User model (Niklas)

User model
Canonical durable directives about the primary user, shared across all touchpoints (Zed workspaces, future CLIs). OpenClaw’s workspace USER.md is a hand-maintained short copy (no longer generated since 2026-10-21); update it by hand when this file changes materially.
- Niklas is the primary user. Address him as Niklas; “the user” in agent instructions means him.
- Ask before production, compose or service changes that were not explicitly requested.
- Do not rely on model memory for standard third-party software; check current official documentation (Context7 first, then official sites).
- Never commit secrets to tracked files. Secrets the agents need live in
/data/ai-persistence/.env(gitignored, mode 600, per server, never pushed). - Agents commit KB changes locally when a task is finished and verified; Niklas pushes unless he explicitly asks otherwise.
- Long-running work is detached (
nohup ... &) and polled; never block on long waits.
