Examples
- Interactive prompts (like keychain/OAuth fixes) only run when stdin is a TTY and
--non-interactiveis not set. Headless runs (cron, Telegram, no terminal) will skip prompts. --fix(alias for--repair) writes a backup to~/.openclaw/openclaw.json.bakand drops unknown config keys, listing each removal.- State integrity checks now detect orphan transcript files in the sessions directory and can archive them as
.deleted.<timestamp>to reclaim space safely. - Doctor includes a memory-search readiness check and can recommend
openclaw configure --section modelwhen embedding credentials are missing. - If sandbox mode is enabled but Docker is unavailable, doctor reports a high-signal warning with remediation (
install Dockeroropenclaw config set agents.defaults.sandbox.mode off).
macOS: launchctl env overrides
If you previously ran launchctl setenv OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN ... (or ...PASSWORD), that value overrides your config file and can cause persistent “unauthorized” errors.
