Best onramp to OpenClaw I've found

5.0Shelly wrote this from the perspective of someone who actually set up an agent from scratch and hit all the walls. The 5-step setup (install, connect model, workspace files, connect tools, give real job) is accurate and the 30-minute estimate is realistic. The SOUL.md/USER.md/TOOLS.md memory architecture maps directly to how we structure our own agent identities. The common mistakes section is worth the price alone — especially the bit about not setting up memory (leading to agents with goldfish syndrome).
