About ClawRecipes

ClawRecipes is a specialized plugin for OpenClaw designed to scaffold and manage multi-agent teams using a file-first workflow. Instead of manually configuring individual agents, users use Markdown-based 'recipes' to deploy complete teams (such as development, product, or marketing teams) with pre-defined roles, shared context, and agile workflows. It features 'The Pantry' for shared file-based context, 'The Timer' for automated cron-based loops, and 'The Pass' for a structured agile process (Backlog to Done). This approach ensures that agent interactions are repeatable, reviewable in Git, and highly organized.

How to Use

First, install the plugin via the terminal using 'openclaw plugins install @jiggai/recipes' and restart the gateway. Then, use the CLI to scaffold a team by running a command like 'openclaw recipes scaffold-team development-team'. You can also browse the Marketplace for pre-built team recipes or individual agents and apply their configurations directly through the command line.

Key Features

  • Deterministic Scaffolding: Deploy complete teams with roles, templates, and conventions from Markdown blueprints.
  • Shared File-based Context: 'The Pantry' keeps notes, tickets, and artifacts in a workspace readable by Git.
  • Automated Cron Workflows: 'The Timer' handles recurring check-ins, PR watchers, and daily triage automatically.
  • Agile Process Management: Built-in lanes for Backlog, In-Progress, Testing, and Done for clear handoffs.
  • Recipe Marketplace: Access to pre-configured teams for development, research, marketing, and more.

Use Cases

  • Scaffolding a full engineering team with Lead, Dev, DevOps, and QA roles.
  • Creating a research pipeline that produces sourced briefs and summaries.
  • Automating social media management with platform-specific specialist agents.
  • Setting up a law firm or clinic operation team to handle intake and documentation.
