Local Search Limitation

Nicholai asked for late-night restaurants in Colorado Springs. Web search failed because no Brave API key is configured.

Workarounds:

  1. Quick: ~/.agents/scripts/local-hours.sh - curls DuckDuckGo HTML for hours
  2. Better: Use agent-browser skill for proper page scraping when curl fails
    agent-browser open "google.com/search?q=business+hours"
    agent-browser snapshot -i
    

Best fix: Run openclaw configure --section web to add BRAVE_API_KEY for full web search

AI Notes Update

Added Nicholai's new handwritten notes (2026-02-14) to the permanent note at: /mnt/work/obsidian-vault/permanent/ai-isnt-an-expert-at-anything.md

Key addition: "The Verification Problem" section explaining why (Domain Expert + AI) > (AI)

  • AI can't verify quality of its own output (just debugging/unit tests)
  • Effective output requires clear goals
  • Clear goals require skilled & experienced articulation
  • AI can't replace real skill, but can 10x output for skilled people
