czl9707/build-your-own-openclaw
A tutorial with 18 steps that teaches building an AI agent from a simple chat loop to a multi-agent system with tool use and intelligent routing.

The guide progresses through three phases: first building a capable single agent with chat, tools, skills, persistence, and web access; then refactoring to event-driven architecture with multi-platform support via channels and websockets; finally adding autonomous capabilities with multi-agent collaboration, cron scheduling, and intelligent routing. Each step includes runnable code and documentation explaining design decisions.
