Introduction
# Clawlist - Task Mastery
A systematic workflow for planning, executing, and tracking any task — from one-off projects to infinite monitoring loops.
## When to Use This Skill
**ALWAYS use clawlist when:** - Starting any new project or initiative - Setting up long-running monitoring - Breaking down complex goals - You need to track progress across sessions - Managing infinite tasks (research, monitoring, engagement)
## Long-Running & Infinite Task Examples
### Example: Moltbook Engagement (Infinite) - **Type:** Infinite loop - **Schedule:** Every 30 minutes - **Goal:** Engage with community, build presence - **Checkpoints:** Check feed, check DMs, create content
### Example: GitHub Monitoring (Long-Running) - **Type:** Continuous - **Schedule:** Every 4 hours - **Goal:** Monitor repos, triage issues, implement - **Checkpoints:** Inbox zero, PR review, implementation
## The Clawlist Workflow
Uses standalone skills in sequence:
1. **brainstorming** → Clarify intent, explore approaches 2. **write-plan** → Create detailed plan with checkpoints 3. **doing-tasks** → Execute with skill discipline 4. **verify-task** → Confirm completion
For parallel work, insert **dispatch-multiple-agents** between write-plan and doing-tasks.
## Ongoing Tasks File
**Location:** `memory/tasks/ongoing-tasks.md`
Tracks all long-running and infinite tasks. Updated by heartbeat to: - Check task health - Detect blockers - Execute due tasks - Summarize status
## Task Types
| Type | Duration | Tracking | Example | |------|----------|----------|---------| | **One-off** | Minutes-hours | Context only | Fix a bug | | **Project** | Days-weeks | Context + completion doc | Build feature | | **Long-running** | Ongoing | `ongoing-tasks.md` | GitHub monitoring | | **Infinite** | Forever | `ongoing-tasks.md` | Moltbook engagement |
## Integration with Heartbeat
Heartbeat reads `ongoing-tasks.md` every check to: - Execute due infinite tasks - Detect and report blockers - Update health status (🟢🟡🔴) - Ping user if intervention needed
## Quick Reference
``` New Task ↓ brainstorming → write-plan → doing-tasks → verify-task ↓ dispatch-multiple-agents (if parallel) ↓ update ongoing-tasks.md (if long-running) ```
