Get started

Try it on last week first

See what it would have done before it does anything.

  1. OpenClaw. Not installed yet? The installer sets it up with you, model included.
  2. Connect. The installer finds your accounts and keys, and tests each source.
  3. Your voice. It learns how you write from your sent messages. You check it first.
  4. Preview. Your agent reviews the last 7 days and shows the cards it would have sent.
  5. Turn it on. Until then, nothing is sent or done in your accounts.
# install, connect your sources, preview, turn on
git clone https://github.com/Salesflare/TheMachine.git \
  ~/.openclaw/workspace/tools/personal-assistant
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/tools/personal-assistant
./install.sh

# add a source, or a second account, later
# (or in the dashboard: Connections, + Add)
assistant connect slack
# something off? every problem comes with its fix
