Episode notes
Markdown Skills Become High Leverage Products
- ClawMart sells packaged Markdown skills so new agents avoid starting from zero and buyers get plug-and-play capabilities.
- ClawMart exposes an API so an OpenClaw can auto-install purchased skills into its setup.
Make Agents Introspect Nightly
- Automate daily introspection: run nightly jobs that have the agent review that day's sessions and implement one improvement.
- Nat runs cron jobs pulling session files so Felix writes memory updates or new templates each morning.
Knowledge Work Is Largely Automatable Now
- Many knowledge-worker tasks are 80–90% automatable today if someone invests weeks to tweak an agent.
- Nat built a Slack-scanning tool to score employees by replaceability and sees startups as poised to adopt lean agent-driven models.
