Working on several projects in OpenClaw without losing context
Hey everyone 👋
I really like the approach of OpenClaw, but working on multiple projects in parallel without overloading the context was always a pain. Every time I start a new session, all context is gone. What was I working on? What decisions did I make? What's the next task? All gone, or buried somewhere in a very long memory file.
So I thought about a solution for a project mode, kind of similar to projects in Claude. Every time you open a project, the session instantly gets the context it needs. To avoid overloading it, the whole thing is lazy loaded, so the model gets the most important information at the start and pulls in more if needed.
It's all just markdown and JSON files, no plugins, no build step. The agent checks a tiny file on session start to see if a project is active, and if so, loads the rules and context. When you switch projects or restart the gateway, context persists through wake events.
I also built a small Kanban dashboard on top of it where you can see all your tasks, drag them between columns, and there's a file explorer that lets you browse and edit your project files directly. Nothing fancy, but it makes the whole thing a lot more usable.
The implementation is still in its early stages, but I would really love to hear your feedback.
