Set OpenClaw to run a nightly scan of Hacker News and Twitter for topics of interest, summarising the stories and the conversations around them. It also reads their personal email and reminds them of anything they need to take care of that day, such as things for the kids or bills.
The digest has become a nice daily habit. The user is candid that OpenClaw still feels half-baked, with updates that sometimes break their setup, but it does a few genuinely useful things.
