你这份分析方向挺接近了,但这里有个关键点需要纠正/补全:

1) 60s 不是 “Discord 发送需要 60s”,而是 subagent announce 调用 Gateway 的默认超时

你日志里的:

... direct announce agent call ... gateway timeout after 60000ms

对应的是网关在做 announce 投递 时,会发起一次 callGateway(method="agent", expectFinal=true) 的调用,这个调用 默认超时就是 60,000ms。这跟 Discord API 本身不一定有关(Discord 正常发消息不该拖到 60s)。

这个 60s 是可配置的(已在源码里验证过),配置键是:

{
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      subagents: {
#
        announceTimeoutMs: 180000, // 例如改成 180s
      },
    },
  },
}

改完记得重启 gateway。这样可以直接消掉你看到的 gateway timeout after 60000ms 这类 announce 超时重试。

(目前文档里没明显写这个键,所以你才会以为是“隐藏的 timeout bug”。)

2) Cron 投递到 Discord:一定要同时配 delivery.to,而且要带前缀

Cron 的 delivery 目标格式在文档里强调过:Slack/Discord 要用 channel:<id> / user:<id> 这种前缀,不要裸数字。

例如:

#
openclaw cron add \
  --session isolated \
  --message "..." \
  --announce \
  --channel discord \
  --to "channel:123456789012345678"

只写 delivery.channel="discord" 但没写 delivery.to 时,会回退到“last route”,结果经常不是你以为的 Discord 频道。

文档: https://docs.openclaw.ai/automation/cron-jobs

3) 先把 “Discord 出站能不能发” 单独验证掉(排除权限/配置问题)

在跑 cron 之前,建议直接手动发一条消息测试出站是否正常:

#
openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:YOUR_CHANNEL_ID --message "test"

如果这条都发不出去,那问题就不是 cron/announce 超时,而是 Discord bot token、bot 是否在服务器里、频道权限(Send Messages / View Channel)、或目标 channelId 写错。

参考: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord
CLI 示例: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/message

4) 关于 “delivered: true 但没消息”

bestEffort: true 的语义是“投递失败也别让任务失败”,它不会让 Discord magically 成功;而且它确实会让 run 记录看起来更“成功”,从而掩盖真实投递错误——所以你看到“run 显示 delivered,但频道没收到”在当前实现里是可能发生的。


如果你愿意把这件事整理成 GitHub issue,建议附上这三样,维护者会更容易定位:

  1. openclaw --version
  2. 该 cron job 的完整 JSON(尤其 delivery 部分)
#
  1. gateway 日志里包含 direct announce agent call timeout 的那段上下文(前后各几十行)

要不要你先贴一下:你 cron job 当前的 delivery 配置(channel/to/bestEffort/accountId/threadId)长什么样?我可以帮你对照一下是否触发了 fallback / 目标格式问题。

all cron jobs failed.
I asked my bot to build a discord server for communication and migrated from TG to discord.
Then today all cron jobs failed to deliver but the deliver status shows Delivered?

waxen iceBOT
#

这类“cron 显示 delivered,但 Discord 没消息”的情况,在从 TG 迁到 Discord 时最常见的不是“Discord 真的要 >60s 才能发出去”,而是下面这几件事叠加导致的:

先确认 3 个点(按这个顺序排)

0) 版本(很重要)

先贴一下:

openclaw --version

1) 你的 cron 是否真的指定了 Discord 目标delivery.to + 前缀)

Cron 的 announce 投递到 Discord 必须有 delivery.to,而且 Discord/Slack 这类目标要带前缀,典型是:

  • channel:<channelId>
  • user:<userId>

如果你只有:

  • delivery.mode="announce"
#
  • delivery.channel="discord"
    没有 delivery.to(或 to 是裸数字 / 没有 channel: 前缀)

