openclaw-auto-continue

Reusable OpenClaw skill for /auto-continue (/ac) session-level auto-followup.

What this repo contains

• openclaw-auto-continue/SKILL.md — the agent-facing skill instructions
• openclaw-auto-continue.skill — packaged skill artifact

For humans: how to use on another computer

Option 1: clone the repo

git clone https://gitea.cowbay.org/openclaw/openclaw-auto-continue.git
cd openclaw-auto-continue

Then copy the skill folder into the target machine's OpenClaw skills directory:

mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills
cp -R openclaw-auto-continue ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/

Option 2: use the packaged .skill file

If your target OpenClaw environment already has a skill import/install flow, use:

• openclaw-auto-continue.skill

On the target OpenClaw chat/session

Installing the skill does not automatically enable auto-continue for every chat. You still need to turn it on in the specific chat/session where you want it active:

/ac on

Check status:

/ac status

Turn it off:

/ac off

What changes after /ac on

When enabled, the current session uses followup-style continuation behavior:

• queueMode = "followup"
• queueDebounceMs = 0
• queueCap = 1
• queueDrop = "summarize"

Practical effect:

• the agent is more likely to continue into the next low-risk step
• the agent is less likely to stop after every intermediate update
• this is good for multi-step execution in the same chat

Important boundary

This is session-scoped, not global. If you want it active in a different chat, enable it in that chat too.

It also does not bypass:

• approvals
• safety checks
• destructive action confirmation
• user decision points

For agents

If an OpenClaw agent is deciding how to use this repo:

1. Read openclaw-auto-continue/SKILL.md
2. Follow the trigger conditions and command usage there
3. Use /ac on, /ac off, and /ac status in the relevant chat/session

In short:

• README.md is the human/operator guide
• openclaw-auto-continue/SKILL.md is the agent-facing guide
