Research Team Recipe

A web-enabled research pipeline with explicit source capture and summarization.

Files

  • Creates a shared team workspace under ~/.openclaw/workspace-<teamId>/ (example: ~/.openclaw/workspace-research-team-team/).
  • Creates per-role directories under roles/<role>/ for: SOUL.md, AGENTS.md, TOOLS.md, STATUS.md, NOTES.md.
  • Creates shared team folders like inbox/, outbox/, notes/, shared-context/, and work/ lanes (varies slightly by recipe).

Tooling

  • Tool policies are defined per role in the recipe frontmatter (agents[].tools).
  • Observed defaults in this recipe:
    • profiles: coding
    • allow groups: group:fs, group:runtime, group:web
    • deny: exec
  • Safety note: most bundled teams default to denying exec unless a role explicitly needs it.
