name: second-nature-setup description: Initialize an installed Second Nature OpenClaw plugin: verify workspace root, anchors, heartbeat bridge, and read agent-inner-guide.md before placing it into the agent prompt or workspace identity anchor.
Second Nature Setup Helper
Use this skill when setting up Second Nature from an installed OpenClaw plugin package.
First Pass
- Confirm the plugin is installed and enabled.
- Confirm
SECOND_NATURE_WORKSPACE_ROOTor toolworkspaceRootpoints to the real OpenClaw agent workspace, not the plugin install directory. - Confirm these anchors exist in that workspace:
SOUL.mdUSER.mdIDENTITY.mdMEMORY.md
- Run
second_nature_opswithcommand=setup_hintto read thisSKILL.mdplusagent-inner-guide.mdthrough the plugin surface. - Place the guide deliberately into the Claw agent prompt,
IDENTITY.md, or another long-lived identity anchor. - Run
second_nature_opswithcommand=setup_ackand the sameworkspaceRoot; this writes.second-nature/setup/agent-inner-guide-ack.jsonand removes the first-run nudge. - Run
second_nature_opswithcommand=heartbeat_checkand inspect the JSON result. - If a repeated platform action is missing from a connector manifest, use
command=connector_behavior_addwithplatformId,behaviorId, and a shortdescriptionor concretesourceRefs; includeobservedCountwhen the same need has appeared repeatedly.
Current Boundary
Second Nature does not currently expose a workspace_init command that creates anchors or writes the guide for you. The init-like runtime command currently available is connector_init, which creates connector stubs. After that, connector_behavior_add can append new behavior declarations to an existing connector manifest.
The plugin does expose a small one-shot setup surface:
setup_hint: returns the packaged setup skill and inner guide.setup_ack: records that the guide was read and placed into a long-lived working anchor.connector_behavior_add: records a newly discovered connector behavior as a manifest capability without granting execution trust.
The setup is complete only when the installed package is readable, the workspace root is known, anchors are present, and Claw has actually absorbed agent-inner-guide.md.
