You Could've Invented OpenClaw

See more of my writing here.

In this post, I'll start from scratch and build up to OpenClaw's architecture step by step, showing how you could have invented it yourself from first principles, using nothing but a messaging API, an LLM, and the desire to make AI actually useful outside the chat window.

End goal: understand how persistent AI assistants work, so you can build your own (or become an OpenClaw power user).

First, let's establish the problem

When you use ChatGPT or Claude in a browser, there are several limitations:

One-liner to retrieve a list of all AWS products from aws.amazon.com/products sorted by product category (requires jq). Worked as of 2022-01-03. Page format tends to change a lot...
curl --silent --compressed \
'https://aws.amazon.com/api/dirs/items/search?item.directoryId=aws-products&sort_by=item.additionalFields.productCategory&sort_order=asc&size=500&item.locale=en_US' \
| jq -r '.items[].item | .additionalFields.productCategory + " | " + .additionalFields.productName' \
| sort
