SoloBuddy

Build-in-public content assistant. A living companion, not a tool.

Quick Start

1. Set your data path in

   ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json

   :

{
  "solobuddy": {
    "dataPath": "~/projects/my-bip-folder",
    "voice": "jester-sage"
  }
}

2. Create folder structure (replace path with your own):

mkdir -p ~/projects/my-bip-folder/ideas ~/projects/my-bip-folder/drafts ~/projects/my-bip-folder/data
touch ~/projects/my-bip-folder/ideas/backlog.md

3. Start using: "show backlog", "new idea", "generate post"

Placeholders

ClawdBot automatically replaces these in commands:

• {dataPath}

  → your configured

  solobuddy.dataPath

• {baseDir}

  → skill installation folder

Project Activity

Read activity snapshot for strategic context:

cat {dataPath}/data/activity-snapshot.json

Fields:

• daysSilent

  — days since last commit

• commitsToday/Yesterday/Week

  — activity intensity

• phase

  — current state: active/momentum/cooling/silent/dormant

• insight

  — human-readable summary

Phases:

• active

  — commits today, project is hot

• momentum

  — yesterday active, today quiet (nudge opportunity)

• cooling

  — 2-3 days silent, losing steam

• silent

  — 3-7 days, needs attention

• dormant

  — 7+ days, paused or abandoned

Use for strategic advice:

• "sphere-777 has 10 commits today — focused there"
• "ReelStudio silent 5 days — should we address it?"
