# I Built an AI Doctor for My AI Agent
|
||||
|
||||
**TL;DR:** My AI agent kept crashing at 3am. So I built another AI to fix it.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Problem
|
||||
|
||||
I run [OpenClaw](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw), an AI agent framework, on a Mac Mini. It's great until it crashes at 3am and I wake up to a dead assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
Traditional watchdogs just restart the process. They don't understand *why* it crashed.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Solution: 4-Tier Self-Healing
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Level 1: Watchdog (180s) → Process dead? Restart.
|
||||
Level 2: Health Check (300s) → HTTP failing? Retry 3x.
|
||||
Level 3: Claude Doctor (30m) → AI diagnosis + autonomous fix 🧠
|
||||
Level 4: Discord Alert → Human escalation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### The Interesting Part: Level 3
|
||||
|
||||
When Levels 1-2 fail, the system launches **Claude Code** (Anthropic's CLI) in a tmux PTY session:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
tmux new-session -d -s emergency-recovery
|
||||
tmux send-keys "claude --dangerously-skip-permissions" Enter
|
||||
tmux send-keys "Gateway is down. Diagnose and fix." Enter
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Claude then:
|
||||
1. Runs `openclaw status`
|
||||
2. Reads system logs
|
||||
3. Identifies root cause (stale PID, port conflict, config error...)
|
||||
4. Executes fixes
|
||||
5. Verifies recovery
|
||||
|
||||
**All logged. All auditable.**
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Model
|
||||
|
||||
- Isolated tmux session (no main session access)
|
||||
- Read-only config access
|
||||
- 30-minute hard timeout
|
||||
- Cleanup trap prevents orphan processes
|
||||
- Level 4 watchdog monitors Level 3
|
||||
|
||||
## The Philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
> "If we trust AI to write code, why not trust it to fix infrastructure?"
|
||||
|
||||
The AI already knows how to diagnose problems — it does it every day when developers ask for help. We just gave it permission to act on its diagnosis.
|
||||
|
||||
## Results
|
||||
|
||||
- Recovery time: 25 seconds (vs 8+ hours waiting for human)
|
||||
- False positives: 0 (so far)
|
||||
- My sleep quality: Improved 🛌
|
||||
|
||||
