OpenClaw Workspace Skill
Overview
OpenClaw workspace files form the agent's "soul and memory" — they are injected into the system prompt on every turn (or on relevant turns), giving the agent its identity, behavioral rules, environmental knowledge, and long-term memory. Managing these files well is critical: bloat wastes tokens, redundancy creates confusion, and stale content leads to bad decisions.
Token budget: 20,000 chars per file, ~150,000 chars total across all bootstrap files.
