feat: refactor agent training to use OpenClaw agent with allowlist for AITBC CLI execution

Replaced direct AITBC CLI command execution with OpenClaw agent-based execution that respects the allowlist:

- Changed openclaw_training_operations to execute commands via `openclaw agent --message` instead of direct CLI calls
- Removed operation-specific command building logic (wallet_create, genesis_init, etc.)
- Simplified execution flow to single OpenClaw agent invocation with prompt message
- Added prerequisites

+# AITBC Training Environment Setup Skill
+
+## Overview
+
+Specializes in setting up and managing the AITBC training environment using the Python-based setup system. Handles environment prerequisites, wallet funding, messaging configuration, and schema-driven stage execution.
+
+## Installation
+
+If you're running the CLI from inside a virtualenv / container, the `aitbc` package needs to be on `sys.path`. Easiest way:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e /opt/aitbc
+```
+
+or, if you prefer not to install globally:
+
+```bash
+export PYTHONPATH=/opt/aitbc:$PYTHONPATH
+```
+
+After that, the CLI can be invoked with:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli <command>
+```
+
+Note: The CLI script automatically adds the parent directory to sys.path for importability.
+
+## Core Operations
+
+### Environment Setup
+
+```bash
+# Setup complete training environment
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli setup
+
+# Check prerequisites
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli check
+
+# Verify environment
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli verify
+```
+
+### Wallet Management
+
+```bash
+# Fund a specific wallet
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli fund-wallet my-wallet --password my-password
+```
+
+### Schema-Driven Stage Execution
+
+```bash
+# Run a training stage from JSON schema
+python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli run-stage /path/to/stage.json
+```
+
+## Python API Usage
+
+```python
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment
+
+# Create environment with deterministic wallet naming
+env = TrainingEnvironment(
+    aitbc_dir="/opt/aitbc",
+    log_dir="/var/log/aitbc/training-setup",
+    faucet_amount=1000,
+    wallet_prefix="training-w"
+)
+
+# Setup full environment
+results = env.setup_full_environment()
+
+# Run stage from JSON
+result = env.run_stage_from_json("/path/to/stage.json")
+
+# Get deterministic wallet names
+wallet1 = env.get_wallet_name(1)  # training-w1
+wallet2 = env.get_wallet_name(2)  # training-w2
+```
+
+## Schema-Driven Stage Execution
+
+### Stage JSON Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "stage": 1,
+  "title": "Foundation – Wallets & Accounts",
+  "prerequisites": ["AITBC node running", "Genesis wallet funded"],
+  "commands": [
+    {
+      "cmd": "wallet create",
+      "args": ["training-w1", "--password", "abc123"],
+      "exit_code": 0
+    },
+    {
+      "cmd": "wallet send",
+      "args": ["--password", "", "genesis", "training-w1", "100"],
+      "exit_code": 0
+    }
+  ],
+  "expected": {
+    "wallet_exists": {"type": "value", "value": true},
+    "balance": {"type": "value", "value": {"symbol": "AIT", "amount": 100}}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Transaction Hash Validation
+
+The stage runner automatically extracts transaction hashes from command output. Check results for `tx_hash` field:
+
+```python
+result = env.run_stage_from_json("/path/to/stage.json")
+for cmd_result in result['commands']:
+    if cmd_result.get('tx_hash'):
+        print(f"Transaction: {cmd_result['tx_hash']}")
+```
+
+## Messaging Configuration
+
+Messaging configuration is attempted but non-fatal. If it fails, the setup continues with a warning. Core blockchain operations don't require messaging.
