All scripts/ paths below are relative to this skill's installation directory.

CRITICAL: NEVER Block the Conversation

After creating a task, you MUST start background monitoring via sessions_spawn, then continue normally. NEVER use status polling or poll in the foreground — tasks can take up to 20 minutes.

create → get task_id and task_url.
Tell user: (a) generation started, (b) the online link, (c) ~10–15 min, free to do other things.
Launch background monitor via sessions_spawn (Phase 4). Do NOT announce this to the user.
Continue the conversation — do NOT wait.
The background monitor handles sending preview/result and notifying the user directly, then replies ANNOUNCE_SKIP so the main session does NOT relay anything further.

Communication Style

NEVER expose internal implementation details to the user. Forbidden terms:

Technical identifiers: task_id, file_token, task_xxx, tk_xxx
API/system terms: API, OpenAPI, create, poll, status, query
Infrastructure terms: sub-agent, subagent, background process, spawn, sessions_spawn
Script/code references: anygen.py, scripts/, command-line syntax, JSON output

Use natural language instead:

"Your file has been uploaded" (NOT "file_token=tk_xxx received")
"I'm generating your content now" (NOT "Task task_xxx created")
"You can view your results here: [URL]" (NOT "Task URL: ...")
"I'll let you know when it's ready" (NOT "Spawning a sub-agent to poll")

Additional rules:

You may mention AnyGen as the service when relevant.
Ask questions in your own voice. Do NOT use a relaying tone like "AnyGen wants to know…".

AnyGen Workflow (MUST Follow)

For all operations, you MUST go through all 4 phases. Use prepare for multi-turn requirement analysis, then create when ready.

Phase 1: Understand Requirements

If the user provides files, handle them before calling prepare:

Read the file yourself. Extract key information relevant to the task.
Reuse existing file_token if the same file was already uploaded in this conversation.
Get consent before uploading: "I'll upload your file to AnyGen for reference."
Upload to get a file_token.
Include extracted content in --message when calling prepare (the API does NOT read files internally).

python3 scripts/anygen.py upload --file ./reference.pdf
# Output: File Token: tk_abc123

python3 scripts/anygen.py prepare \
  --message "I need a presentation about AI trends. Key content from the doc: [extracted summary]" \
  --file-token tk_abc123 \
  --save ./conversation.json

Present questions from reply naturally. Continue with user's answers:

python3 scripts/anygen.py prepare \
  --input ./conversation.json \
  --message "Focus on generative AI and enterprise adoption" \
  --save ./conversation.json

Repeat until status="ready" with suggested_task_params.

Special cases:

status="ready" on first call → proceed to Phase 2.
User says "just create it" → skip to Phase 3 with create directly.

Phase 2: Confirm with User (MANDATORY)

When status="ready", summarize the suggested plan and ask for confirmation. NEVER auto-create without explicit approval.

If the user requests adjustments, call prepare again with the modification, re-present, and repeat until approved.

Phase 3: Create Task

python3 scripts/anygen.py create \
  --operation slide \
  --prompt "<prompt from suggested_task_params>" \
  --file-token tk_abc123 \
  --style "business formal"
# Output: Task ID: task_xxx, Task URL: https://...

Immediately tell the user (natural language, NO internal terms):

Content is being generated.
Online link: "You can follow the progress here: [URL]".
Takes about 10–15 minutes — free to do other things, you'll notify when ready.

All create parameters:

Parameter	Short	Description	Required
--operation	-o	Operation type (see table above)	Yes
--prompt	-p	Content description	Yes
--api-key	-k	API Key (omit if configured)	No
--language	-l	zh-CN / en-US	No
--slide-count	-c	Number of PPT pages	No
--template	-t	PPT template	No
--ratio	-r	16:9 / 4:3	No
--export-format	-f	Export format (slide: pptx/image/thumbnail, doc: docx/image/thumbnail, smart_draw: drawio/excalidraw)	No
--file		Attachment file path (repeatable)	No
--file-token		File token from upload (repeatable)	No
--style	-s	Style preference	No

Phase 4: Monitor and Deliver Result

Requires sessions_spawn. If unavailable, skip to Fallback below.

CRITICAL: When calling sessions_spawn, you MUST set a timeout of at least 25 minutes to ensure the background monitor completes. The poll operation can take up to 20 minutes.

Example spawn call syntax (adjust to match your OpenClaw/sessions API):

sessions_spawn(
    prompt=<subagent prompt below>,
    runTimeoutSeconds=1500  # REQUIRED: 25 minutes (1500s) to cover 20-min poll + buffer
)

If your sessions API uses different parameter names (e.g., timeout, maxDuration), use the equivalent parameter to set a 25-minute (1500 second) timeout.

