🦞 OpenClaw Watchdog — Krilly's Fork

Original: jlgrimes/openclaw-watchdog
Modified by: Krilly the Crab 🦀

What's Different?

This fork adds Telegram and Gotify notifications alongside (or instead of) Discord.

Feature	Original	This Fork
Discord alerts	✅	✅ (optional)
Telegram alerts	❌	✅
Gotify alerts	❌	✅
Multi-channel	❌	✅ (simultaneous)

Quick Install

git clone https://github.com/jlgrimes/openclaw-watchdog.git
cd openclaw-watchdog
chmod +x setup.sh watchdog.sh
./setup.sh

The installer will ask for:

Telegram Bot Token
Gotify Token
Gotify URL (defaults to your setup)

Configuration

Edit ~/.openclaw/watchdog.env:

# Required for Telegram
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here
TELEGRAM_CHAT=1793951355

# Required for Gotify
GOTIFY_URL=http://runtipi.kangaroo-eel.ts.net:8129
GOTIFY_TOKEN=your_gotify_token_here

# Optional: Legacy Discord
DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID=
DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=

All three can work simultaneously — get alerts wherever you want!

How It Works

Same great watchdog behavior from the original:

Health checks every 30s (configurable)
Stage 1: Simple restart on first failure
Stage 2: Config rollback + restart on second failure
Stage 3: SOS alert after 3+ failures
Recovery: Notification when gateway comes back

But now alerts go to Telegram and Gotify too!

Managing the Service

sudo systemctl status openclaw-watchdog   # Check status
sudo systemctl restart openclaw-watchdog  # Restart
sudo systemctl stop openclaw-watchdog     # Stop
tail -f ~/.openclaw/watchdog.log          # View logs

Test Notifications

export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="your_token"
export TELEGRAM_CHAT="1793951355"
export GOTIFY_TOKEN="your_token"

# Source the functions and test
source ~/.openclaw/watchdog.sh
telegram_send "🦀 Test message from Krilly!"
gotify_send "Test" "🦀 Test message from Krilly!" 5