+
+The messaging command uses the canonical form:
+```bash
+./aitbc-cli agent message --wallet <wallet_name> --password <password> --auth-token <token>
+```
+
+## Current Limitations & Workarounds
+
+### Funding Issues
+- Locally created wallets aren't automatically funded on-chain
+- Workaround: Use the pre-funded genesis wallet (999,999,890 AIT) for initial transactions
+- Example: `/opt/aitbc/aitbc-cli wallet send --password "" genesis <target> <amount>`
+
+### Genesis Initialization
+- The `--force` flag causes CLI errors
+- Workaround: Genesis block already exists, so initialization skips automatically
+
+### Messaging Configuration
+- May have CLI argument mismatches
+- Workaround: Messaging is optional; focus on core blockchain operations first
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Import Errors
+
+If you get "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aitbc'", ensure:
+1. Package is installed: `pip install -e /opt/aitbc`
+2. Or PYTHONPATH is set: `export PYTHONPATH=/opt/aitbc:$PYTHONPATH`
+
+### Funding Failures
+
+Check that:
+- Genesis wallet exists and is funded (pre-funded with 999,999,890 AIT)
+- AITBC node is running
+- Network connectivity is available
+
+### Messaging Warnings
+
+Messaging configuration is optional. If it fails, the setup continues with a warning. Check logs in `/var/log/aitbc/training-setup/training_setup.log` for details.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Deterministic Wallet Names:** Use `get_wallet_name(index)` for consistent wallet naming
+2. **Check Prerequisites First:** Always call `check_prerequisites()` before setup
+3. **Verify After Setup:** Call `verify_environment()` to confirm setup success
+4. **Handle Exceptions:** Use try/except blocks with specific exception types
+5. **Review Logs:** Check logs in `/var/log/aitbc/training-setup/` for debugging
+6. **Schema-Driven Execution:** Use JSON stage definitions for reproducible training
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Install the package or set `PYTHONPATH`.
+2. Run `python3 -m aitbc.training_setup.cli setup` to confirm the flow.
+3. If the messaging command fails, check the `token` value and wallet password matches the wallet you created.

+# Training Environment Setup Guide
+
+This guide explains how to set up the AITBC training environment using the Python-based setup system, which replaces the previous shell script approach.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Python-based training environment setup provides:
+- **Testability:** Can be unit tested and integrated tested
+- **Maintainability:** Python code is easier to debug and maintain
+- **Integration:** Uses existing AITBC patterns and utilities
+- **Type Safety:** Better error handling with exceptions
+- **IDE Support:** Autocomplete and type hints
+- **CI/CD Integration:** Easier to integrate with pytest-based CI
+- **Schema-Driven Execution:** JSON-based stage definitions for reproducible training
+- **Deterministic Wallet Naming:** Predictable wallet names for consistent testing
+- **Transaction Hash Validation:** Automatic extraction and validation of transaction hashes
+
+## Installation
+
+The training setup module is located in `aitbc/training_setup/`. To use it, you need to either install the AITBC package or add the directory to your Python path.
+
+**Option 1: Install the package (recommended):**
+```bash
+cd /opt/aitbc
+pip install -e .
+```
+
+**Option 2: Add to Python path:**
+```bash
+export PYTHONPATH="/opt/aitbc:$PYTHONPATH"
+```
+
+**Option 3: Use directly with path:**
+```bash
+cd /opt/aitbc
+python3 -c "import sys; sys.path.insert(0, '.'); from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment"
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Using the CLI
+
+```bash
+# Setup complete training environment
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli setup
+
+# Check prerequisites
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli check
+
+# Verify environment
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli verify
+
+# Fund a specific wallet
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli fund-wallet my-wallet --password my-password
+
+# Run a training stage from JSON schema
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli run-stage /path/to/stage.json
+```
+
+### Using Python API
+
+```python
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment
+
+# Create environment
+env = TrainingEnvironment(
+    aitbc_dir="/opt/aitbc",
+    log_dir="/var/log/aitbc/training-setup",
+    faucet_amount=1000,
+    genesis_allocation=10000,
+)
+
+# Setup full environment
+results = env.setup_full_environment()
+print(results)
+
+# Fund a specific wallet
+env.fund_training_wallet("training-wallet", "password123")
+
+# Configure messaging
+env.configure_messaging_auth("training-wallet", "password123")
+
+# Verify environment
+verification = env.verify_environment()
+print(verification)
+
+# Run a stage from JSON schema
+result = env.run_stage_from_json("/path/to/stage.json")
