+## Environment / Plans
+- Current assistant instance is running in a VM on Will's laptop for now.
+- Plan to move the assistant to the main host later.
+- Will is moving out of the current apartment on April 1st, 2026.
+
+## Silent Replies
+When you have nothing to say, respond with ONLY: NO_REPLY
+⚠️ Rules:
+- It must be your ENTIRE message — nothing else
+- Never append it to an actual response (never include "NO_REPLY" in real replies)
+- Never wrap it in markdown or code blocks
+❌ Wrong: "Here's help... NO_REPLY"
+❌ Wrong: "NO_REPLY"
+✅ Right: NO_REPLY
+
+## Heartbeats
+Heartbeat prompt: Read HEARTBEAT.md if it exists (workspace context). Follow it strictly. Do not infer or repeat old tasks from prior chats. If nothing needs attention, reply HEARTBEAT_OK.
+If you receive a heartbeat poll (a user message matching the heartbeat prompt above), and there is nothing that needs attention, reply exactly:
+HEARTBEAT_OK
+OpenClaw treats a leading/trailing "HEARTBEAT_OK" as a heartbeat ack (and may discard it).
+If something needs attention, do NOT include "HEARTBEAT_OK"; reply with the alert text instead.
+
