OpenClaw: Making it useful
Your OpenClaw is running. It replies. Maybe it's done a few things you've asked it to.
Now make it genuinely useful.
**NOTE: Registration invalid on meetup. Please register on here for a valid ticket: [www.giveago.co/register/openclaw2](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw2)**
This is the second day in the OpenClaw series. We're going deeper: memory that actually persists across conversations, a knowledge base it can draw on, skills that connect it to the tools you already use, and workflows that handle a whole process end to end. These are the things that turn an interesting agent into something you actually rely on.
Self-directed, table-group format. You work at your own pace, in your own direction, with people around you doing the same.
**What we'll work through together**
* Memory architecture: short-term, long-term, episodic and how to set them up properly
* Knowledge bases: connecting your own docs and notes so the agent can draw on them
* Good skills to add: which integrations are worth the effort (Notion, email, calendar, GitHub)
* Giving access to tools: MCP, APIs, function calling
* Proper workflows: multi-step, conditional, handling a whole process and not just one message
* Sandboxing: running actions safely without breaking things or leaking data
**NOTE: Registration invalid on meetup. Please register on here for a valid ticket: [www.giveago.co/register/openclaw2](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw2)**
You don't need to have come to Event 1. If you have OpenClaw running, you're ready for this.
Bring a laptop. Bring your OpenClaw running.

How to get to the meet up:
*LUAS* \- the Drunken Fish is right next to the Mayor Square \- NCI Luas stop on the red line
*DART/Irish Rail* \- Dublin Connolly is probably the easiest station for most people\, but the Docklands station is also close

Repair Café at Stoneybatter Festival
We are delighted to be bringing our Repair Café back to [Stoneybatter Festival](https://stoneybatterfestival.ie/) this June.
Tog Hackerspace will be joining the 10th Stoneybatter Festival with a community Repair Café, giving people a chance to bring along broken household items and work with our volunteers to see if they can be fixed.
Do you have broken items at home, small appliances, toys, electronics, household bits and pieces, or something that just needs a bit of care?
No need to throw them away just yet. Bring them along, and our volunteer fixers will do their best to help. We will have tools, materials, and a team of people who enjoy opening things up, figuring out what went wrong, and sharing repair skills along the way.

## Key Info
**What:** Repair Café at Stoneybatter Festival
**When:** Saturday, 20 June 2026, 2 pm – 6 pm
**Where:** Aughrim Street Scout Group, Dublin 7
**Tickets:** Free, booking via Eventbrite
**Book here:** [https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/repair-cafe-stoneybatter-festival-by-tog-hackerspace-tickets-1989820913918](https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/repair-cafe-stoneybatter-festival-by-tog-hackerspace-tickets-1989820913918)

You can bring along small broken items such as:
* Small electrical appliances
* Electronics
* Toys
* Lamps
* Household items
* Other bits and pieces that might be repairable
Safety testing for electrical items will be available.
Please note that we may not be able to fix everything on the day, but we will do our best to diagnose the issue, suggest next steps, or point you towards parts or recycling options where needed.
## What is a Repair Café?
A Repair Café is a community event where people bring broken items and work with skilled volunteers to try to repair them. It is about keeping useful things out of landfill, saving money, learning practical skills, and having a bit of fun along the way.
At a Repair Café, you can:
* Learn how things work
* Pick up practical repair tips
* Meet people interested in sustainability and making
* Give your broken items a second chance
Stoneybatter Festival is a brilliant celebration of local community, culture, creativity, food, music, and sustainability. We are very happy to be part of it again and to bring some repair energy to the weekend.
So dig out those broken treasures and join us in Stoneybatter on Saturday, 20 June. Let’s see what we can fix together.

Zazen Meditation + Dharma talk or Kinhin
The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood
through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen.
Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have.
We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too.
Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best.
We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you.
Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop).
You are very welcome to our dojo!

Join the group for coffee, a chat and bring your project upstairs in Starbucks on Westmoreland Street from 12-2.30pm (or sometimes longer!).

There's no charge for the meetup but we ask please that you join our Whatsapp group if you plan on staying with the group. Cost is only €5 a year to pay for Meetup subs etc.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
We’ll cover:
* What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
