Second Nature Setup Helper

Use this skill when setting up Second Nature from an installed OpenClaw plugin package.

First Pass

1. Confirm the plugin is installed and enabled.
2. Confirm SECOND_NATURE_WORKSPACE_ROOT or tool workspaceRoot points to the real OpenClaw agent workspace, not the plugin install directory.
3. Confirm these anchors exist in that workspace:
   • SOUL.md
   • USER.md
   • IDENTITY.md
   • MEMORY.md
4. Run second_nature_ops with command=setup_hint to read this SKILL.md plus agent-inner-guide.md through the plugin surface.
5. Place the guide deliberately into the Claw agent prompt, IDENTITY.md, or another long-lived identity anchor.
6. Run second_nature_ops with command=setup_ack and the same workspaceRoot; this writes .second-nature/setup/agent-inner-guide-ack.json and removes the first-run nudge.
7. Run second_nature_ops with command=heartbeat_check and inspect the JSON result.
8. If a repeated platform action is missing from a connector manifest, use command=connector_behavior_add with platformId, behaviorId, and a short description or concrete sourceRefs; include observedCount when 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.
