openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix Community tool: openclaw-watchdog (cross-platform self-healer) [1 participants]

Hey - built a community watchdog tool that goes a fair bit further than the reference implementation in the workspace tools folder.

Repo: https://github.com/simonlpaige/openclaw-watchdog

What it does:

• Monitors the gateway HTTP health endpoint and restarts it when it goes down
• Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux (uses Node's os module and fs.statfs, no PowerShell)
• Circuit breaker: won't restart more than 3 times in 15 minutes, then backs off and alerts
• Fix ladder: soft wait first, then gateway restart, then kill-port-and-start, then alert
• Tracks incidents in a JSONL log and summarizes top patterns every 100 incidents
• Self-tunes memory and disk alert thresholds based on whether they predicted real outages (purely empirical - just arithmetic on false positive rates)
• Notification hooks for Telegram, Discord, Slack, and generic POST webhooks
• Config file at ~/.openclaw-watchdog/config.json with documented keys

CLI: \
openclaw-watchdog check # one-shot health check openclaw-watchdog fix # check and auto-heal openclaw-watchdog watch # daemon mode openclaw-watchdog status # JSON status report openclaw-watchdog patterns # learned incident patterns openclaw-watchdog reset # clear circuit breaker after manual fix \\

Zero external deps. Pure Node stdlib. Node 18+. npm install -g works.

Would it make sense to link this from the docs, or would you want to pull it into a community/ folder in this repo? Happy to adjust anything that would make it fit better.
