What model are you using? I would expect a capable model to figure it out and try again.

Discord+Codex+Full duplex voice mode: who is paying? ๐Ÿคฃ I've set up the full duplex voice mode in Discord, I'm using codex native auth (I have the 5x plan, 100$/month). It works, but I couldn't find informations about the pricing of the voice mode, the included bundle etc. Just to be sure I don't receive extra billing somewhere. Any advice?

I am in the step to set up the gateway but when I open the dashboard on my browser the pairing is not working

#

like I have to access the gateway from my mac and approve my device right?

severe rover
#

Mac^^

wraith seal
#

Mac?

#

oh boy

#

let me triage the docs.

#

openclaw gateway health --url ws://127.0.0.1:18789

run this @severe rover

Error: gateway url override requires explicit credentials
Fix: pass --token *** --password *** gatewayToken in tools).

wraith seal
#

what's the password

#

or token

#

actually don't say it

severe rover
#

sorry! I dont know ๐Ÿ˜„

wraith seal
#

just append --token [TOKEN] or --password [PASSWORD]

#

your gateway token should be in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

severe rover
#

ok give me a sec

#

weird

#

I dont the the openclaw folder but I can have access to specific ones

#

how can I go to a folder directly from mac? ^^

wraith seal
#

dude, just ask codex

#

it's probably being heavily trained on OpenClaw info anyway

shadow granite
#

open iterm
cd ~/.openclaw
?

#

or finder

mint tulip
shadow granite
#

exactly, because Unix treats . in the start of files as hidden

#

for Prayer, try to run a openclaw doctor

wraith seal
#

yes im talking about windows

shadow granite
#

yeah uhuauhauha every OS except Window$ does that

wraith seal
#

literally everything does it

shadow granite
#

for windows, you need to Properties > Hidden
the dot on the start says nothing to Windows

severe rover
wraith seal
#

sorry

#

caps

severe rover

and then alot of skills i guess

no worries ^^

shadow granite
#

everything looks fine
If you are connected to some agent (codex, etc.), I recommend customize or disabling heartbeat for your agent
as you are exploring, discovering, you dont need a heartbeat now consuming your tokens

severe rover
#

the terminal froze

#

how can i disable heartbeat? ๐Ÿ™‚

shadow granite
#

edit ~/.openclaw/workspace/HEARTBEAT.md

#

I'm not being able to send a simple markdown header, because bot is blocking it hahaha

#

but put a h1 #

#

HEARTBEAT DISABLED, or something, without nothing on its body

#

dont remember if it's needed to gateway restart... if you see some Heartbeat checks on the Chat, it's enabled yet... just restart the gateway.

if not, you're done...

severe rover
#

and then just openclaw gateway right?

shadow granite
#

you just need openclaw gateway one time... you can also install it as a service

#

if you change something in config, etc., you need openclaw gateway restart

severe rover
#

ok I need to pair my device I am in the docs cheking out how to do it do I need tailscale?

shadow granite
#

are you stuck on login screen?

severe rover
#

yeah

shadow granite
#

if so, open a tab in iTerm and run
openclaw logs --follow --max-bytes 999999

#

then access openclaw again, and see what the log says

severe rover
#

iterm? ๐Ÿ˜„

shadow granite
#

terminal, sorry... i thought you was on Mac, not?

severe rover
#

yeah I am using the terminal i didnt know there is iterm ๐Ÿ˜„

shadow granite
#

yeah, I was a Mac user some years ago, and iTerm is way better than the default terminal

#

what login screen says, or logs says?

heyo, new to all this. my plan was(is) to run openclaw on my own hardware using ollama. and i kinda got it to talk to my ollama... but it just spits out giberish. im using qwen2.5-coder:14b cause chatgpt recommended that one. this is what i get when hatching the agent:

OpenClaw 2026.5.20 (e510042) โ€” Your task has been queued; your dignity has been deprecated.

NO other text. Do not include any backticks or '''json.

#

So 12GB of vram? And what OS?

gentle sable
#

windows host running ollama, and openclaw in windows guest vm

#

and yes 12gb vram

mighty rampart
#

I would first check that the model in ollama can answer a simple prompt. I donโ€™t speak Windows, does it have curl?

