Use chirpier-skills

chirpier-skills is the recommended way to make Chirpier feel native inside OpenClaw.

It gives OpenClaw an opinionated workflow for:

  • canonical event names
  • analytics comparisons
  • valid policy patterns
  • destination setup and testing
  • alert triage and delivery inspection
  • public dashboard page handoff

Install the skills

# Install all skills npx skills @chirpier/chirpier-skills # Or install individual skills npx skills @chirpier/chirpier-skills/chirpier npx skills @chirpier/chirpier-skills/chirpier-monitoring npx skills @chirpier/chirpier-skills/chirpier-destinations npx skills @chirpier/chirpier-skills/chirpier-alert-triage
  1. export CHIRPIER_API_KEY
  2. start with the chirpier skill
  3. emit events first and confirm the event definition appears
  4. use the matching Chirpier SDK for the runtime when possible
  5. run analytics comparisons when the task is periodic comparison rather than thresholding
  6. create policies and destinations when threshold-based alerting matters
  7. direct humans to the public dashboard page when they need to inspect trends

Which skill to use

  • chirpier: default starting point for logging, reading event definitions, running first-pass analytics comparisons, and creating first policies
  • chirpier-monitoring: best for recurring comparisons, dashboards, public dashboard pages, market monitoring, sentiment workflows, tool failures, and latency tracking
  • chirpier-destinations: focused on Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, and generic destination setup
  • chirpier-alert-triage: focused on reading active alerts, checking deliveries, acknowledging, resolving, and archiving

What to tell OpenClaw

These are good prompts or task instructions for an OpenClaw workflow that has chirpier-skills available:

  • “Send OpenClaw task duration and error events to Chirpier”
  • “Compare the last hour of OpenClaw tool errors with the previous hour using Chirpier analytics”
  • “Create a policy for OpenClaw tool failures in the last hour”
  • “Set up a Slack destination for Chirpier alerts”
  • “Show me the public dashboard page for OpenClaw task latency trends”

Why this helps

Without skills, each OpenClaw workflow may invent its own event names and policy patterns.

With chirpier-skills, OpenClaw gets consistent guidance:

  • event names are the schema
  • the stable event identity is agent + event
  • use canonical OpenClaw events first
  • do not encode time windows into event names
  • use rollups and policies for hourly or daily logic
  • use analytics previous windows for explicit comparison queries
  • treat meta as inspection context in v1

The skills also now align with the Chirpier SDKs for:

  • event lookup by stable agent + event
  • analytics queries
  • policy creation
  • destination tests returning a synthetic test alert_id

Contract source of truth

chirpier-skills should follow the contract defined in the docs site.

  • use docs as the normative source for event identity, periods, analytics window conventions, destination terminology, public dashboard pages, and delivery-history kinds
  • treat chirpier-skills as the operational layer OpenClaw follows when applying that contract

For testing, start with guided mode first:

  1. explicitly tell OpenClaw to use chirpier-skills
  2. verify it emits canonical event names and valid policies
  3. then repeat in natural mode and confirm it still follows the same contract
