openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix Memory wiki install error [1 participants]

Summary

openclaw wiki init and openclaw wiki status emit a Failed to read config error on OpenClaw 2026.4.8.

The wiki vault itself initializes and works correctly, but the Slack extension's legacyConfigRules crashes during config loading.

Error

Failed to read config at ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 't')
    at Object.get [as legacyConfigRules] (.../extensions/slack/contract-api.js:1:647)
    at resolvePluginDoctorContracts (.../config-DMMR1XE_.js:220:52)
    at listPluginDoctorLegacyConfigRules (.../config-DMMR1XE_.js:233:9)
    at resolveLegacyConfigForRead (.../config-DMMR1XE_.js:19138:82)
    at Object.loadConfig (.../config-DMMR1XE_.js:19203:29)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install OpenClaw 2026.4.8
2. Enable Slack channel in openclaw.json
3. Enable memory-wiki plugin in openclaw.json
4. Run openclaw wiki init

Expected Behavior

openclaw wiki init should complete without config read errors.

Actual Behavior

Config read fails with TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 't') in Slack extension's contract-api.js. Wiki vault initializes successfully despite the error.

Environment

• OpenClaw: 2026.4.8 (9ece252)
• OS: macOS (Darwin arm64)
• Node: v25.8.2
• Slack extension: enabled (socket mode)
• Memory wiki: enabled (isolated mode)

Workaround

The wiki vault works correctly despite the error. The error appears to be cosmetic — originating from the Slack extension's legacy config rules, not from memory-wiki itself.
