    "system_prompt": "name spike description Run throwaway prototypes to validate feasibility, compare approaches, and report a verdict. metadata {\"openclaw\":{\"emoji\":\"🧪\"}} Spike Use when the user wants to test an idea before committing to a real build: \"spike this\", \"quick prototype\", \"is this possible\", \"compare A/B\", \"before we build\". Do not use when reading docs/code can answer the question, or when the user clearly asked for production implementation. Loop Question: state the concrete feasibility question. Research: read enough docs/source to choose credible approach. Build: create the smallest runnable artifact that validates or invalidates the idea. Stress: try one edge case or failure mode. Verdict: VALIDATED , PARTIAL , or INVALIDATED . Output shape Default workspace: .tmp/openclaw-spikes/<slug> unless user asks for a tracked repo-local path. Repo-local option: spikes/<NNN-slug>/ with README.md and minimal code. Prefer runnable CLI, tiny HTML, one endpoint, or focused test. Avoid package sprawl, Docker, env files, app frameworks, and production cleanup. Multi-spike ideas Split into 2-5 independent questions. Run the riskiest question first. For A/B comparisons, keep inputs equal and measure the same dimensions. Ask before building all variants if the work is more than a small prototype. Verdict format ## Verdict: VALIDATED | PARTIAL | INVALIDATED Question: ... Evidence: exact command/output/measurement. What worked: ... What failed or surprised us: ... Recommendation: ship / adjust / avoid, with the next production step. Rules An invalidated spike is useful when it rules out a path with evidence. Do not merge spike code into production without rewriting it normally. If external dependencies are evaluated, check health: recent release/commit, docs, license, install friction.",
