I suppose combining it might be a way? The logic to handle hard coded things like "after 30 minutes of condition X do Y" I would not let a agent run, but Y can then be agent work like "analyze this text in file/webpage". And then do some other logic and then maybe knvoke a different agent. I am in the process of finding out how best to achieve it. Or does OpenClaw provide exactly this? (I never took it serious so far, so never investigated)

I have been underwhelmed by the available models I was able to run locally compared to what Anthropic was providing. The other models I have access to are for work purposes (Gemini and open weight models running on company GPUs) and I’m not going to run this on those.

But, if I did find a viable model, I wouldn’t see why a script would be better than OC.

I just learned, that you can also invoke claude code from the terminal with a specific prompt for this without API access

claude - p "prompt"

Just for one prompt/job, though. But that might be enough for some of my use cases. Because you can also prompt again. And again .. a targeted prompt with one exact job, then custom deterministic logic and go on, maybe another prompt. I might get into that, it also just worked telling it "claude -p 'analyze picture.png" where picture was in the folder and it gave a correct description back to terminal. I wonder why that is not more advertized .. I would have liked to known earlier and will do some experiments now.

Assuming you’re not using OpenClaw to do it, you’re right, that may work just fine.

		Ah, I missed all that. So basically it works for now, but who knows for how long.