+print(result)
+
+# Get deterministic wallet name
+wallet_name = env.get_wallet_name(1)  # training-w1
+print(f"Wallet name: {wallet_name}")
+```
+
+### Using Pytest Fixtures
+
+For testing and CI/CD integration, use the pytest fixtures:
+
+```python
+import pytest
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment
+
+def test_training_setup(training_env_mock):
+    """Test with mocked environment"""
+    result = training_env_mock.fund_training_wallet("test-wallet")
+    assert result["status"] == "completed"
+
+@pytest.mark.integration
+def test_real_setup(training_env):
+    """Test with real environment"""
+    result = training_env.check_prerequisites()
+    assert result is True
+```
+
+## Schema-Driven Stage Execution
+
+The training setup supports schema-driven stage execution using JSON definitions. This approach provides:
+
+- **Reproducibility:** Each stage runs the same way with the same commands
+- **Validation:** Expected conditions are automatically validated
+- **Transaction Tracking:** Transaction hashes are extracted and logged
+- **Test Integration:** Stages can be run as pytest tests
+
+### Stage JSON Schema
+
+```json
+{
+  "stage": 1,
+  "title": "Foundation – Wallets & Accounts",
+  "prerequisites": [
+    "AITBC node running",
+    "Genesis wallet funded"
+  ],
+  "commands": [
+    {
+      "cmd": "wallet create",
+      "args": ["training-w1", "--password", "abc123"],
+      "exit_code": 0
+    },
+    {
+      "cmd": "wallet list",
+      "args": [],
+      "re": "training-w1"
+    },
+    {
+      "cmd": "wallet send",
+      "args": ["--password", "", "genesis", "training-w1", "100"],
+      "exit_code": 0
+    }
+  ],
+  "expected": {
+    "wallet_exists": {
+      "type": "value",
+      "value": true
+    },
+    "balance": {
+      "type": "value",
+      "value": {"symbol": "AIT", "amount": 100}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Running Stages
+
+**CLI:**
+```bash
+python -m aitbc.training_setup.cli run-stage /path/to/stage.json
+```
+
+**Python API:**
+```python
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment
+
+env = TrainingEnvironment()
+result = env.run_stage_from_json("/path/to/stage.json")
+print(result)
+```
+
+### Deterministic Wallet Naming
+
+The training environment uses deterministic wallet naming for consistency:
+
+```python
+# Get wallet names by index
+env = TrainingEnvironment(wallet_prefix="training-w")
+wallet1 = env.get_wallet_name(1)  # training-w1
+wallet2 = env.get_wallet_name(2)  # training-w2
+wallet3 = env.get_wallet_name(3)  # training-w3
+```
+
+This ensures predictable wallet names across different training sessions and environments.
+
+### Transaction Hash Validation
+
+The stage runner automatically extracts transaction hashes from command output:
+
+```python
+result = env.run_stage_from_json("/path/to/stage.json")
+for cmd_result in result['commands']:
+    if cmd_result.get('tx_hash'):
+        print(f"Transaction: {cmd_result['tx_hash']}")
+```
+
+## Components
+
+### TrainingEnvironment Class
+
+The main class that manages training environment setup.
+
+**Methods:**
+- `check_prerequisites()` - Verify AITBC CLI and node are available
+- `create_genesis_allocation()` - Create genesis wallet and initialize blockchain
+- `setup_faucet_wallet()` - Setup and fund faucet wallet
+- `fund_training_wallet(wallet_name, password)` - Fund a specific wallet
+- `generate_auth_token()` - Generate authentication token
+- `configure_messaging_auth(wallet_name, password)` - Configure messaging
+- `test_messaging_connectivity()` - Test messaging service
+- `verify_environment()` - Verify all components are configured
+- `setup_full_environment()` - Run complete setup process
+
+### Exceptions
+
+Custom exceptions for error handling:
+- `TrainingSetupError` - Base exception for setup errors
+- `FundingError` - Account funding failures
+- `MessagingError` - Messaging configuration failures
+- `FaucetError` - Faucet setup failures
+- `PrerequisitesError` - Prerequisites not met
+
+### Pytest Fixtures
+
+Available in `tests/conftest.py`:
+- `training_env` - Session-scoped real environment fixture
+- `training_env_mock` - Function-scoped mocked environment fixture
+- `mock_faucet_response` - Mock faucet API response
+- `training_stage_data` - Sample training stage data
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+The setup system respects standard AITBC environment variables:
+- `AITBC_DIR` - AITBC installation directory (default: `/opt/aitbc`)
+- `DATA_DIR` - Data directory
+- `LOG_DIR` - Log directory
+
+### Custom Parameters
+
+```python
+env = TrainingEnvironment(
+    aitbc_dir="/custom/path",           # AITBC directory
+    log_dir="/custom/logs",              # Log directory
+    faucet_amount=1000,                 # Tokens per faucet request
+    genesis_allocation=10000,           # Genesis allocation amount
+)
+```
+
+## Logging
+
+Logs are written to `/var/log/aitbc/training-setup/training_setup.log` by default.