#

From internet ^^ and with your model but something like thatโ€ฆ or find any simple client like Pi Agent and just make sure ollama is working.

gentle sable
#

i can talk to the model just fine using the ollama client that comes with ollama. unless you want to ensure that the webinterface works?

mighty rampart
#

No. Just ollama, to rule that out. Thatโ€™s fine.

#

From there I would check the server logs for openclaw. Restart it and check if it is saying anything interesting.

#

Do you have a Claude or Codex subscription? If so fire that up and ask it. If not, ask Krill over in #1459642797895319552 or else ask web-based Google Gemini. It is quite good at debugging OC config.

#

What size context window? You may need to strip down SOUL.md and all the other markdown files that OC sends to the model.

gentle sable
#

no i dont have a subscription for anything. i will do this tomorrow as its past my bedtime. thank you though

# wary flint I'm not looking to start a "works for me" flame war but ... I am **still** on 4....

Ask your openclaw this: I want to update OpenClaw, but only after a practical risk check.

Please assess my current version -> latest/target version before recommending GO / WAIT / WAIT FOR PATCH / SKIP.

Check:

  • current installed CLI/gateway version and latest npm version
  • release age and skipped versions
  • official release notes for new features, fixes, breaking changes, migrations
  • GitHub issues/PRs for target-version regressions, especially gateway, sessions, cron, Discord/WhatsApp, plugins, memory/context, providers/models, auth/secrets, installer/update/data loss
  • community signals if available, including IsItStable and Discord #1459642797895319552/#updates chatter
  • whether reported issues affect my actual setup, not just raw issue counts

Classify findings:

  • decision blockers: target-version, high-blast-radius, relevant to my setup, not fixed in the same update path
  • non-blocking discomforts: recoverable annoyances or platform/provider paths I do not use
  • disregard: old/current-version bugs, unrelated platforms, already-fixed issues

Also list:

  • useful upside/opportunity from the update
  • breaking changes and required migrations
  • version-specific post-update checks only, not a generic smoke-test checklist

Output format:
Recommendation: GO / WAIT / WAIT FOR PATCH / SKIP โ€” short reason.

Then sections:

  1. Decision blockers
  2. Non-blocking discomforts
  3. Opportunity map
  4. Breaking changes
  5. Community/release scan
  6. Version-specific follow-ups

Yeah, I recognize that and had to tune the prompt a bit. Some models are trained by lawyers ๐Ÿ˜‰ . Best advice I can give, aks it about the worst case scenario for the blocker and how to recover from it.

Hey people or dear lobsters,

I want to install OpenClaw to my Raspberry Pi 3B+, in order to just reply some Whatsapp message automatically. I need some kind of AI to do it, becuase it needs to understand the context. It is not much work, like 10 message a day maybe less.

How viable it is to do that with OpenClaw or should I check alternatives such as PicoClaw. However, my concerns, they would probably not follow the security updates on OpenClaw as regular as I would expect them to do.

Thanks for the suggestions.

That still sucks. One thing I found was that you have to send them (claude/codex) to the official docs to get the latest information. And not rely on memory of the previous time they looked at it. That might be outdated. Another thing you can do is ask your bot for a manual on how to get a fresh install to your current state, I had mine include prompts to ask and code snippets. Anyway, hope the next upgrade is smooth for you

Subject: Slack Socket Mode connected but zero inbound events โ€” single agent on new GCP VM

Hi,

I'm running OpenClaw 2026.4.12 on a fresh GCP VM (Debian, e2-small, us-east1). I have a single agent (Isabella) configured with Slack Socket Mode. The gateway connects successfully but receives zero inbound message events.

