gavrielc 00fb1bee4a chore(skills): rename add-*-v2 → add-* and drop dead v1 channel skills
Renamed 13 skill folders to drop the -v2 suffix (the v2/v1 distinction
isn't load-bearing anymore — there is no v1 runtime). Deleted the four
v1 channel skills that occupied the rename target paths (add-discord,
add-slack, add-telegram, add-whatsapp); they targeted src/v1 which is
reference-only per CLAUDE.md.

Skill content still says "v2" in places — that's a follow-up commit.

add-matrix-v2 Add Matrix channel integration to NanoClaw v2 via Chat SDK. Works with any Matrix homeserver.

Add Matrix Channel

Adds Matrix support to NanoClaw v2 using the Chat SDK bridge.

Install

v2 trunk doesn't ship channels. This skill copies the Matrix adapter in from the channels branch.

Pre-flight (idempotent)

Skip to Credentials if all of these are already in place:

  • src/channels/matrix.ts exists
  • src/channels/index.ts contains import './matrix.js';
  • @beeper/chat-adapter-matrix is listed in package.json dependencies

Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.

1. Fetch the channels branch

git fetch origin channels

2. Copy the adapter

git show origin/channels:src/channels/matrix.ts > src/channels/matrix.ts

3. Append the self-registration import

Append to src/channels/index.ts (skip if the line is already present):

import './matrix.js';

4. Install the adapter package (pinned)

pnpm install @beeper/chat-adapter-matrix@0.2.0

5. Build

pnpm run build

Credentials

  1. Register a bot account on your Matrix homeserver (e.g., via Element)
  2. Get the homeserver URL (e.g., https://matrix.org or your self-hosted URL)
  3. Get an access token:
    • In Element: Settings > Help & About > Access Token (advanced)
    • Or via API: curl -XPOST 'https://matrix.org/_matrix/client/r0/login' -d '{"type":"m.login.password","user":"botuser","password":"..."}'
  4. Note the bot's user ID (e.g., @botuser:matrix.org)

Configure environment

Add to .env:

MATRIX_BASE_URL=https://matrix.org
MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token
MATRIX_USER_ID=@botuser:matrix.org
MATRIX_BOT_USERNAME=botuser

Sync to container: mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env

Next Steps

If you're in the middle of /setup, return to the setup flow now.

Otherwise, run /manage-channels to wire this channel to an agent group.

Channel Info

  • type: matrix
  • terminology: Matrix has "rooms." A room can be a group chat or a direct message. Rooms have internal IDs (like !abc123:matrix.org) and optional aliases (like #general:matrix.org).
  • how-to-find-id: In Element, click the room name > Settings > Advanced — the "Internal room ID" is the platform ID (starts with !). Or use a room alias like #general:matrix.org.
  • supports-threads: partial (some clients support threads, but not all — treat as no for reliability)
  • typical-use: Interactive chat — rooms or direct messages
  • default-isolation: Same agent group for rooms where you're the primary user. Separate agent group for rooms with different communities or sensitive contexts.
