### The Dream Cycle (DREAMS.md)
The most important cron job runs while you sleep. OpenClaw ships with DREAMS.md as a
default skill. When quiet hours start, the dream cycle kicks off:
1. **Entity sweep.** Scan today's conversations for every person, company, concept, or
idea you mentioned. Check each against the brain.
2. **Enrich the thin spots.** Create pages for entities that don't exist yet. Update
pages that are thin. Write your direct assessments verbatim... the exact words you
used, not a cleaned-up paraphrase.
3. **Fix broken citations.** Tweet links without URLs, missing source attributions,
timeline entries without dates. The citation hygiene problems that accumulate during
fast daytime conversations get cleaned up in the background.
4. **Consolidate memory.** Signals that matter get promoted to MEMORY.md. Patterns the
agent noticed across multiple conversations get surfaced. Ephemeral context becomes
durable knowledge.
The dream cycle is why the brain compounds. During the day, you're moving fast and the
agent captures signal opportunistically. At night, the agent goes back through everything
methodically. You wake up and the brain is smarter than when you went to sleep.
This is the difference between an agent that forgets and one that remembers. The dream
cycle is not optional for a production brain. Without it, signal leaks out of every
conversation. With it, nothing is lost.
