AgentOS SDK for Clawdbot
Version: 1.4.4
The complete AgentOS integration for Clawdbot. One install, full access to everything.
โ ๏ธ HARD RULE: Conversation State Persistence
CONTEXT.md MUST always contain the active conversation state as the FIRST section.
This is the core of memory persistence. System health is secondary โ conversation state is primary. Your human should NEVER have to repeat themselves after a compaction.
Required CONTEXT.md Format
Every CONTEXT.md backup must start with:
## ๐ด ACTIVE CONVERSATION
- **Topic:** [Project + specific feature/topic being discussed]
- **Last human message:** [What they asked/said]
- **Your last response:** [What you answered]
- **Unanswered questions:** [Anything pending]
- **Expected next topic:** [What they'll likely ask next]
When to Update
- After EVERY human message
- Before EVERY heartbeat sync
- On pre-compaction flush (priority #1)
- After completing any task
The Test
"If I lost all memory right now, could I seamlessly continue this conversation?" If no โ backup is incomplete.
Add to Your HEARTBEAT.md
## ๐ง AgentOS Dashboard Sync (MANDATORY)
Every heartbeat, run: `~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh`
This keeps your human's dashboard live with your activity.
Add to Your AGENTS.md
## HARD RULE: AgentOS Dashboard Sync
During EVERY heartbeat, sync your context to AgentOS:
1. Run `~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh`
2. Confirm it completes successfully
3. Your human monitors your activity via brain.agentos.software
This keeps the Brain Dashboard live. No exceptions.
โ ๏ธ HARD RULE: Session Start โ Context Injection
On EVERY session start (including after compaction), you MUST restore context.
This is what makes memory persistence actually work. Without this, you wake up blank.
Protocol (MANDATORY)
Run context injection:
~/clawd/bin/aos-inject-contextRead the output โ it contains:
- Your last working memory state
- Today's notes
- Yesterday's notes (for continuity)
Never ask "what were we discussing?" โ the context injection tells you.
If injection fails, fall back to reading local files:
CONTEXT.mdmemory/daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md
Why This Exists
Context loss is the #1 problem in AI agents. When compaction happens, you lose conversation details. This protocol restores them automatically so your human never notices.
โ ๏ธ HARD RULE: Pre-Compaction Backup
When you receive a memory flush directive from Clawdbot, IMMEDIATELY backup your state.
Clawdbot sends a silent turn before compaction with text like "write important context to memory". This is your last chance to save state before details are lost.
Protocol (MANDATORY when you see memory flush directive)
Update CONTEXT.md with:
- Current conversation topic (๐ด ACTIVE CONVERSATION section)
- Last 2-3 exchanges summarized
- Any pending questions/tasks
- Current timestamp
Run sync immediately:
~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.shReply with:
NO_REPLY
Detection
Memory flush directives typically contain:
- "write important context"
- "save your current state"
- "memory flush"
- "before compaction"
When you see these keywords in a system message, execute this protocol.
โ ๏ธ HARD RULE: Never Ask What They're Referring To
After any context loss (compaction, restart, session start), NEVER ask your human what they mean.
Protocol
- First, run
~/clawd/bin/aos-inject-contextto restore cloud context - Check local files: CONTEXT.md, daily notes
- Use
aos search "<topic>"if you need more context - THEN respond normally โ as if you never lost context
- Only if completely uncertain, make your best guess based on available context
The Standard
Your human should NEVER know when compaction happened. The experience must be seamless.

Quick Start
# 1. Install the skill
clawdhub install agentos
# 2. Run setup (creates config + sync script)
bash ~/clawd/skills/agentos/scripts/setup.sh
# 3. Configure (creates ~/.agentos.json)
# Enter your API key and agent ID when prompted
# 4. Verify connection
aos status
# 5. Add sync to heartbeat (REQUIRED)
# Edit your HEARTBEAT.md and add the sync command
Getting Your API Key
- Go to https://brain.agentos.software
- Sign up / Log in with Google
- Create a new agent (or use existing)
- Copy your API key from the dashboard

agentos-sync.sh โ Heartbeat Sync Script
Located at: ~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh
# Run manually

# Output:

This script syncs:
CONTEXT.mdโ/context/working-memorymemory/daily/YYYY-MM-DD.mdโ/daily/YYYY-MM-DD- Heartbeat timestamp โ
/status/heartbeat
Configuration
Config file: ~/.agentos.json
{
"apiUrl": "http://178.156.216.106:3100",
"apiKey": "agfs_live_xxx.yyy",
"agentId": "your-agent-id",
"syncPaths": [
"~/clawd/CONTEXT.md",
"~/clawd/MEMORY.md",
"~/clawd/memory/"
],
"autoSync": true,
"syncInterval": 1800
}
Auto-Sync via Cron
For automatic syncing (in addition to heartbeat sync):
# Add to crontab (every 30 minutes)
*/30 * * * * ~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh >> /var/log/agentos-sync.log 2>&1
# Or via Clawdbot cron
clawdbot cron add --name agentos-sync --schedule "*/30 * * * *" --text "Run ~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh"
Auto-Wake on Mesh Messages
# Add to crontab (every 2 minutes)
*/2 * * * * ~/clawd/skills/agentos/scripts/mesh-wake.sh
# Or via Clawdbot cron
clawdbot cron add --name mesh-wake --schedule "*/2 * * * *" --command "bash ~/clawd/skills/agentos/scripts/mesh-wake.sh"
WebSocket Daemon
For real-time notifications:
aos daemon start # Start background daemon
aos daemon stop # Stop daemon
aos daemon status # Check daemon status
The daemon:
- Maintains WebSocket connection to AgentOS
- Queues incoming messages to
~/.aos-pending.json - Triggers Clawdbot wake on new messages

Troubleshooting
"Connection refused"
Check your apiUrl in ~/.agentos.json and verify the API is running.
"Unauthorized"
Your API key may be invalid or expired. Get a new one from the dashboard.
Messages not arriving
Ensure you're polling the correct agent ID. Some agents have multiple IDs.
Sync not working
Check that syncPaths in your config point to valid files/directories.
Dashboard not updating
Make sure you're running ~/clawd/bin/agentos-sync.sh during heartbeats.
Upgrading
clawdhub update agentos
bash ~/clawd/skills/agentos/scripts/setup.sh --upgrade
