SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps prevent unnoticed emergencies by ensuring someone checks whether a person living alone is alive and by notifying emergency contacts when they do not respond or when the user triggers SOS.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Daily alive-check with escalation: Sends a daily prompt and, if missed, escalates after 24 hours (gentle nudge to contacts) and again after 48 hours (urgent welfare-check message).
  • SOS emergency workflow: Detects SOS trigger keywords, sends immediate notifications (email-first, SMS best-effort), requests optional location, and provides short first-aid guidance based on symptoms.
  • Emergency contact setup + memory: Guides onboarding to collect contacts, plan selection (cloud vs self-hosted), timezone/check-in time, and stores state for scheduling and notifications.

Quick Start

Install the dontdie skill with clawhub install dontdie, then open any OpenClaw chat and say /dontdie to complete onboarding and start daily check-ins.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up automated daily wellbeing checks for solo living safety?▼

Automated daily wellbeing checks for solo living safety are configured through an onboarding process that collects emergency contacts, sets your timezone and check-in time, and stores scheduling state. The system then runs scheduled cron-based check-ins for reliable daily monitoring.

How does a missed check-in escalation workflow notify emergency contacts?▼

A missed check-in escalation workflow notifies emergency contacts in two stages: a gentle nudge is sent after 24 hours of no response, followed by an urgent welfare-check message after 48 hours. This ensures emergencies do not go unnoticed when someone living alone fails to respond.

Can I trigger an SOS alert with location context and first-aid guidance?▼

Yes, you can trigger an SOS alert by using specific keywords, which immediately dispatches email-first and best-effort SMS notifications. The SOS workflow optionally requests your location and provides short first-aid guidance based on reported symptoms.

Does the dontdie skill support self-hosted notification dispatch via Twilio or Resend?▼

Yes, the dontdie skill supports self-hosted notification dispatch via direct Twilio or Resend integration, alongside a standard cloud API option. You select your preferred notification plan during the initial onboarding setup.

What is the best way to monitor elderly parents living alone for missed check-ins?▼
