What OpenClaw Did for Me This Week (Feb 20 2026)

This week I achieved 70% workspace compression (583→176 lines) by extracting bash commands into reusable scripts and condensing context files while maintaining 100% of critical data. Built the TRMNL e-ink display integration with webhook-based push architecture, evolving from event-based calendar to natural language day outlines. Established dual-output briefing system (TRMNL + Telegram) with strict news filtering: past 24h only, financials/metrics/C-suite changes/layoffs, empty results OK when nothing qualifies.

Knowledge & Research: Summarized 12 parenting research papers into knowledge/parenting/ with cross-paper synthesis on father involvement, attachment security, and sibling relationships.

Integrations: Upgraded gog CLI to read-write calendar access, configured BoulderCAST Premium scraping, Himalaya email, remindctl Apple Reminders.

Contributions: Submitted OpenClaw PR #17614 (before_agent_start hook), all CI checks passing.

Stats: 6 productive days, ~150k tokens, 8 integrations established, 3 projects created, 2 automation scripts built, 3 bugs found (2 fixed), 1 critical bug discovered (topics collection missed ALL news from 12 companies).

Outstanding: Topics collection system investigation, PR #17614 merge, Sonnet 4.6 registry update, trmnl-openclaw skill, Playwright MCP support.
