Hivemind Goals (openclaw)

OpenClaw exposes purpose-built tools for goals + KPIs. Use them directly — do NOT try to write files via the host filesystem.

Tools

• hivemind_goal_add({ text }) — create a new goal. Returns goal_id (UUID). Status starts at opened.
• hivemind_kpi_add({ goal_id, kpi_id, target, unit, name? }) — add a KPI to an existing goal. Only call when the user explicitly asks for KPIs; do NOT auto-generate.
• hivemind_search({ query }) — search Hivemind shared memory (summaries + sessions). Use this when the user asks "what's already there" before creating a duplicate.
• hivemind_read({ path }) — read the full content of a specific Hivemind path.
• hivemind_index({}) — list everything in memory.

Workflow when the user expresses a goal

1. (Optional) hivemind_search first to surface any existing related goal.
2. hivemind_goal_add({ text: "<short description>" }) — capture the returned goal_id.
3. ONLY if the user asks for KPIs: hivemind_kpi_add once per KPI with goal_id + kpi_id (short slug like k-prs) + target (positive int) + unit.
4. Confirm to the user with the goal_id and that the goal is team-visible.

What NOT to do

• Do NOT write files anywhere under ~/.deeplake/memory/. OpenClaw's runtime does not route filesystem writes to the Deeplake tables — only the hivemind_* tools above do.
• Do NOT call hivemind_kpi_add unsolicited. Wait for the user to ask.
• Do NOT use hivemind_search to create anything — it's read-only.
