NanoClaw Channels

Pattern: Pair one channel during install; add others via project’s channel-skill flows (often Claude Code assisted). Prefer allowlists/pairing forever.

Surfaces commonly listed

WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Gmail, Microsoft Teams, and local CLI—verify maturity per adapter. Channels may self-register when credentials exist.

Operator habits

  • One channel first; separate bots for personal vs work
  • Never put vault secrets in chat
  • Mount only channel-needed workspaces into that agent
  • Scheduled jobs that send outbound messages count as production

vs OpenClaw channels

OpenClaw’s channel docs live under our Channels hub. NanoClaw skills/adapters are not ClawHub drop-ins—rebuild critical flows after migration.
