Dave Kiss rebuilt his complete personal website without ever touching his laptop. Using Telegram as the interface to his OpenClaw agent, he directed the entire project from his couch while watching Netflix.


What Happened

  • Migrated 18 blog posts from Notion to Astro
  • Set up a new Astro-based static site
  • Moved DNS records to Cloudflare
  • Handled all the build and deployment steps
  • Everything via text messages on Telegram

Why This Matters

This demonstrates that OpenClaw agents can handle complex, multi-step development tasks through a simple chat interface. The barrier between "having an idea" and "shipping it" has never been lower.


Requirements Breakdown

  • A server running OpenClaw (Mac Mini, Hetzner, etc.)
  • Telegram bot integration
  • Access tokens for GitHub, Cloudflare, or whatever services you use

Requirements

  • Always-on machine (Mac Mini, VPS)
  • Claude API Key
  • Telegram Bot Token
  • GitHub Account
