my_OpenClaw — Phase 1 Development Log

Date: 2026-03-15 Status: Phase 1 complete and verified working post-reboot

What Was Built

A Telegram bot running in WSL as a systemd user service. Provides hybrid remote control of Windows 10 via phone — dashboard buttons + voice alias matching — with a strict whitelist of predefined commands defined in config.yaml.

Phase 1 commands: web_deploy, status (psutil CPU/RAM/Disk), claude (one-shot prompts)

Verified Working

• /status — returns CPU/RAM/Disk stats via psutil ✅
• Voice Claude commands — runs claude -p "{args}" and returns output ✅
• Auto-start on WSL reboot — confirmed working post-reboot ✅
• Audit log — full input/output per command ✅
• Windows desktop monitor (live log stream) ✅

Key Design Decisions

• Telegram chosen over TRIGGERcmd, Tailscale+SSH, Cloudflare webhook — zero port-forwarding, built-in UI, free forever
• my_backup module structure used as template — one module per concern, extensible without touching existing code
• Config-driven — adding a command = 5 lines in YAML, zero Python edits
• Silent reject for unauthorized users — no Telegram reply, local log only
• systemd PATH fix — added Environment="PATH=..." to service unit so claude CLI resolves from the non-interactive shell
