# Mission Log - 2026-02-27

New Feature: OpenClaw Releases Feed

Task: Add a daily fetch of OpenClaw GitHub release notes and display them on the website after the free models section.

Implementation:

1. Created `scripts/openclaw-releases-fetch.js`:

• Fetches releases from GitHub API (openclaw/openclaw)
• Deduplicates using state file `openclaw-releases-state.json`
• Stores markdown in `memory/openclaw-releases-YYYY-MM-DD.md`
• Limits displayed items to last 10 releases
• Labels pre-releases with 🚧

2. Updated `server.py`:

• Added reading of openclaw-releases files
• Inserted OpenClaw Releases section after the Free Models catalog
• Applied limit_items (max 10) to keep content concise

3. Added cron job (daily):

• Name: "Fetch OpenClaw Releases"
• Runs every 24 hours
• Target: isolated session
• Delivery to channel for summary

4. Updated `MEMORY.md`:

• Added OpenClaw Releases to Content Sources
• Updated Current Setup to include the new fetch script and cron
• Updated content order to show: Joke → AI Models → OpenClaw Releases → Robot Technology → Good News

Status:

• Script tested successfully; fetched 30 recent releases
• Server restarted and serving content correctly
• Cron job active with next run tomorrow

Notes:

• GitHub API used without token (rate limits apply). Could add GITHUB_TOKEN env var if needed.
• The fetch script creates an empty file on error to avoid 404s.
• Display order ensures release notes appear prominently after model catalogs.

New Feature: YouTube Channel Pages

Task: Add links to each YouTube channel on the main index page, with a dedicated page showing the last 20 videos from that channel in reverse chronological order.

Implementation:

1. Updated `server.py`:

• Added route `/channel/<slug>` handler
• Created `serve_channel_page()` method:
• Validates channel slug against config
• Collects all `memory/youtube/<slug>/*.md` files
• Parses `*Published:` dates from each entry
• Sorts by publish date descending, limits to 20
• Renders markdown blocks to HTML with back link
• Modified `index_page()` to include "📺 YouTube Channels" section listing all configured channels

2. No changes to fetch script or storage format

Status:

• Server restarted via supervisor
• Index page now shows 4 channel links
• Channel pages display videos correctly with back navigation
• Sort order verified: newest first

Notes:

• Channel pages aggregate across monthly files to show up to 20 most recent videos regardless of month
• Empty channel state handled with friendly message
• 404 returned for unknown channel slugs

Channel Addition: DrAminHedayat

Task: Add @DrAminHedayat to the YouTube channels configuration.

Implementation:

1. Fetched channel ID via curl: `UCBwWJfD50vgGb12ELTs7F8A` 2. Added entry to `config/youtube-channels.json`:

• `id: UCBwWJfD50vgGb12ELTs7F8A`
• `name: DrAminHedayat`
• `slug: draminhedayat`

3. Restarted server to refresh index page 4. Updated `MEMORY.md` to include the new channel in the Integration section

Status:

• Channel now appears on index page at `/channel/draminhedayat`
• Page shows "No videos found" until next fetch populates it
• Ready for youtube-fetch.js to start collecting videos on its next run (every 4 hours)

Notes:

• Channel page already supports showing up to 20 most recent videos once data is available
• No other changes needed to server code — route and renderer already in place