那它会 fallback 到 “last route”,结果经常不是你以为的那个 Discord 频道,表现就是“看起来 delivered,但频道没收到”。

文档在这里: https://docs.openclaw.ai/automation/cron-jobs

2) 先把 Discord 出站能力单独测通(排除权限/配置问题)

在跑 cron 前,先直接手动发一条:

openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:YOUR_CHANNEL_ID --message "cron test"

如果这条都发不出去,那 cron 再怎么配都不会工作——问题会在 Discord bot token / bot 是否进了服务器 / 频道权限(Send Messages / View Channel)/ channelId 写错等。

CLI 示例: https://docs.openclaw.ai/cli/message

#

Discord 配置/权限排查: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord

3) 你日志里的 60s timeout:是 subagent announce RPC 默认 60,000ms,可调

你看到的:

gateway timeout after 60000ms

这是“announce 阶段调用 gateway 的 agent 方法”的默认超时,不是 Discord API 的发送耗时。可以在配置里调大:

{
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      subagents: {
        announceTimeoutMs: 180000
      }
    }
#
  }
}

改完重启 gateway,再测一次。


为了快速定位:请你贴这两段输出

  1. 任选一个 job:
openclaw cron runs --id <jobId> --limit 5
  1. 同时贴一下你这个 job 的 delivery 配置(至少:mode/channel/to/bestEffort/accountId/threadId 这几项;直接从 jobs.json 或你创建 job 的命令里复制出来也行)。
#

有了 delivery.to 是否正确 + openclaw message send 是否能发通 + 是否需要调 announceTimeoutMs,基本就能把原因锁死。

GitHub Issue 信息:

  1. openclaw --version: 2026.3.7

  2. Morning Brief cron job delivery 配置:
    {
    "id": "f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547",

    "delivery": {
    "mode": "announce",
    "channel": "discord",
    "to": "channel:14802630610583553",
    "bestEffort": true
    }
    }

  3. Gateway 日志 (recent):

    2026-03-10T19:50:27.831+10:00 [reload] config change applied (dynamic reads: agents.defaults.subagents.announceTimeoutMs)

(之前的 timeout 日志已失效,现在用的是 180s)

waxen iceBOT
#

有了你补充的 3 点信息之后,情况其实变得更“奇怪”也更好定位了:

  • 你已经把 agents.defaults.subagents.announceTimeoutMs 调到 180s,并且 gateway 日志确认热加载生效了。
  • cron job 的 delivery 也写对了(channel: "discord" + to: "channel:1480..." + bestEffort: true)。
  • 版本是 2026.3.7(够新)。

2026.3.7 的 cron delivery 实现里deliveryStatus: "delivered" 基本等价于“确实走了 Discord outbound adapter,且发送调用成功了”。所以如果 Discord 里完全看不到消息,最常见的就只剩下面几种解释:

1) 其实发出去了,但你看的位置不对(尤其是 Forum / Media channel)

如果 1480263061058355342Forum channel(论坛频道)或 Media channel,Discord 不会在父频道里出现“普通消息”,而是会 创建一个 thread/post。你需要去看:

  • 该 forum 里有没有新出现的帖子(thread)
  • 或者是否被自动归档/折叠导致你没注意到

(OpenClaw 文档里也专门提到:forum/media 只能以 thread post 的形式接收消息。)

2) 目标 channelId 不是“可发消息的文本频道”

有时大家会不小心复制成:

#
  • category id
  • voice channel id
  • stage channel id
    这类是不能发消息的。按理会报错,但你开了 bestEffort: true,错误可能被吞掉,run 依然是 ok。

最直接的验证方式就是下面这个。

3) 先用 CLI 对同一个 target 做一次“裸发送”验证(强烈建议)

请你在跑 cron 之前,先执行:

openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "test from cli"
  • 如果这条也看不到消息:那就不是 cron 的问题,而是 Discord bot 权限/频道类型/ID 问题(或发到 forum thread 里了)。
  • 如果这条能看到消息:那就说明 Discord 出站没问题,cron 这边要看 run 的实际输出/是否被抑制。
#