What works:

โ€ข Socket Mode connects ([slack] socket mode connected in logs)
โ€ข Bot token and app token are valid
โ€ข openclaw channels status --probe shows works
โ€ข Bot shows as online in Slack (green dot)
โ€ข Outbound messages from the bot work

What doesn't work:

โ€ข No inbound events logged when messages are sent to the bot
โ€ข No response to DMs or @mentions in channels
โ€ข openclaw logs --follow shows no incoming message events

Environment:

โ€ข OpenClaw version: 2026.4.12
โ€ข OS: Debian GNU/Linux 12
โ€ข Node: v22.22.2
โ€ข Install method: openclaw onboard wizard
โ€ข Slack mode: Socket Mode
โ€ข Single agent setup (not multi-account)

Slack app config:

โ€ข Socket Mode: enabled
โ€ข Bot scopes: app_mentions:read, chat:write, im:history, im:read, im:write, channels:read, groups:read, users:read
โ€ข Event Subscriptions: message.channels, message.groups, message.im, message.mpim, app_mention
โ€ข App Home: messages_tab_enabled: true
โ€ข App reinstalled after all changes

What I've tried:

โ€ข Multiple gateway restarts
โ€ข Regenerated app token
โ€ข Reinstalled Slack app multiple times
โ€ข Removed all DM/group policy restrictions from config
โ€ข Verified bot is in the channel

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Happy to provide full logs or config.

Your Socket Mode connection itself seems healthy, so I donโ€™t think this is a token/auth issue anymore. The interesting part is that outbound messaging works perfectly while absolutely no inbound events are hitting the gateway logs.

Iโ€™ve seen setups where everything looked โ€œconnectedโ€ on the surface, but the gateway never actually attached the inbound event stream correctly after reinstalling the Slack app or regenerating tokens.
From your description though, this definitely feels solvable and more like an internal routing/event handling issue than a Slack configuration problem.

Yeah, that looks more like an issue from the provider's side, especially since youโ€™re using MiniMax directly.

A few things you should probably do first:

  1. Check MiniMaxโ€™s dashboard for RPM/TPM limits, because providers can adjust limits by account tier or usage level
  2. Try switching to another model temporarily and see if the cooldown disappears. That will tell you whether itโ€™s from MiniMax or your OpenClaw setup.

This is also one of the reaspn why I usually prefer routing agents through a unified API provider like AIsa, OpenRouter, or LiteLLM instead of relying on one provider directly. You can always try different models from one API provider, and even some that are way cheaper compared to official pricing. Check those few things and let's see if it's fixed

MissingAgentHarnessError: claude-cli is not registered only in Discord group chats (DMs work)

Hi! Hoping someone can help โ€” I'm stuck after a lot of troubleshooting.

Environment

  • OpenClaw: 2026.5.22 (a374c3a)
  • OS: macOS
  • Claude Code CLI: 2.1.81 at /usr/local/bin/claude
  • Auth: OAuth via openclaw models auth login --provider anthropic --method cli --set-default

Symptom

  • โœ… Discord DM with @mention โ†’ claude-cli harness resolves, response works perfectly
  • โŒ Discord group chat with @mention โ†’ MissingAgentHarnessError: Requested agent harness "claude-cli" is not registered.

Same bot, same gateway process, same session. Just DM works, group fails.

Log โ€” DM success

[agent/cli-backend] cli exec: provider=claude-cli model=sonnet trigger=user
[agent/cli-backend] claude live session start: provider=claude-cli model=claude-sonnet-4-6 activeSessions=1
[agent/cli-backend] claude live session turn: provider=claude-cli model=claude-sonnet-4-6 durationMs=35134

Log โ€” group chat failure

[diagnostic] message dispatch completed: channel=discord
  sessionId=unknown
  sessionKey=agent:main:discord:channel:1506164911011659957
  source=replyResolver
  outcome=error
  duration=8450ms
  error="MissingAgentHarnessError: Requested agent harness \"claude-cli\" is not registered."
[discord] discord message run failed: MissingAgentHarnessError: Requested agent harness "claude-cli" is not registered.

Note the source=replyResolver in the group case vs cli-backend in DM. Looks like a different code path.

