OpenClaw Operations
Comprehensive reference for administering OpenClaw via CLI. Covers channels, agents, models, config, gateway, security, and maintenance.
Golden Rules
- Never edit
openclaw.jsondirectly. Useopenclaw config set/get/unsetor dedicated subcommands. - Always restart gateway after config changes:
openclaw gateway restart - Telegram accounts: NO
agentfield inside account config. Route viabindingsarray instead. - Telegram
streaming: must be string"off", not booleanfalse. - JSON values in
config setneed--strict-json. - Verify after every change. Run
openclaw statusor the relevant status command.
Quick Diagnostics
openclaw status # overview
openclaw status --deep # detailed
openclaw doctor # find problems
openclaw doctor --fix # auto-fix what it can
openclaw gateway health # gateway health check
openclaw security audit # security scan
openclaw security audit --deep --fix # deep scan + auto-fix
Deep Audit with Claude Code
Load the docs before turning it loose — the difference is night and day.
cd ~/.openclaw
claude
# "Read https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli — the full CLI reference.
# Now read the config and architecture pages too."
# Then: "Audit this workspace for security issues."