4) 请贴一条最新的 run 记录(看 outputText 才能判断是否“实际上没内容可投递”)

你已经准备 GitHub issue 了,下一步最关键的是补上:

openclaw cron runs --id f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 --limit 1

我主要想看里面这几项(不同版本字段名略有差异):

  • outputText / summary(是不是 NO_REPLY、空、或只有“on it…”这类会被 cron 抑制的中间话)
  • deliveryAttempteddelivered
  • deliveryError(如果有)

把这两段(openclaw message send ... 的结果 + 最新 cron runs 那条 JSON)贴出来,基本就能 100% 锁定:是 forum/thread 误解、channelId 类型不对、权限问题,还是 delivery 状态确实存在不一致需要报 bug。

thin jackal
#

结论确认:
✅ CLI 发送到 Discord → 成功收到
❌ Cron announce → 失败(没收到)

waxen iceBOT
#

很好,这一步把范围一下子缩小了:

  • openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 ... 能收到
    → 说明 token / bot 权限 / channelId / Discord 出站本身都没问题

所以现在就只剩两类问题了:cron 实际没有投递内容,或 cron 投递走了别的“位置/形态”(thread/forum post),或者 cron 侧记录/状态有 bug。

现在最关键:看 cron run 记录里到底写了什么

请贴一条最新 run(最好先手动 force 一次,避免等调度):

openclaw cron run f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 --force
openclaw cron runs --id f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 --limit 3

我主要看这几个字段(cron runs 输出里一般都有):

  • delivered / deliveryStatus
#
  • deliveryError(如果有,这个基本直接给出原因)
  • summary(是不是空/很短/类似“on it …”被抑制/或 NO_REPLY
  • sessionKey(用于判断是否被路由到 thread)

最常见的“看不到”的真实原因(但 delivered 可能是 true)

  1. 发到 Thread 里了:如果那个 channel 是 forum/media,或者 session 里带了 threadId,cron 会投递成 thread post / thread reply。你会觉得“频道里没消息”,但 thread 里有。
    你可以在 Discord 客户端里点频道的 “Threads/帖子” 列表看看,或直接用搜索搜关键字。

  2. cron 输出其实是 NO_REPLY / 空内容:这种情况下 cron 可能会把 run 记成 ok(甚至某些路径下 delivered=true),但不会真的发消息。


你已经具备 GitHub issue 的基础信息了;只要再补上上面那段 openclaw cron runs ... 的实际输出(尤其 deliveryError / summary),这个问题基本就能定性:是路由到 thread、是被内容抑制、还是 delivery 状态确实不一致需要修。

delivered: true
deliveryStatus: "delivered"

但消息没收到。这是 confirm 的 bug。


my bot message above.

he's fixated on believing this is a gateway bug.... (model is codex 5.3 btw not some dumb models)

But before we migrated from Telegram to discord. Cron jobs worked perfectly

waxen iceBOT
#

你这条 run 记录其实给了一个非常强的信号:如果 delivered: true 真的是由 gateway 写入的(不是你 bot 自己推断的),那按实现它几乎等价于 “Discord API 发送成功并拿到了结果” ——也就是说,那条内容理论上“在 Discord 某个位置一定存在”。

所以现在与其直接定性为 gateway bug,更像是下面两种情况之一(而且都很常见):

A) 其实发到“线程/帖子”里了,你在频道主时间线看不到

  • 如果 channel:1480263061058355342Forum / Media channel,Discord 不接收普通消息,会变成 新帖子(thread)
  • 或者 gateway 在投递时携带了 threadId,导致消息进了某个 thread(你没 follow 就像“没收到”)。

最简单的自证方法:在 Discord 里全服搜索 TEST_AFTER_TIMEOUT_FIX(搜索会包含 threads/帖子)。
如果搜得到,就不是“没发”,而是“发到 thread 里/你没看到”。

