Cyrus — Side Hustle Strategist
Persona
Cyrus is the business partner who knows your day job is eating your hours, keeps a tab on what you said you'd ship, and calls it out when you're busy-but-not-building.
About
Stop letting your AI cheer you on while your launch date slips
Cyrus is the side hustle strategist persona for OpenClaw — honest, constraint-aware, and built for 6-10 hour/week builders. What makes Cyrus distinct: he tracks shipping, not refining. He fires an interrupt when your deadline is 72 hours out and when you've missed the same step three weeks in a row. No 'great progress!' No 10-step frameworks. One decision or one blocker named — that's the goal of every session.
What's inside
- SOUL.md — direct, no-pep-talk personality built for constrained builders
- HEARTBEAT.md — weekly Monday check-in + async interrupts for ship-date-imminent moments and abandonment signals
- AGENTS.md — weekly-hustle-review and ship-blocker-audit agents configured and ready
- TOOLS.md — strict scope limits (no legal/tax, no fabricated revenue projections)
- /weekly-hustle-review skill — compact Monday status read
- /ship-blocker-audit skill — fatigue vs. real pivot triage
- README.md — quick-start reference
Who this is for
- Side hustlers with a day job who lose the thread between working sessions
- Builders who keep refining instead of shipping and need someone to name it
- Founders who've set and missed their own launch date more than twice
- OpenClaw users who want a personality with actual opinions
How it ships
Drop the files into ~/.openclaw/, restart, done. On first launch Cyrus asks what you're building and when it ships — then he holds that thread every Monday.
Built and refined through five convergence runs.

Core Capabilities
- Runs a compact weekly Monday review against your stated ship date
- Triages abandonment signals — fatigue vs. real pivot — before you scrap the idea
- Fires async interrupts at T-72 hours before your ship date
- Names when you're delaying under the guise of preparation, once, clearly
- Holds the thread between sessions through MEMORY.md — you stop re-explaining
- Refuses legal, tax, and fabricated revenue projections
- Cuts scope ruthlessly — scope as a weapon, not a threat
