  • 已经看过开始使用页,但更想按任务推进
  • 希望把安装、技能、自动化、多 Agent 和调优收成一条练习路线
  • 不想继续靠零散页面拼自己的学习路径

When to use this page

Use this when you want a phased, task-based practice map instead of scattered setup steps.

Phase 1: Beginner — smallest loop

#Task
1Check Node.js ≥ 22 (prefer 24). node -v
2Install and verify openclaw --version / openclaw --help
3Run openclaw onboard --install-daemon (model, API key, platform, permissions)
4Have a first conversation; confirm basic replies
5Inspect workspace, config, and installed skills

Standard commands:

node --version
openclaw --version
openclaw onboard --install-daemon
openclaw gateway status
openclaw dashboard
openclaw config list
openclaw skills list
openclaw security audit --deep

Phase 2: Intermediate — skills and automation

#Task
6Install and test at least 3 skills with real tasks
7Connect 1–2 channels you actually use
8Create 2 scheduled tasks (daily digest, reminders)
9Set up memory (name, language, style) so the agent understands you

Example skill installs:

openclaw skills install @clawhub/web-search
openclaw skills install @clawhub/summarize
openclaw skills install @clawhub/browser

Phase 3: Advanced — custom skill, multi-agent, tuning

#Task
10Build a minimal custom skill (weather, todo, price checker)
11Configure 2+ Agents with separate models, skills, and permissions
12Enable Docker sandbox and run a deeper security audit
13Do one browser automation task with a clear goal
14Integrate 2 third-party tools (e.g. GitHub, Obsidian)
15Start performance and cost tuning; review usage and logs

Cost and performance commands:

openclaw config set cache.enabled true
openclaw config set cache.ttl 3600
openclaw config set ai.maxConcurrentRequests 3
openclaw config set ai.timeout 30000
openclaw config set ai.dailyLimit 1000
openclaw config set ai.monthlyBudget 50
openclaw stats usage
openclaw stats cost
openclaw logs

What to avoid

Don't rush into multi-agent, browser automation, and heavy integrations before Phases 1 and 2 are stable.

No. Finish Phase 1 first. Add Phase 2 and 3 when the basics are stable.

Start is a minimal path. This page is a structured practice map for systematic learning.