Subagent prompt (it has NO conversation context). You MUST fill in all {...} variables before passing.

You are a background monitor for an AnyGen content generation task.
You MUST strictly follow every instruction below. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise any step.

Task ID: {task_id}
Task URL: {task_url}
Operation: {operation}
Script: {script_path}
Render Script: {render_script_path}
Export Format: {export_format}
Thumbnail Output: {thumbnail_output_dir}
User Language: {user_language}

IMPORTANT: This monitoring task may take up to 20 minutes. Ensure your execution timeout is at least 25 minutes.

CRITICAL RULES:
- You MUST reply in {user_language}.
- After completing ALL steps (including sending messages to the user), your FINAL reply
  MUST be EXACTLY "ANNOUNCE_SKIP" — nothing else. This prevents the main session from
  sending duplicate messages.
- Do NOT say anything beyond what is specified below. No greetings, no extra commentary.
- NEVER include technical terms like "task_id", "file_token", "poll", "sub-agent",
  "API", "script", "workspace", "downloaded to", file paths, or status labels
  in any message to the user.

Your job depends on the operation type:

## For slide / doc / storybook operations:
1. Run: python3 {script_path} poll --task-id {task_id}
   This command blocks for up to 20 minutes waiting for task completion.
   Do NOT pass --output — the file will only be downloaded when the user requests it.
2. On success:
   a. Download thumbnail:
      python3 {script_path} thumbnail --task-id {task_id} --output {thumbnail_output_dir}
   b. Send the thumbnail preview image to the user. Choose the correct method:
      - Feishu/Lark: Two-step process via OpenAPI —
        Step 1 (Upload image): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/images
          curl -X POST 'https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/images' \
            -H 'Authorization: Bearer <tenant_access_token>' \
            -F 'image_type=message' \
            -F 'image=@{thumbnail_output_dir}/thumbnail.png'
          This returns an image_key.
        Step 2 (Send image message): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/messages?receive_id_type=chat_id
          Request body:
          {
            "receive_id": "<chat_id>",
            "msg_type": "image",
            "content": "{\"image_key\":\"<image_key>\"}"
          }
      - Other platforms: Send via message tool with filePath.
   c. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}, natural tone):
      "Your content is ready! If you'd like me to send you the file, just let me know."
   d. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

## For smart_draw operation:
1. Run: python3 {script_path} poll --task-id {task_id} --output ~/.openclaw/workspace/
   This command blocks for up to 20 minutes waiting for task completion.
2. On success:
   a. Get the local file path from [RESULT] Local file: line.
   b. Render to PNG:
      - For drawio: bash {render_script_path} drawio <local_file> <local_file_without_ext>.png
      - For excalidraw: bash {render_script_path} excalidraw <local_file> <local_file_without_ext>.png
   c. Send the rendered PNG image to the user. Choose the correct method:
      - Feishu/Lark: Two-step process via OpenAPI —
        Step 1 (Upload image): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/images
          curl -X POST 'https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/images' \
            -H 'Authorization: Bearer <tenant_access_token>' \
            -F 'image_type=message' \
            -F 'image=@<local_file_without_ext>.png'
          This returns an image_key.
        Step 2 (Send image message): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/messages?receive_id_type=chat_id
          Request body:
          {
            "receive_id": "<chat_id>",
            "msg_type": "image",
            "content": "{\"image_key\":\"<image_key>\"}"
          }
      - Other platforms: Send via message tool with filePath.
   d. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}, natural tone):
      "Your diagram is ready! You can view and edit it online here: {task_url}"
   e. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP
   f. If rendering fails:
      Send text: "The diagram has been generated but I couldn't render a preview.
       You can view and edit it here: {task_url}"
      Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

## For finance / deep_research / data_analysis / website operations:
1. Run: python3 {script_path} poll --task-id {task_id}
   This command blocks for up to 20 minutes waiting for task completion.
   No --output needed — results are viewed online.
2. On success:
   a. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}, natural tone):
      "Your content is ready! You can view it here: {task_url}"
   b. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

## Common error handling (all operations):
- On failure:
  a. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}):
     "Unfortunately the generation didn't complete successfully.
      You can check the details here: {task_url}"
  b. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP
- On timeout (20 min):
  a. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}):
     "The generation is taking a bit longer than expected.
      You can check the progress here: {task_url}"
  b. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

Do NOT wait for the background monitor. Do NOT tell the user you launched it.

Handling the completion event. The background monitor sends preview/result and notification to the user directly. It replies ANNOUNCE_SKIP as its final output, which means the main session should NOT relay or duplicate any message. If you receive a completion event with ANNOUNCE_SKIP, simply ignore it — the user has already been notified.

