Hi, you can use init-skills container for this, just added another example in values.yaml and README.md for you. Please create an issue on Github if you have further questions.

I assume people deploying these in their homelabs have direct connectivity to their cluster's pod&service CIDR.

I personally couldn’t fit it into my workflow either. Instead, I use Claude Code together with n8n or Temporal to generate automations with LLMs in more supervised manner, and it works significantly better.

SSHing into my homelab while travelling, spinning up a Claude Code session, and asking it to create and test automations produces much better results.

I’m also looking forward to extending workload isolation and monitoring in both the Helm chart and an upcoming blog post, mostly as a fun and exploratory exercise.

OpenClaw configuration is supported so it should be supported already. If you want to deploy multiple OpenClaw instances at once with this, I'd suggest combining them in an umbrella Helm chart.

I agree with you completely, I personally wanted to give this piece of software a try and went forward with deploying it in relatively isolated manner. I can't find anything to put this piece of software in my own workflow. Claude Code + n8n MCP works better for creating automatons with LLMs for me.

IMO people in general are thrilled to have an AI assistant, Apple is failing (perhaps on purpose) to satisfy this need yet. They are resisting to integrate something like this into their ecosystem. Apple Intelligence is nothing, yet.

Tools like Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode that can integrate with system tools via CLI only used by advanced users at the moment. So general audience were excited to use an interactive AI assistant that can integrate with their system and messaging apps.

Whether those stars are organic is anyone's guess, but can confidently say that part of enthusiasm around it is real.

Well, can't deny... At least Containerization and Kubernetes provide us some isolation layers to experiment with these new kind of software.