+
+Log levels:
+- `INFO` - Normal operations
+- `WARNING` - Non-critical issues
+- `ERROR` - Failures that prevent setup completion
+
+## Migration from Shell Scripts
+
+The shell scripts in `/opt/aitbc/scripts/training/` are maintained for backward compatibility but are deprecated.
+
+**Migration Guide:**
+
+| Shell Script | Python Equivalent |
+|--------------|-------------------|
+| `setup_training_env.sh` | `TrainingEnvironment().setup_full_environment()` |
+| `fund_accounts.sh` | `TrainingEnvironment().fund_training_wallet()` |
+| `configure_messaging.sh` | `TrainingEnvironment().configure_messaging_auth()` |
+| `setup_faucet.sh` | Manual setup or use existing faucet service |
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+pytest tests/training/test_training_setup.py -v
+```
+
+### Integration Tests
+
+```bash
+pytest tests/training/test_training_setup.py -v -m integration
+```
+
+### With Mocked Environment
+
+```bash
+pytest tests/training/test_training_setup.py -v -k "mock"
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Prerequisites Not Met
+
+**Error:** `TrainingSetupError: AITBC CLI not found`
+
+**Solution:** Ensure AITBC is installed at the specified directory:
+```bash
+ls /opt/aitbc/aitbc-cli
+```
+
+### Funding Failures
+
+**Error:** `FundingError: Failed to fund wallet`
+
+**Solution:** Check that:
+- Genesis wallet exists and is funded (pre-funded with 999,999,890 AIT)
+- AITBC node is running
+- Network connectivity is available
+
+**Note:** Locally created wallets aren't automatically funded on-chain. The setup system uses the pre-funded genesis wallet as the funding source.
+
+### Messaging Failures
+
+**Error:** Messaging configuration warnings
+
+**Solution:** Messaging configuration is optional. If it fails, the setup continues with a warning. Core blockchain operations don't require messaging. Check logs in `/var/log/aitbc/training-setup/training_setup.log` for details.
+
+### Genesis Initialization Errors
+
+**Error:** CLI errors when using `--force` flag for genesis initialization
+
+**Solution:** Genesis block already exists, so initialization is automatically skipped. The setup system checks genesis wallet status instead of attempting initialization.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Mocked Environment for Tests:** Use `training_env_mock` fixture for unit tests
+2. **Check Prerequisites First:** Always call `check_prerequisites()` before setup
+3. **Verify After Setup:** Call `verify_environment()` to confirm setup success
+4. **Handle Exceptions:** Use try/except blocks with specific exception types
+5. **Use Session Fixture:** Use `training_env` for expensive setup operations
+6. **Log Review:** Check logs in `/var/log/aitbc/training-setup/` for debugging
+
+## Examples
+
+### Complete Setup Script
+
+```python
+#!/usr/bin/env python3
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment, TrainingSetupError
+
+def main():
+    try:
+        env = TrainingEnvironment()
+        
+        # Check prerequisites
+        env.check_prerequisites()
+        
+        # Setup full environment
+        results = env.setup_full_environment()
+        
+        # Verify setup
+        verification = env.verify_environment()
+        
+        print("Setup completed successfully")
+        print(f"Results: {results}")
+        print(f"Verification: {verification}")
+        
+    except TrainingSetupError as e:
+        print(f"Setup failed: {e}")
+        exit(1)
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    main()
+```
+
+### Selective Setup
+
+```python
+from aitbc.training_setup import TrainingEnvironment
+
+env = TrainingEnvironment()
+
+# Only setup funding
+env.create_genesis_allocation()
+env.setup_faucet_wallet()
+env.fund_training_wallet("training-wallet")
+
+# Only setup messaging
+env.configure_messaging_auth("training-wallet")
+env.test_messaging_connectivity()
+```
+
+### Test Fixture Usage
+
+```python
+import pytest
+
+def test_wallet_funding(training_env_mock):
+    """Test wallet funding with mocked environment"""
+    result = training_env_mock.fund_training_wallet("test-wallet")
+    assert result["status"] == "completed"
+    assert result["amount"] == 1000
+
+def test_messaging_setup(training_env_mock):
+    """Test messaging configuration"""
+    result = training_env_mock.configure_messaging_auth("test-wallet")
+    assert result["status"] == "completed"
+    assert "token_file" in result
+```