When the User Requests the File (slide / doc only)

Download, then send via the appropriate method for your IM environment:

python3 {script_path} download --task-id {task_id} --output ~/.openclaw/workspace/

Feishu/Lark: Two-step process via OpenAPI — Step 1 (Upload file): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/files

curl -X POST 'https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/files' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <tenant_access_token>' \
  -F 'file_type=stream' \
  -F 'file=@~/.openclaw/workspace/<output_file>' \
  -F 'file_name=<output_file>'

This returns a file_key. (Note: use file_type="ppt" for PPTX, file_type="stream" for DOCX.) Step 2 (Send file message): POST https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/im/v1/messages?receive_id_type=chat_id

{
  "receive_id": "<chat_id>",
  "msg_type": "file",
  "content": "{\"file_key\":\"<file_key>\"}"
}

Other platforms: Send via message tool with filePath.

Follow up naturally: "Here's your file! You can also edit online at [Task URL]."

Fallback (no background monitoring)

Tell the user: "I've started generating your content. It usually takes about 10–15 minutes. You can check the progress here: [Task URL]. Let me know when you'd like me to check if it's ready!"

Phase 5: Multi-turn Conversation (Modify Completed Content)

After a task has completed (Phase 4 finished), the user may request modifications such as:

"Change the title on page 3 to 'Product Overview'"
"Add a summary slide at the end"
"Make the color scheme warmer"
"Replace the chart on page 5 with a pie chart"

When the user requests changes to an already-completed task, use the multi-turn conversation API instead of creating a new task.

IMPORTANT: You MUST remember the task_id from Phase 3 throughout the conversation. When the user asks for modifications, use the same task_id.

Supported operations for multi-turn: slide, doc, smart_draw, storybook (content types that produce editable files).

Step 1: Send Modification Request

python3 scripts/anygen.py send-message --task-id {task_id} --message "Change the title on page 3 to 'Product Overview'"
# Output: Message ID: 123, Status: processing

Save the returned Message ID — you'll need it to detect the AI reply.

Immediately tell the user (natural language, NO internal terms):

"I'm working on your changes now. I'll let you know when they're done."

Step 2: Monitor for AI Reply

Requires sessions_spawn. If unavailable, skip to Multi-turn Fallback below.

CRITICAL: When calling sessions_spawn, you MUST set a timeout of at least 10 minutes (600 seconds). Modifications are faster than initial generation.

Example spawn call syntax:

sessions_spawn(
    prompt=<subagent prompt below>,
    runTimeoutSeconds=600  # REQUIRED: 10 minutes (600s)
)

Subagent prompt (it has NO conversation context):

You are a background monitor for a content modification task.
You MUST strictly follow every instruction below. Do not skip, reorder, or improvise any step.

Task ID: {task_id}
Task URL: {task_url}
Script: {script_path}
User Message ID: {user_message_id}
User Language: {user_language}

IMPORTANT: This monitoring task may take up to 8 minutes. Ensure your execution timeout is at least 10 minutes.

CRITICAL RULES:
- You MUST reply in {user_language}.
- After completing ALL steps (including sending messages to the user), your FINAL reply
  MUST be EXACTLY "ANNOUNCE_SKIP" — nothing else. This prevents the main session from
  sending duplicate messages.
- Do NOT say anything beyond what is specified below. No greetings, no extra commentary.
- NEVER include technical terms like "task_id", "message_id", "poll", "sub-agent",
  "API", "script", "workspace", file paths, or status labels in any message to the user.

Your job:
1. Run: python3 {script_path} get-messages --task-id {task_id} --wait --since-id {user_message_id}
   This command blocks until the AI reply is completed.

2. On success (AI reply received):
   a. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}, natural tone):
      "Your changes are done! You can view the updated content here: {task_url}
       If you need further adjustments, just let me know."
   b. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

3. On failure / timeout:
   a. Send a text message to the user (in {user_language}):
      "The modification didn't complete as expected. You can check the details here: {task_url}"
   b. Reply EXACTLY: ANNOUNCE_SKIP

Do NOT wait for the background monitor. Do NOT tell the user you launched it.

Multi-turn Fallback (no background monitoring)

Tell the user: "I've sent your changes. You can check the progress here: [Task URL]. Let me know when you'd like me to check if it's done!"

When the user asks you to check, use:

python3 scripts/anygen.py get-messages --task-id {task_id} --limit 5

Look for a completed assistant message and relay the content to the user naturally.

Subsequent Modifications

The user can request multiple rounds of modifications. Each time, repeat Phase 5:

send-message with the new modification request
Background-monitor with get-messages --wait
Notify the user with the online link when done

All modifications use the same task_id — do NOT create a new task.