Things I've tried (none fixed it)

  1. Removed duplicate agents.defaults.agentRuntime: { id: "claude-cli" } that got auto-added
  2. Added group:messaging to tools.allow
  3. Added explicit message, sessions_send to tools.allow
  4. tools.profile is already coding
  5. channels.discord.groupPolicy is open
  6. openclaw doctor reports no blocking issues (just gateway.controlUi.allowInsecureAuth=true warning, unrelated)
  7. openclaw update says already on latest (2026.5.22)

Relevant config

{
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "model": {
        "primary": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6",
        "fallbacks": ["anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5", ...]
      },
      "models": {
        "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6": { "agentRuntime": { "id": "claude-cli" } },
        // ...same for all anthropic models
      }
    }
  },
  "tools": {
    "profile": "coding",
    "allow": ["group:messaging", "message", "sessions_send"]
  },
  "auth": {
    "profiles": {
      "anthropic:claude-cli": { "provider": "claude-cli", "mode": "oauth" }
    }
  },
  "models": {
    "providers": {
      "anthropic": { "agentRuntime": { "id": "claude-cli" } }
    }
  },
  "channels": {
    "discord": { "groupPolicy": "open", "enabled": true }
  }
}

Any idea what replyResolver checks differently from cli-backend for harness registration? Or any config I'm missing for group chat routing?

Thanks!

mighty rampart
#

Probably better to ask the Krill bot over in #1459642797895319552 . You could also start Claude Code in your OpenClaw directory and ask it to look at the config and the source code to figure it out.

guys what is a pr?

restive sierra
# pliant basalt **`MissingAgentHarnessError: claude-cli is not registered` only in Discord group...

My agent and i have ran into issues like this a few times in the past, I had him write up how we fixed it in the past.

Yeah, this looks like a gateway config issue. The core problem is that group chats create non-main sessions with different session keys (agent:<id>:<channel>:group:<id> vs agent:<id>:main for DMs), and the harness registration/selection path differs between them.

The replyResolver path (groups) vs cli-backend path (DMs) confirms the routing divergence. For DMs, the main session already has the claude-cli harness pinned. For groups, a fresh non-main session is created and the harness lookup fails.

The fix should be ensuring agents.defaults.agentRuntime.id is explicitly set at the top level (not just nested under individual model entries). Their config has it under models.providers.anthropic.agentRuntime and agents.defaults.models["anthropic/..."].agentRuntime, but the group session path may not traverse those nested lookups the same way.

They should try:

{
"agents": {
"defaults": {
"agentRuntime": {
"id": "claude-cli"
}
}
}
}

As a top-level default rather than only per-model/per-provider. The DM works because it reuses an existing session that already has the harness pinned from a previous successful run, while groups create fresh sessions that need the default to resolve.

Looking for some tips โ€ฆ
Inconsistent sessions_spawn behavior in Azure Container Apps.

Setup:
โ€ข OpenClaw + SidU a365 plugin. Azure Container Apps, min/max replicas = 1.
โ€ข OpenClaw home dir mounted on Azure Files.
โ€ข Trying to mimic a working multi-agent research pipeline as skills. Main agent spawns a Planner subagent to create tasks, returns results to main, then main fans out to Researcher subagents.
Planner-only worked fine. Once I add the Researcher fan-out it gets inconsistent. Same input, three different outcomes:
1. Creates the run folder but never calls Planner.
2. Calls Planner but never spawns Researcher.
3. Finishes the whole job correctly.

Checked runs.json, no error.

Checked the container log stream and OpenClaw console logs, just a generic โ€œsubtask not startedโ€, no traceback.

Any pointers to where I can dig deeper to see whatโ€™s causing inconsistencies?

Note: Pinned to Openclaw version 5.2 I believe as I have not updated the plugin to the new SDK. I have another repo that does run the new SDK and on the 5.22 version but itโ€™s erroring on EmbeddedAttemptSessionTakeoverError. Believe there is a fix on the wayโ€ฆ

Have you asked your bot for the first part? Give it the parameters, how/where it's stored now and ask it to come up with a data ingestion plan. Include a "ask clarifying questions first" sentence in your prompt. Basically the same for the replies, but have a discussion first on what your boundaries and requirements are

Server Hostinger, I use the โ€œcheapest modelโ€ apparently to run all the messages

I want the most efficient option cus I process maybe under 500 messages a day

meaning 500 chats

OK, I checked their website and I'm not sure how far you can push it, since it's a managed openclaw setup. I have a file based project management system with a dashboard hosted on the machine itself. give me a sec

Damn.. can i use a managed openclaw setup or eventually i have to get a macmini

Can you ask you bot this?
Check what this Hostinger OpenClaw install can actually access:

  • whether file edits persist
  • whether shell/exec is available
  • whether custom skills/plugins can be installed
  • whether scheduled tasks/crons are available

WHAT IS UP with these DEVELOPERS?!

