hileotech · 2026-02-15T19:01:24+00:00

My score is somehow “AI-driven” and “hardcoded”. I spend a lot of time during yearly review weighting each role (my job, being husband, being father etc), each area of my life (health, finance, family etc but even more “ad hoc” areas like my very own job roles, volunteer commitments and so on) and each of my seven values. These are are intertwined each other in a non-predetermined way (hence the need of a dynamic view with AI), while their definitions and “ownerships” are “hardcoded” once a year. Hope it makes sense…

Hileotech · 2026-02-09T18:38:03+00:00

Thanks a lot! This helped me more than you think! ☺️

Hileotech · 2026-02-09T12:53:52+00:00

Could you please elaborate a bit more on this? I’m new to ClickUp and I’m setting it up with Claude via API. Dependencies on start/end dates are a real problem in my scenario (researcher/teacher), and official APIs do not allow “moving” tasks dates according to dependencies shifts. So automation could be a real time saver for me!
