# Daily Greeting Skill

## Features

- 🎯 **Dual trigger modes**: Supports both BOOT.md (on startup) and cron (scheduled)
- 📊 **State persistence**: Records execution status, prevents duplicate runs
- 🔌 **Multi-platform**: Supports Discord, Feishu, etc.
- ⏰ **Working days filter**: Only triggers on weekdays (configurable)
- 🔄 **Resettable**: Supports manual reset
- 🛡️ **Safe repetition prevention**: Both BOOT.md and cron can coexist - state check prevents duplicate greetings

## Installation

1. Clone or copy skill to `~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/`
2. Ensure script is executable: `chmod +x scripts/greeting.sh`

## Usage

### Manual Execution

```bash
bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run
```

### Auto-trigger

Choose one or both triggering methods based on your usage:

#### Method 1: BOOT.md (triggers on Gateway startup)

Add to workspace `BOOT.md`:

```markdown
# BOOT.md

<!-- daily-greeting:start -->
Please execute daily greeting:
```
bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run
```

After execution, reply ONLY: `NO_REPLY`.
<!-- daily-greeting:end -->
```

#### Method 2: OpenClaw Cron (triggers on schedule)

```bash
openclaw cron add \
  --name "daily-greeting" \
  --cron "0 9 * * 1-5" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh run" \
  --wake now
```

Default: 9am on weekdays (Mon-Fri)

Both methods work together safely - state check prevents duplicate greetings.

## Configuration

Configure in `config.json`:

```json
{
  "enabled": true,
  "workingDaysOnly": true,
  "delayMs": 3000,
  "excludeAgents": ["main"],
  "triggerMessage": "Please send a daily greeting to your bound channel. Requirements: 1) Compose the greeting in the user's preferred language (infer from channel history and user context); 2) Include relevant status information based on your agent role and ongoing tasks with the user (e.g., if you're a todo agent, summarize progress and today's priorities; if you're a diary agent, mention ongoing projects); 3) Use message tool to send to your bound channel; 4) End conversation after sending"
}
```

## Greeting Content

Each agent organizes their own greeting message based on their persona and sends it to their bound channel.

## Commands

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `bash scripts/greeting.sh run` | Execute greeting manually |
| `bash scripts/greeting.sh status` | View execution status |
| `bash scripts/greeting.sh reset` | Reset state (allows re-trigger) |
| `bash scripts/greeting.sh install` | Record BOOT.md path (for uninstall) |
| `bash scripts/greeting.sh uninstall` | Remove skill and clean BOOT.md |

## State File

State is stored in `data/state.json`:

```json
{
  "lastRun": "2026-04-03T10:40:00Z",
  "agents": {
    "diary": "completed"
  }
}
```

## Uninstall

```bash
bash ~/.openclaw/skills/daily-greeting/scripts/greeting.sh uninstall
```

This will:
1. Read the recorded BOOT.md path from `data/install.json`
2. Remove **only** the marked daily-greeting section
3. Remove the OpenClaw cron job
4. Delete the skill directory
