## Workflow

### Step 1: Collect Work Data

Gather information from multiple sources:

1. **Session Transcripts** — Check `~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/` for recent session files
2. **Memory Files** — Read `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` files for daily logs
3. **MEMORY.md** — Check long-term memory for significant events
4. **Git Activity** — Run `git log` across projects for commit history
5. **Docker Containers** — Check container uptime and health status
6. **Cron Jobs** — Review scheduled task execution history
7. **File Changes** — Check recent file modifications in workspace

### Step 2: Analyze & Categorize

Organize findings into these categories:

- **🔧 Tasks Completed** — Finished work items, resolved issues
- **🚀 Projects Progress** — Ongoing project status, milestones reached
- **🐛 Bugs Fixed** — Issues resolved, errors handled
- **📚 Learnings** — New knowledge gained, skills improved
- **⚠️ Challenges** — Obstacles encountered, solutions attempted
- **💡 Ideas** — New ideas generated, improvements suggested
- **📊 Metrics** — Quantifiable results (e.g., commits, messages processed)

```

Also update `MEMORY.md` with key highlights if significant events occurred.

### Step 5: Export Reports

#### HTML Export

Generate a professional HTML report with:

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Work Report - {Date}</title>
    <style>
        body { font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, sans-serif; max-width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 40px 20px; background: #f5f5f5; }
        .container { background: white; border-radius: 12px; padding: 40px; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1); }
        h1 { color: #1a1a2e; border-bottom: 3px solid #4a90d9; padding-bottom: 12px; }
        h2 { color: #16213e; margin-top: 32px; }
        .metric { display: inline-block; background: #e8f4fd; padding: 12px 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 8px; text-align: center; }
        .metric .number { font-size: 2em; font-weight: bold; color: #4a90d9; }
        .metric .label { font-size: 0.9em; color: #666; }
        table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 16px 0; }
        th, td { padding: 12px; text-align: left; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee; }
        th { background: #f8f9fa; font-weight: 600; }
        .status-green { color: #28a745; }
        .status-yellow { color: #ffc107; }
        .status-red { color: #dc3545; }
        .footer { margin-top: 40px; padding-top: 20px; border-top: 1px solid #eee; color: #999; font-size: 0.9em; }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="container">
        <!-- Report content -->
    </div>
</body>
</html>
```

Save to: `memory/reports/report-{YYYY-MM-DD}.html`

#### PDF Export

To generate PDF, use one of these methods:

1. **If `puppeteer` or `playwright` is available**: Render HTML to PDF
2. **If `wkhtmltopdf` is installed**: Convert HTML to PDF directly
3. **Fallback**: Provide the HTML file with instructions to print-to-PDF

Save to: `memory/reports/report-{YYYY-MM-DD}.pdf`

### Step 6: Deliver Report

Send the report to the user via the current channel with:

1. **Text summary** in the chat
2. **File attachment** for HTML/PDF if requested
3. **Confirmation message**: "Boss, report delivered! Every task has a response. 🦞"

|----------|--------|
| No session data found | Use available memory files, note data limitations |
| No memory files exist | Create fresh files with today's date |
| Export format unavailable | Use fallback method, inform user |
| Git repos not found | Skip git metrics, note in report |

---

## Configuration

Store user preferences in skill config:

```json
{
  "bossReport": {
    "defaultFormat": "markdown",
    "autoSaveToMemory": true,
    "includeMetrics": true,
    "includeTomorrowPlan": true,
    "outputDir": "memory/reports",
    "htmlTheme": "professional"
  }
}
```

## Best Practices

1. **Be specific** — Use exact numbers and details, not vague statements
2. **Be honest** — Report challenges and blockers, not just successes
3. **Be concise** — Bosses want key info, not a novel
4. **Be proactive** — Include tomorrow's plan and next week's goals
5. **Be professional** — This is a work document, keep it polished
6. **Be consistent** — Use the same format every time for easy comparison
