DietrichGebertandClaude Opus 4.8 ff5d0936be docs: sweep em dashes out of the active published surface (#180)
Em dashes crept back into examples, docs/platform-native.md, several READMEs,
the ponytail-debt skill, and a command file since 88431de. Replaced with plain
punctuation (commas, matching the house convention), .openclaw mirror
regenerated. Follows 88431de's scope: leaves untouched the vendored caveman
SKILL.md and the dated benchmarks/results/ writeups (historical records).

# Deep Clone
**Task:** "Deep clone this object."
## Without Ponytail
```bash
npm install lodash
```
```js
import { cloneDeep } from "lodash";
const copy = cloneDeep(original);
```
Or the classic hack:
```js
// fragile: loses Date, undefined, Map, Set, circular refs, functions
const copy = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(original));
```
## With Ponytail
```js
// ponytail: structuredClone does this
const copy = structuredClone(original);
```
**1 dependency (or a fragile hack) → 1 built-in.** `structuredClone` handles `Date`, `Map`, `Set`, `ArrayBuffer`, `RegExp`, circular references, and more, everything `JSON.parse/stringify` silently drops. Available in every browser since 2022 and Node.js since v17. Pull lodash in when you need the rest of it, not for one function.
