SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up the first working agent in NanoClaw requires resolving channel identities, creating database rows, wiring messaging groups, and verifying end-to-end delivery — a multi-step process that is easy to get wrong manually. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided agent bootstrap: Walks the operator through picking a channel, resolving their user identity, and naming the agent persona. - DM wiring and welcome message: Creates the agent group, links the DM messaging group, and triggers a welcome DM through the normal delivery path to prove end-to-end delivery works. - Idempotent and safe to rerun: All operations are idempotent, with built-in troubleshooting for missing messaging groups, owner conflicts, and delivery failures. - Use Case: After installing a Discord or Telegram channel adapter, run this skill to stand up your first personal agent and receive a welcome DM confirming the full pipeline works. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to initialize your first NanoClaw agent on your configured channel and send you a welcome DM.

Frequently Asked Questions about init-first-agent

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up my first NanoClaw agent?▼

Run the init-first-agent skill after your channel credentials are configured and the service is running. It resolves your channel identity, creates the agent group, wires the DM messaging group, and sends a welcome DM to verify delivery.

Which channels does NanoClaw support for the first agent?▼

The skill supports Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Webex, Teams, Google Chat, Matrix, iMessage, and Resend. Channels like Telegram and WhatsApp are direct-addressable, while Discord and Slack require the user to DM the bot once to resolve the platform ID.

Why didn't the welcome DM arrive after setup?▼

Check outbound.db for stuck pending messages and grep logs/nanoclaw.log for ACL rejections or container crashes. First delivery can take about 60 seconds due to container cold-start before the agent processes the message.

Can I rerun the init-first-agent skill safely?▼

Yes, the skill is idempotent. Rerunning reuses existing user, messaging group, and agent group rows, though it writes a new welcome message each run. Pass a different display name to create a distinct agent folder.

What happens if an owner already exists in NanoClaw?▼

The owner grant is skipped silently when hasAnyOwner() returns true, but the script still creates the agent and wiring. Reassigning ownership requires a separate flow outside this skill.
