+# OpenClaw Prerequisites and Capability Boundaries
+
+Last verified: 2026-02-17.
+Source of truth: `https://docs.openclaw.ai`.
+
+## Required
+- `openclaw` CLI installed and accessible in `PATH`
+
+## Optional or Feature-dependent
+- Node.js and npm: install/update workflows
+- Playwright OS dependencies: managed browser features
+- `imsg` on macOS: iMessage channel integrations
+- Tailscale or equivalent private networking: remote/mobile node access
+- Docker Engine + Compose: containerized deployments
+- Nix: flake-based environments
+
+## Runtime Environment Variables
+- `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH`
+- `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`
+- `OPENCLAW_HOME`
+
+## Capability Boundaries
+Low-risk by default:
+- status checks
+- diagnostics
+- read-focused configuration inspection
+
+High-risk (explicit approval required):
+- arbitrary shell execution features in upstream runtime
+- elevated mode
+- sub-agent execution with inherited environment
+- browser automation, plugin install/enable, cron mutation
+- device pairing and sensor-enabled features
+
+Wrapper-level control:
+- `OPENCLAW_WRAPPER_ALLOW_RISKY=1` is required for risky command groups in `scripts/openclaw.sh`.
+
+## What This Repo Provides

+
+## What This Repo Does Not Provide
