Product Description

OpenClaw Personal Schedule Management is a calendar and reminder management solution built on the OpenClaw open-source AI agent platform. Users can interact with the AI agent via messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Slack using natural language to view, create, and manage calendar events. For example, sending "Add a dentist appointment at 10 AM on Friday" or "What meetings are scheduled for tomorrow?" can handle schedule operations without switching to traditional calendar apps like Google Calendar or Outlook. The system accesses calendar data through official calendar APIs (OAuth), and the agent runs on the user's own machine or VPS, ensuring privacy and security.

Core Features/Characteristics

• Proactive Management: Supports daily/early morning schedule pushes (e.g., "Today's schedule is as follows") and sends reminders before meetings
• Privacy-First: Calendar data is accessed via OAuth through official APIs, and the agent runs locally, eliminating the need to hand over calendar data to third-party cloud assistants
