# Send Service Watchdog to your agent Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually. ## Fast path - Download the package from Yavira. - Extract it into a folder your agent can access. - Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder. ## Suggested prompts ### New install ```text I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete. ``` ### Upgrade existing ```text I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run. ``` ## Machine-readable fields ```json { "schemaVersion": "1.0", "item": { "slug": "service-watchdog", "name": "Service Watchdog", "source": "tencent", "type": "skill", "category": "通讯协作", "sourceUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/mariusfit/service-watchdog", "canonicalUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/mariusfit/service-watchdog", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw" }, "install": { "downloadUrl": "/downloads/service-watchdog", "sourceDownloadUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=service-watchdog", "sourcePlatform": "tencent", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw", "packageFormat": "ZIP package", "primaryDoc": "SKILL.md", "includedAssets": [ "SKILL.md", "watchdog.sh" ], "downloadMode": "redirect", "sourceHealth": { "source": "tencent", "status": "healthy", "reason": "direct_download_ok", "recommendedAction": "download", "checkedAt": "2026-04-30T16:55:25.780Z", "expiresAt": "2026-05-07T16:55:25.780Z", "httpStatus": 200, "finalUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=network", "contentType": "application/zip", "probeMethod": "head", "details": { "probeUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=network", "contentDisposition": "attachment; filename=\"network-1.0.0.zip\"", "redirectLocation": null, "bodySnippet": null }, "scope": "source", "summary": "Source download looks usable.", "detail": "Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this source.", "primaryActionLabel": "Download for OpenClaw", "primaryActionHref": "/downloads/service-watchdog" }, "validation": { "installChecklist": [ "Use the Yavira download entry.", "Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.", "Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets." ], "postInstallChecks": [ "Confirm the extracted package includes the expected docs or setup files.", "Validate the skill or prompts are available in your target agent workspace.", "Capture any manual follow-up steps the agent could not complete." ] } }, "links": { "detailUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog", "downloadUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/service-watchdog", "agentUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent", "manifestUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent.json", "briefUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent.md" } } ``` ## Documentation ### Service Watchdog Lightweight service and endpoint monitoring for self-hosted infrastructure. Checks HTTP endpoints, TCP ports, SSL certificate expiry, and DNS resolution — then reports status in a clean, chat-friendly format. ### What It Does HTTP Health Checks — GET/POST with expected status codes, response time tracking, content matching TCP Port Checks — Verify services are listening (databases, mail servers, game servers, etc.) SSL Certificate Monitoring — Days until expiry, issuer info, auto-warn thresholds DNS Resolution — Verify domains resolve correctly, detect DNS hijacking Smart Summaries — One-glance status for all your services, with trend data Alert Logic — Configurable thresholds, cooldowns, and severity levels to prevent alert fatigue ### 1. Create a watchlist Create watchdog.json in your workspace root: { "services": [ { "name": "Home Assistant", "type": "http", "url": "http://192.168.1.100:8123", "expect_status": 200, "timeout_ms": 5000 }, { "name": "Proxmox", "type": "https", "url": "https://proxmox.local:8006", "expect_status": 200, "ssl_warn_days": 14, "timeout_ms": 5000 }, { "name": "PostgreSQL", "type": "tcp", "host": "db.local", "port": 5432, "timeout_ms": 3000 }, { "name": "My Domain", "type": "dns", "domain": "example.com", "expect_ip": "93.184.216.34" } ], "defaults": { "timeout_ms": 5000, "ssl_warn_days": 14, "alert_cooldown_min": 30, "history_retention_days": 30 } } ### 2. Run a check bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh Output example: 🟢 Home Assistant — 200 OK (142ms) 🟢 Proxmox — 200 OK (89ms) | SSL: 47 days 🟢 PostgreSQL — port 5432 open (12ms) 🟢 My Domain — resolves to 93.184.216.34 ✓ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 4/4 healthy | avg response: 81ms | checked: 2026-02-24 16:30 UTC ### 3. Detailed report bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --report Shows trend data: uptime percentage, P95 response times, incident history. ### 4. JSON output (for cron integration) bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --json ### 5. Check SSL only bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --ssl-only ### 6. Alert summary (for messaging) bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --alerts-only Only outputs services that need attention (down, slow, SSL expiring). ### Cron Integration Add to your OpenClaw cron for continuous monitoring: Every 5 minutes (lightweight check): Run \`bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --json\` and report only if any service is unhealthy. Daily SSL report: Run \`bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh --ssl-only\` and report expiring certificates. ### Service types TypeRequired FieldsOptional Fieldshttp / httpsurlexpect_status, expect_body, method, headers, timeout_ms, ssl_warn_daystcphost, porttimeout_msdnsdomainexpect_ip, nameserver ### Global defaults FieldDefaultDescriptiontimeout_ms5000Request timeoutssl_warn_days14SSL expiry warning thresholdalert_cooldown_min30Min minutes between repeated alertshistory_retention_days30How long to keep check historyhistory_filewatchdog-history.csvPath for check history data ### How the Agent Should Use This When the user asks about service status, infrastructure health, or "are my services up?": Run bash skills/service-watchdog/watchdog.sh for a quick overview Run with --report for detailed trends and history Run with --alerts-only for just the problems Run with --ssl-only to check certificate status Run with --json when you need structured data for further analysis For proactive monitoring, run checks in cron jobs and only alert the user when something is wrong. ### Requirements curl (for HTTP/HTTPS checks) openssl (for SSL certificate checks) nc or ncat (for TCP port checks) — falls back to bash /dev/tcp if unavailable dig or nslookup (for DNS checks) — falls back to host command jq (for JSON config parsing) All standard on most Linux distributions. No external APIs or accounts needed. ## Trust - Source: tencent - Verification: Indexed source record - Publisher: mariusfit - Version: 1.0.0 ## Source health - Status: healthy - Source download looks usable. - Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this source. - Health scope: source - Reason: direct_download_ok - Checked at: 2026-04-30T16:55:25.780Z - Expires at: 2026-05-07T16:55:25.780Z - Recommended action: Download for OpenClaw ## Links - [Detail page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog) - [Send to Agent page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent) - [JSON manifest](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent.json) - [Markdown brief](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/service-watchdog/agent.md) - [Download page](https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/service-watchdog)
