From zero coverage to "actually tested" in minutes
Point it at a file, function, or module and get useful tests back. This is a strong starter recipe because it works on a small input, gives you code you can review immediately, and teaches you how to steer OpenClaw with examples.
Write tests for the code I'm about to share. Use the same testing framework and style as my existing tests (I'll share an example if I have one). Cover: (1) happy path for each public function/method, (2) edge cases — null inputs, empty collections, boundary values, type mismatches, (3) error paths — what happens when things fail, (4) mocks/stubs for external dependencies. Name tests descriptively so failures are self-documenting. If I don't specify a framework, ask me what I'm using. Code to test: [paste your code here] Existing test example (optional): [paste an existing test file for style matching]
Hand your Claw a function, module, or file and it generates tests that
actually exercise the code — not just happy-path assertions. It reads your
existing test patterns (framework, style, naming conventions) and matches
them.
Meaningful commit messages from your diff, every time
Your Claw reads the staged diff and writes a commit message that actually describes what changed and why — in your team's format. Easy win, low setup, and a good starter recipe for day-to-day use.
New repo? Running in minutes, not days
Point your Claw at an unfamiliar repo and it figures out how to get it running. Excellent starter recipe because it turns a messy pile of config files into a concrete setup plan you can follow.

Keep your content off the AI slop list
Have your Claw periodically check the AI Slop Wiki and build a living filter of patterns to avoid. Every piece of content your Claw creates runs through this filter first, so you never publish anything that reads like generic AI-generated filler.