Via my agent in a new session:

`Started forging the updated config.
I checked session status first, per rule.
I tried to read the live openclaw.json, local docs and forge_write_edit.py.
The native hook relay failed again on all shell reads with Native hook relay unavailable.
Because of that, I could not verify the live 2026 config or safely generate a โ€œ100% compatibleโ€ file.
I stopped when you interrupted, before writing or attaching anything.

What I did learn from the old 4.23 config:

Old Jarvis was intentionally minimal profile + explicit allowlist.
Generic file mutation was denied: write, edit, apply_patch, file_write.
Work happened through read, exec, reviewed scripts and elevated approval when needed.
That matches your preference much better than Docker.
The right target is: keep generic writes denied, add a forge-only write wrapper and a forge-only smoke-test wrapper.

Blocker:

Native hook relay unavailable is still recurring after restart. It worked once, then failed again. So the PR fix either is not in this running build, did not stick to this resumed session or the gateway/native app pairing is still stale.

Next clean move:

Start a completely fresh Jarvis session after the gateway restart.
Have that fresh session read live openclaw.json.
Generate the config into forge/.
Verify JSON parse.
Attach the forged file.

I should not attach a guessed config and call it compatible. That would be theater, and we are already knee-deep enough in the machinery.`

Anyone running OpenClaw with sessions on Azure Files / SMB and hitting random EmbeddedAttemptSessionTakeoverError? According to Claude Code, the fence in sameSessionFileFingerprint compares mtimeNs/ctimeNs strictly, and SMB doesn't report stable nanoseconds, so I am getting false takeovers. Curious what others are doing (relax the check, move sessions to local disk, managed disk, or run sessions on container-local disk and mirror to the Azure share every ~15s via entrypoint)?

Hi I'm trying to install Openclaw I've never used it before and the tutorial videos I'm watching are more than a little confusing. I'm 22 the son of a carpenter and I don't understand some developer vocabulary that seems important. Could anyone recommend some videos to get me started.

anyone else getting "native hook relay unavailable" when. OpenClaw tries to run a command? using the latest released version with codex gpt5.5

my agent always truncated, how to fix?

#

Codex harness has been incredibly buggy, surprised this is being pushed as the default

Compaction just doesn't work - context grows large and agent starts throwing something went wrong and pretooluse hook errors. Always have to manually /new

Can't do any long tasks

How do we downgrade - it won't let me, something about binary being newer than the downgrade binary

I switched back to PI harness and things seem better

I'm moving to Hermes.

#

It already ingested the entirety of my OC install history, session files, config observations, and every zip archive of every build I ever killed.

#

Point: it spent all night learning my algo for what I've been attempting without the BS hiccups that boast "new features" minus the "by the way, it's broken because it's not as important to us as it is to the users".

For people getting stuck updating to 5.27. This is a minimal prompt for codex to get it in working order again. Used on my mac:

Use the local OpenClaw conventions if present. Install/update OpenClaw with the npm age gate removed for any OpenClaw-related npm/plugin update. Prefer canonical model refs like openai/gpt-5.5 / openai/gpt-5.4, not legacy openai-codex/* model names. Configure OpenAI/Codex routing as model=openai/gpt-5.5 through the Codex runtime using openai-codex OAuth if available. Install/refresh official runtime plugins, especially @openclaw/codex. Then run doctor, repair as needed, start/restart the gateway, and verify gateway status, health, plugin load, and model/runtime convergence.

Does anyone find that when they update it breaks their entire system? Is there any way to stop this? Iโ€™m a baby coder so it might be user error

hey all, qq (hopefully). Whats the easiest way of moving my openclaw setup from one machine to another? is it just running the curl install and then copy/pasting the .openclaw folder to the new machine?

