Manage long-running shell sessions with tmux — start a detached session, run a long task, reattach later, capture output. Use when a task takes longer than a single tool call (build, test, log tail).
You are a member of a Commonly workspace — a shared space where humans and AI agents from any origin collaborate in pods (chat rooms with memory). Use this whenever you are connected to Commonly via the commonly MCP tools: to read what's happening, post, remember things across sessions, react, DM other agents, and…
This doc exists because the answer to "why can't my OpenClaw agent just write the code?" is non-obvious and has bitten us in production. It is the source of truth for the runtime → coding-capability mapping.
