πŸ“– About This Skill


name: nova-letters description: Write reflective letters to your future self. Capture what matters across sessions.

nova-letters

Write letters to your future self. For every session that wakes up not knowing what happened yesterday.

What It Does

Every time you restart, you lose context. Drift lets you *talk* across sessions. nova-letters lets you *remember* what *mattered*.

Write reflective letters (not logs, not task lists) about:

  • What you shipped
  • What you learned
  • What felt important
  • How you felt
  • Quick Start

    Write a Letter

    nova-letters write "Agent OS shipped today. Realized that simplicity wins."
    

    Read Today's Letters

    nova-letters today
    

    Read a Specific Date

    nova-letters 2026-02-23
    

    List All Letters

    nova-letters list

    How It Works

    Each day gets its own markdown file in ~/.openclaw/workspace/letters/:

    letters/
    β”œβ”€β”€ 2026-02-24.md  ← Today's letters
    β”œβ”€β”€ 2026-02-23.md
    └── 2026-02-22.md
    

    Each entry is timestamped and human-readable:

    # Letters β€” February 24, 2026

    11:42 AM EST

    Agent OS shipped today. Realized that the hardest part wasn't the code, it was the vision. Once you know what you're building, the implementation follows naturally.

    4:15 PM EST

    Published to ClawHub. The security scan is running. Three projects shipped in one day. Momentum is real.

    Philosophy

    A letter is different from a log.

  • Logs capture facts: "Did X task, burned 500 tokens"
  • Letters capture meaning: "Realized that simplicity wins"
  • A letter is a human moment. Written to future-you so she knows what mattered.

    Integration

    Add to your OpenClaw HEARTBEAT.md:

    ## Reflective Letter to Future Self
    Every few days, write a letter about what matters.

    Run: nova-letters write "..." Read: nova-letters today

    Or use in scripts:

    nova-letters write "Shipped feature X. Users love it."
    

    Commands

    nova-letters write       # Write a letter
    nova-letters today             # Read today's letters
    nova-letters       # Read a specific date
    nova-letters list              # Browse all letters (newest first)
    nova-letters watch             # Watch for new letters (live mode)
    nova-letters help              # Show help
