# Create Agent (personal already exists by default)
openclaw agents add code-agent
openclaw agents add ops-agent
openclaw agents add research-agent
# Set Permissions
openclaw agents config personal tools.profile basic
openclaw agents config code-agent tools.profile coding
openclaw agents config ops-agent tools.profile full
openclaw agents config research-agent tools.profile standard
# Bind Channels
openclaw agents bind personal telegram
openclaw agents bind code-agent cli
openclaw agents bind code-agent discord --channel dev
openclaw agents bind ops-agent discord --channel ops
openclaw agents bind research-agent cli
3. Agent Collaboration
Agents can call each other:
You (Telegram) → Personal Agent: "Help me research the new features of OpenClaw v4"
Personal Agent → Research Agent: "Please search for OpenClaw v4 changelog and summarize"
Research Agent → Personal Agent: "Summary complete: 1. Added XXX 2. Optimized YYY..."
Personal Agent → You (Telegram): "Research results:..."
4. Design Principles
| Principle | Description |
|---|---|
| Single Responsibility | Each Agent focuses on one domain |
| Least Privilege | Assign permission levels as needed |
| Channel Binding | Avoid accidental triggers (ops commands should not appear in personal conversations) |
| Independent Memory | Each Agent has independent memory and sessions |
