# Send WatchClaw 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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. 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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### watchclaw

OpenClaw gateway watchdog — auto-recovery from bad config changes.

### What It Does

watchclaw monitors your OpenClaw gateway and automatically recovers from bad configurations:

Health polling — checks gateway HTTP endpoint every N seconds
Config change detection — detects uncommitted or new commits in your config repo
Auto-recovery — stashes uncommitted changes (U1) or reverts bad commits (U2) via git
Probation — validates stability after config changes before promoting to known-good
Pluggable alerts — iMessage, webhook, or custom command on failure/recovery

### Usage

# Start watching (background daemon)
watchclaw --config /path/to/watchclaw.conf start

# Start in foreground (for debugging)
watchclaw --config /path/to/watchclaw.conf start --foreground

# Check status
watchclaw --config /path/to/watchclaw.conf status

# Follow logs
watchclaw --config /path/to/watchclaw.conf logs -f

# Stop
watchclaw --config /path/to/watchclaw.conf stop

### Config

Create a .conf file (see watchclaw.conf.example):

GATEWAY_PORT=18790
GATEWAY_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.openclaw"
POLL_INTERVAL_SEC=10
HEALTH_TIMEOUT_SEC=5
GATEWAY_TLS=0              # Use https for health check
MAX_RETRIES=3
ALERT_HOOK="imsg"           # imsg | webhook | command | none
ALERT_IMSG_TO="user@me.com"
RESTART_MODE="native"       # native | docker

### Recovery Modes

ScenarioDetectionRecoveryUncommitted config change breaks gatewayHealth check fails + dirty openclaw.jsongit stash → restartBad commit breaks gatewayHealth check fails + new commitgit revert → restartConfig change during healthy operationHEAD ≠ known-good in HEALTHY stateEnter probation, monitor

### Docker Mode

For containerized OpenClaw (e.g., 飞书/Feishu bot):

RESTART_MODE="docker"
DOCKER_CONTAINER="openclaw-feishu"

### Requirements

bash 4+, git, curl
OpenClaw gateway config must be in a git repo
python3 or node for JSON validation
