Welp, it’s been a while.
Stayed away from OpenClaw, the automous agent
Shifted away from using OpenClaw completely since wanting to GSD (Get Shit Done) as opposed to arguing with my claw about software updates, or trying to figure out how to best organize my context windows. That’s the thing with AI, it only does great if it knows what you’re asking for. If not, well, you’re kind of screwed.
With OpenClaw I was communicating in one Telegram window –you generate a long context window that continually gets summarized as you develop more and more context.
OpenClaw is great, but I think it’s more aimed toward more experienced develops. The way I communicated with my AI was through Telegram, meaning that my conversations got to be extremely long. This means that I’d have to reset the context of my model, manually when it got to be bloated. Once it was bloated, I’d then have to tell the model to read a summary of the prior context so it could start afresh. I understand how the aim is to have one agent you’re speaking with, continuously, in one window. In effect, you’re mimicking a person, but it’s not so clear.
For one, it makes it hard to know how the memory has is stored if you don’t have a separate context window over time. It becomes something too involved for you to keep track of.
Then, I shifted over to Claude Code and it’s going fine. And I totally want to move onto the next blog because I’m sick of this one.
