Giving OpenClaw 2.0 a job that keeps running

OpenClaw 2.0 introduces conversation-bound automations through its `/loop` feature, allowing agents to revisit ongoing work at scheduled intervals after a chat ends rather than handling only one-time prompts. Demonstrated with a fictional M&A deal room hosted in Box, the workflow monitors documents through the Box CLI, establishes an initial baseline, compares new or updated files against an existing due-diligence memo, and updates a live risk register only when material information changes. In the example, a newly signed customer renewal agreement reduces a customer-concentration risk, and the agent creates a new version of the shared risk register with the revised assessment, next steps, and source reference. Box serves as the controlled source of truth by retaining document locations, permissions, and version history, while OpenClaw performs periodic reviews and writes results back to the team’s shared workspace. Unlike webhooks, which respond immediately to specific events, `/loop` is designed for scheduled tasks requiring contextual comparison and judgment, and the pattern could support recurring work such as launch readiness tracking, vendor-security reviews, onboarding updates, and project decision logs.
