Root Cause

A minimal, well-documented example would lower contributor friction, improve skill author understanding, and make the coding-agent story easier to reason about and extend.

RAW_BUFFERClick to expand / collapse

Pattern to steal

Inspired by small, understandable coding-agent repos that make the moving parts obvious.

Problem

OpenClaw has powerful coding-agent workflows, but it can still be hard for users and contributors to understand the minimum viable architecture behind them.

Proposed feature

Create a minimal reference coding-agent implementation / example package that demonstrates:

  • basic planning
  • tool use
  • edit loop
  • verification loop
  • review/approval boundaries

Why this matters

A minimal, well-documented example would lower contributor friction, improve skill author understanding, and make the coding-agent story easier to reason about and extend.

Acceptance ideas

  • define the smallest useful reference flow
  • keep it intentionally minimal and educational
  • link it from coding-agent docs / examples
  • use it as a reference for regression and workflow discussions

extent analysis

TL;DR

Create a minimal reference coding-agent implementation to demonstrate the basic architecture and workflows, making it easier for users and contributors to understand and extend.

Guidance

  • Identify the key components of the coding-agent workflow, such as planning, tool use, edit loop, and verification loop, to determine the minimum viable architecture.
  • Develop a simple, well-documented example package that showcases these components in a clear and concise manner.
  • Ensure the example package is intentionally minimal and educational, focusing on illustrating the basic concepts rather than providing a fully-featured implementation.
  • Consider linking the example package from the coding-agent documentation and using it as a reference for regression and workflow discussions.

Notes

The goal of this effort is to reduce contributor friction and improve understanding of the coding-agent workflows, rather than creating a production-ready implementation.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by creating a minimal reference implementation, as this will provide a clear and educational example of the coding-agent architecture and workflows, making it easier for users and contributors to understand and extend.
