Build a Wikipedia About Your Life with OpenClaw
You've got years of content. Blog posts. Podcasts. Newsletters. Notes.
Most of it's sitting in folders. You can't find the thing you wrote three years ago. You repeat yourself. You forget what you already figured out.
Fix that. Run OpenClaw on your own content. Get a personal wiki that cross-references everything—deployed and secured with Clawctl in under 10 minutes.
What You Actually Get
- Cross-references — That podcast from 2023 links to the blog post you wrote on the same topic in 2024. One query, full context.
- Forgotten context — "Oh right, I already solved this." No more reinventing the wheel.
- Structured articles — Career timeline, people you've mentioned, projects you've shipped. On demand.
- Answers about you — "When did I first write about X?" "Who introduced me to Y?" Your own research assistant that's read everything you've ever created.
No fluff. Just your content, organized and queryable.
What to Feed It
More input = better output.
Content: Blog posts, podcast transcripts, newsletter archives, social exports (Twitter/X, LinkedIn), YouTube transcripts.
Docs: Bio, resume, company blurbs, project writeups.
Personal: Journal entries, meeting notes, selected email threads, transcribed voice memos.
Metadata: Dates, tags, people, places. The more structure you keep, the sharper the wiki.
Dump it in a folder. Point Clawctl at it. Done.
How It Works
OpenClaw + your content = Wikipedia-style articles on demand.
/wiki "career timeline"
Structured timeline. Blog, podcast, social—all pulled in.
/wiki "people I've collaborated with"
Articles on everyone you've mentioned. How you know them. What you built together.
/wiki "my takes on AI agents"
Everything you've said about AI agents, chronologically. One place.
You ask. It surfaces. No digging through drives.
Why Use Clawctl for This
Your personal wiki is your data. Blog posts, notes, transcripts. You don't want it on someone else's server. You also don't want to run OpenClaw yourself and leave it exposed.
Clawctl is managed OpenClaw: secure-by-default deployment, isolated tenants, audit logs, encrypted API keys. You get the agent. We handle the infra and security. Your content stays in your tenant. No public exposure. No leaked keys.
Self-hosted OpenClaw sounds cheap until you're one of the 42,665 exposed instances. Or one of the 1,800+ with API keys visible on Shodan. For a wiki of your life, use Clawctl—deploy once, lock it down, forget about it.
Setup with Clawctl
1. Deploy
Sign up at clawctl.com/checkout and your agent is provisioned in 60 seconds.
2. Create a workspace
mkdir ~/wikibase
3. Add your content
~/wikibase/
├── blog/
│ ├── 2023/
│ └── 2024/
├── podcast/
│ └── transcripts/
├── social/
│ ├── twitter-archive/
│ └── linkedin-posts/
├── docs/
│ ├── bio.md
│ └── resume.md
└── notes/
└── journals/
4. Point Clawctl at it
Configure your workspace directory in the dashboard setup wizard by selecting your ~/wikibase folder.
Drop in a system prompt for wiki-style output:
You are a personal wiki assistant. You have access to all of my content: blog posts, podcast transcripts, social media, documents, and notes.
When I ask for a wiki article, create a structured Wikipedia-style article with:
- Summary section
- Detailed sections with headers
- Cross-references to related content
- Timeline when relevant
- Sources (links to original content)
Be thorough but concise. Include specific quotes and dates when available.
5. Query it
Send a message via the web chat in the dashboard: /wiki overview of my professional history
That's it. Your wiki is live. Secured by Clawctl. No DevOps. No exposed instances.
Who Actually Uses This
Content creators: "What have I already said about this?" "Find me a quote." "Timeline of my business."
Job seekers: Talking points from your experience. Projects that show skill X. Prep for "tell me about Y."
Writers: Recurring themes. How your perspective changed. Contradictions in past takes.
Anyone with a lot of output: One place to search. One place to connect the dots. No existential drama—just a tool that works.
Bottom Line
You've already created the content. You just couldn't use it.
OpenClaw turns it into a personal wiki. Clawctl gets you a secure, managed deployment in minutes. Your data stays yours. Your instance stays locked down.
Feed it everything. Query it when you need it. Deploy with Clawctl → and stop losing your own work.