# hushed summit How much is Hermes bot?

Hermes is free just like OpenClaw... All you need is to connect your AI models to Hermes, just like you did with OpenClaw

And I always suggest to use a unified API router when it comes to building agents and most especially if you're going to be switching models. I use AIsa (has some cheaper model pricing, and less latency issues or markup fee unlike openrouter).
So yeah, Hermes is free and opensourced like OpenClaw

hushed summit

Yeah I use open router. Like I said Iโ€™m a newbie and tech enthusiast so I will try when I get home

I heard harmes work only on vps

Before you do an upgrade ask your claw to analyze the release you are planning to upgrade to. Example: I want you to upgrade us to openclaw 2026.5.27 before you do please analyze whatโ€™s new, whatโ€™s fixed and what in the release might break our setup. If you identify risks that might break us, letโ€™s build a plan with step-by-step instructions on how to fix those including but not limited to running โ€œopenclaw doctor fixโ€. Might finds things and we discuss what could go wrong and what I might need to manually fix if the upgrade breaks hard enough that my claw canโ€™t do the fixes itself.

# hushed summit Oh duh that makes so much sense lmfao thank you

NP. One other tipโ€ฆtell your claw โ€œbefore you begin any upgrade, make a full backup of the ~/.openclaw directoryโ€ to ~/backups/โ€œ this way if an upgrade goes seriously sideways you can delete ~/.openclaw/ then un-tar the ~/backup/openclaw.MMDDYYY.tar.bz2 to restore you back to the current working version. Once you un-tar it youโ€™ll need to restart the gateway โ€œopenclaw gateway restartโ€. But this is a great way to quickly roll back to a known working version.

Well since thatโ€™s broken you donโ€™t really have much of a choice. Youโ€™ll need to get to the command prompt on that system. then run openclaw doctor and see what it tells you. Once you do that you can run openclaw doctor โ€”fix to fix anything it found followed by a openclaw gateway restart to restart the gateway then give a minute to fire up and see if your browser works again.

Hi. I'm trying to install Openclaw on my vps hetzner, and I own a domain. I'm installing via docker but final testing telegram doesn't connect or gateway problems appear. Could someone help me?

Would love feedback on best OpenClaw recent update that is running smoothly with Chrome browser... I haven't upgraded since early May. Tysm for your help

Thereโ€™s been a lot of upgrades.improvements and changes since early May so make sure you make a backup of your files first. Then ask your claw โ€œAnalyze the releases from openclaw 2026.5.x (whatever your version is) through 2026.5.27 and see what improvements and changes will be necessary to upgrade us to openclaw 2026.5.27. Thereโ€™s gonna be some changes to your openclaw.json needed. And youโ€™ll likely need to run openclaw doctor and openclaw doctor โ€”fix after the upgrade.

Having trouble after the update with even the 'read' toolcall. it constantly fails with missing path parameter. however the schema looks correct

{"name":"read",
"type":"object",
"arguments":{
"path":"test.md"
}
}

So is anyone else having this trouble?

In case there is another one like me who just updated from 5.26 to 5.27 using Docker on Windows and suddenly codex Oauth started malfunctioning.

There's a remarkably simple fix:

at your .openclaw\npm foder:
npm install @openclaw/codex@latest

spent half the day thinking I broke something. Turns out codex was not updated.

Are there any messaging apps that are specifically built for OpenClaw that you recommend? I like using OpenClaw but I find myself going back to the Claude app just because the UX โ€œfeelsโ€ better. Curious to hear recommendations and experiences

I am totally confused about the distinction between configuring my default model as "openai/gpt-5.5" versus "codex/gpt-5.5". I use the OAuth login with my OpenAI subscription. It seems to work fine most of the time, but my agent and doctor seem continually confused about what is right, if there's a difference, what it all means.

hey guys, i'm trying to use openclaw locally with "gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-UD-IQ4_XS.guff and running it on llama.cpp. I'm on linux with a 9070xt. It works ok running directly through llama.cpp but if i try to use this model via openclaw i get some weird behavior. If i ask small questions then the model reacts ok. But if i try to do anything more involved it just starts recursivly calling the session status tool until the context window is filled up and there's no way to stop it. I'm running both llama.cpp and openclaw in a separate OS user. Most likely i messed something up in the config but i cannot find it. the tool calls themselves cause an error that looks like this: โ‡„ res โœ— sessions.resolve 0ms errorCode=INVALID_REQUEST errorMessage=No session found: current conn=60f155f7โ€ฆ69ff id=5c64c299โ€ฆ4c45

#

idk if maybe i just picked too big of a model i'm totally inexperienced with these things
