How Do I Know It's Using WindSensei?
Without the skill installed, OpenClaw gives you generic weather answers. With WindSensei, you get:
- Specific rideable time windows (e.g. β2-6pmβ) instead of just βit'll be windyβ
- Wind quality ratings based on direction for each spot
- Activity-specific recommendations (kitefoil vs twintip vs wingfoil)
- Water temperature when available
- Calendar integration to block off good sessions
If you see session blocks with wind speeds, direction quality, and activity suggestions, WindSensei is active.
