Enhanced the DevClaw onboarding flow to address real-world usability issues
discovered during testing.
Changes:
1. Model Selection Improvements (Step 2):
- Added explicit prompt to check user's available models first
- Changed 'Default Model' table to 'Suggested default' to emphasize flexibility
- Added model selection guidance with class descriptions:
* junior/tester: Fast, cheap (Haiku-class, GPT-4-mini)
* medior/reviewer: Balanced (Sonnet-class, GPT-4)
* senior: Most capable (Opus-class, o1)
- Emphasized guiding users to configure finer-grained mappings
- Added warning that defaults are suggestions, not requirements
2. Telegram Group Setup Guidance (New Step 4):
- Added comprehensive section on project isolation best practices
- Explains the one-group-per-project model clearly
- Provides rationale:
* Clean issue backlogs per project
* Isolated worker state
* Clear audit trails
* Team-specific access control
- Documents mention requirement (@botname command)
- Includes single-project mode option with strong warning
- Provides tip for getting group ID from bot
3. Improved Flow:
- Renumbered steps (Project Registration is now Step 5)
- Added group ID discovery tip
- Maintained conversational tone while being more explicit
Impact:
- Prevents configuration failures from using unavailable models
- Guides users toward sustainable multi-project setup
- Reduces support burden by proactively explaining best practices
- Still allows single-project mode for solo developers
Addresses issue #132
- Updated WorkerState type to use 'level' instead of 'tier'.
- Modified functions related to worker state management, including parseWorkerState, emptyWorkerState, getSessionForLevel, activateWorker, and deactivateWorker to reflect the new terminology.
- Adjusted health check logic to utilize 'level' instead of 'tier'.
- Refactored tick and setup tools to accommodate the change from 'tier' to 'level', including model configuration and workspace scaffolding.
- Updated tests to ensure consistency with the new 'level' terminology.
- Revised documentation and comments to reflect the changes in terminology from 'tier' to 'level'.
- Updated import paths for task management providers in task-comment, task-create, and task-update tools.
- Removed deprecated task-complete and task-pickup tools, replacing them with work-finish and work-start tools for improved task handling.
- Enhanced work-finish and work-start tools to streamline task completion and pickup processes, including context-aware detection and auto-scheduling features.
- Updated package.json to include build scripts and main entry point.
- Modified tsconfig.json to enable output directory, declaration files, and source maps for better TypeScript support.
- Add context-guard.ts to detect interaction context (via-agent, direct, group) and generate guardrails.
- Introduce onboarding.ts for conversational onboarding context templates and workspace file checks.
- Enhance setup.ts to support new agent creation with channel binding and migration of existing bindings.
- Create analyze-channel-bindings.ts to analyze channel availability and detect binding conflicts.
- Implement context-test.ts for debugging context detection.
- Develop devclaw_onboard.ts for explicit onboarding tool that guides users through setup.
- Update devclaw_setup.ts to include channel binding and migration support in setup process.
- Modify project-register.ts to enforce project registration from group context and auto-populate group ID.
- Enhance queue-status.ts to provide context-aware status checks and recommendations.
- Update task tools (task-complete, task-create, task-pickup) to clarify group ID usage for Telegram/WhatsApp.
