Why Doctor?

OpenClaw runs as a local daemon. When it crashes — network hiccup, system wake, bad update — your AI assistant goes dark. You notice only when you try to use it.

Doctor watches the gateway for you. It detects failures, restarts the service automatically, and notifies you. No config, no babysitting.

Get Started

npm install -g openclaw-cli
openclaw-cli watch -d

That's it. OpenClaw CLI is now running in the background.

Core Commands

openclaw-cli watch            # Start monitoring (foreground)
openclaw-cli watch -d         # Start monitoring (background)
openclaw-cli unwatch          # Stop monitoring

openclaw-cli status           # Quick health check
openclaw-cli doctor           # Full diagnostics

Gateway Management

openclaw-cli gateway start
openclaw-cli gateway stop
openclaw-cli gateway restart
