Our workaround: .md files + live browser telemetry. OpenClaw agents reason over .md files natively. Toggle streams real browser sessions into those files automatically — projects, focus patterns, context switches — so the sandbox stays live without touching any production system. A pilot contact gets a working prototype that feels real because it's built on their actual work behavior, not synthetic data.
What surprised us: the UX signal from .md prototypes is good enough to make real product decisions. By the time a customer graduates to full integration, we already know which workflows to automate and which data connections actually matter.

Happy to answer questions on the architecture or the approach.
