What this skill does
# Smart Follow-ups Skill
Generate contextual follow-up suggestions for OpenClaw conversations.
## How to Trigger
Say any of these to get follow-up suggestions:
| Trigger | Example |
|---------|---------|
| `followups` | "followups" |
| `follow-ups` | "give me follow-ups" |
| `suggestions` | "any suggestions?" |
| `what next` | "what should I ask next?" |
> **Note:** This is a keyword the agent recognizes, not a registered `/slash` command. OpenClaw skills are guidance docs that tell the agent how to respond.
## Usage
Say "followups" in any conversation:
```
You: What is Docker?
Bot: Docker is a containerization platform...
You: /followups
Bot: ๐ก What would you like to explore next?
[โก How do I install Docker?]
[๐ง Explain container architecture]
[๐ Docker vs Kubernetes?]
```
**On button channels (Telegram/Discord/Slack):** Tap a button to ask that question.
**On text channels (Signal/WhatsApp/iMessage/SMS):** Reply with 1, 2, or 3.
## Categories
Each generation produces 3 suggestions:
| Category | Emoji | Purpose |
|----------|-------|---------|
| **Quick** | โก | Clarifications, definitions, immediate next steps |
| **Deep Dive** | ๐ง | Technical depth, advanced concepts, thorough exploration |
| **Related** | ๐ | Connected topics, broader context, alternatives |
## Authentication
**Default:** Uses OpenClaw's existing auth โ same login and model as your current chat.
**Optional providers:**
- `openrouter` โ Requires `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`
- `anthropic` โ Requires `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
## Configuration
```json
{
"skills": {
"smart-followups": {
"enabled": true,
"provider": "openclaw",
"model": null
}
}
}
```
| Option | Default | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| `provider` | `"openclaw"` | Auth provider: `openclaw`, `openrouter`, `anthropic` |
| `model` | `null` | Model override (null = inherit from session) |
| `apiKey` | โ | API key for non-openclaw providers |
## Channel Support
| Channel | Mode | Interaction |
|---------|------|-------------|
| Telegram | Buttons | Tap to ask |
| Discord | Buttons | Click to ask |
| Slack | Buttons | Click to ask |
| Signal | Text | Reply 1-3 |
| WhatsApp | Text | Reply 1-3 |
| iMessage | Text | Reply 1-3 |
| SMS | Text | Reply 1-3 |
| Matrix | Text | Reply 1-3 |
| Email | Text | Reply with number |
See [CHANNELS.md](CHANNELS.md) for detailed channel documentation.
## How It Works
1. User types `/followups`
2. Handler captures recent conversation context
3. OpenClaw generates 3 contextual questions (using current model/auth)
4. Formatted as buttons or text based on channel
5. User clicks button or replies with number
6. OpenClaw answers that question
## Files
| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `handler.js` | Command handler and channel formatting |
| `cli/followups-cli.js` | Standalone CLI for testing/scripting |
| `README.md` | Full documentation |
| `CHANNELS.md` | Channel-specific guide |
| `FAQ.md` | Common questions |
