Relic Skill

Relic is a local-first OpenClaw skill package for preserving a person's durable self-model.

It is packaged for ClawHub/OpenClaw as a skill. The skill is the main install surface. Optional bundled hooks add passive capture behavior, giving the full plugin-like experience without putting private state inside the package.

What ships in the package

• SKILL.md — skill entrypoint and operating guidance
• scripts/ — deterministic local commands for init, capture, distill, drift, proposal, apply, and export
• references/ — package docs for setup, data model, examples, and evolution policy
• hooks/openclaw/ — optional OpenClaw hook metadata and handlers for passive capture
• _meta.json and .clawhub/origin.json — package metadata and install provenance

Private vault boundary

Relic keeps mutable user state outside the package.

Default vault path:

~/.openclaw/workspace/projects/relic/vault/

Override it with:

export RELIC_VAULT_PATH="/absolute/path/to/your/relic-vault"

Typical vault contents:

vault/
├── inbox.ndjson
├── facets.json
├── self-model.md
├── voice.md
├── goals.md
├── relationships.md
├── evolution/
├── snapshots/
└── exports/

Quick start

1. Install the skill

Preferred ClawHub/OpenClaw workflow:

clawhub install relic

Manual local layout:

cp -R relic ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/relic

2. Verify the skill

openclaw skills info relic
openclaw skills check

3. Initialize the vault

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/relic/scripts/init_relic.py

4. Capture and distill

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/relic/scripts/capture_note.py "I value durable systems" --type value
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/relic/scripts/distill_facets.py
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/relic/scripts/render_export.py

Optional OpenClaw hook

Relic includes a bundled optional hook named relic-capture.

It fires on agent:stop, extracts likely durable user signals from the transcript, and appends them to the configured vault.

Verify and enable it with:

openclaw hooks info relic-capture
openclaw hooks check
openclaw hooks enable relic-capture

If you just installed or moved the package or hook, start a fresh OpenClaw session or restart the gateway before verifying discovery.

Operating rules

1. Keep package files immutable; only vault files are mutable runtime state.
2. Append observations before distillation.
3. Route major identity changes through proposals.
4. Preserve contradictions instead of over-compressing them.
5. Keep destructive updates auditable.

Commands

Verification checklist

• openclaw skills info relic resolves the installed skill.
• openclaw skills check reports the skill as ready.
• openclaw hooks info relic-capture resolves the bundled hook.
• openclaw hooks check succeeds once the hook is installed/enabled.
• A real OpenClaw session appends observations to inbox.ndjson.
• Distill and export write only into the configured vault path.