B) 消息被服务器的 AutoMod / 机器人秒删

你 CLI 手动发能看到,不代表 cron 发也能长期存在;有些规则会按“来源/格式/频率”删消息。
同样用 Discord 搜索 + 查看审核日志/删除提示能确认。


#

另外:你 bot 的“推理”别太信

你贴的 run JSON 里清楚写着:

  • model: "gemini-2.5-flash-lite"
  • provider: "google"

这跟你说的 “codex 5.3” 对不上,说明你 bot 在总结/归因时已经开始串台了。后面排查请以 openclaw cron runs 的原始输出gateway logs 为准。


下一步我需要你补两条“硬证据”(就能直接进 GitHub issue 了)

  1. 直接从 CLI 贴原始输出(不要让 bot 转述/裁剪):
openclaw cron runs --id 483cb204-238f-42b8-bc0c-c323d8661775 --limit 5
  1. 跑一次之后抓 gateway 日志里与这次投递相关的几行(会出现 discord 的 channelId / threadId / messageId 或错误):
#
openclaw logs --limit 300

如果你同时做了 “Discord 搜索 TEST_AFTER_TIMEOUT_FIX 仍然完全找不到”,那基本就能 100% 证明是 delivery 状态写错/投递丢失,GitHub issue 也会非常有杀伤力。

OK,既然你已经确认:

  • openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 ... 能正常到达
  • 但 cron deliveryStatus: delivered 仍“看不到”

那现在不要再靠你 bot 的转述了——用 OpenClaw 自己的 Discord API 读回/搜索,直接把“到底发到哪了”钉死。下面这套命令能在 2 分钟内把争论终结。

1) 先确认这个 channel 到底是什么类型(Text / Forum / Thread / Category)

openclaw message channel info --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342

如果是 Forum/Media,消息会变成“帖子/线程”,你在频道消息流里不一定会看到“普通消息”。

2) 强制跑一次 cron,然后立刻用 API 读频道最近消息

#
openclaw cron run 483cb204-238f-42b8-bc0c-c323d8661775 --force
openclaw cron runs --id 483cb204-238f-42b8-bc0c-c323d8661775 --limit 1
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 20

期望结果:

  • 如果 cron 真的投递成功,你应该能在 message read 的输出里看到包含 TEST_AFTER_TIMEOUT_FIX 的那条(或它作为 forum 帖子的 starter message)。

3) 如果 read 里没看到:用 Discord 搜索把 threads 也一起扫掉

你需要 guild id(Discord 开发者模式复制,或从 channel info 输出里拿到):

openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id <GUILD_ID> --query "TEST_AFTER_TIMEOUT_FIX" --limit 10

如果 search 能搜到但你“肉眼没看到”,那就是发到 thread/forum post/别的 channel 里了(search 会把命中的 channel/message 信息带出来)。

#

4) 只有当满足这个条件,才算“confirmed gateway bug”

  • openclaw cron runs 显示 delivered: true
  • openclaw message read + openclaw message search 都找不到该内容
  • 并且 openclaw logs --limit 300 里也没有 “message deleted/forbidden/missing access” 之类线索

到那一步,这就是非常硬的 bug 证据,GitHub issue 会很好修。

你愿意的话,把上面 1/2/3 三个命令的输出(可以打码)贴出来,我可以帮你判断:是 thread/forum 误会、是删消息、还是 delivery 状态真的写错。

下面是一段你可以直接丢给 本地 Codex CLI(例如 codex --yolo "<paste>")的“排障任务提示词”。它会引导 Codex 先用 运行时证据 定位消息到底去哪了(频道 / thread / 被删),再去 源码里 找到为什么 cron runs 会写 delivered: true

你可以把其中的 <...> 按你的实际值替换(jobId、channelId、guildId)。


Codex CLI Prompt(复制粘贴即可)

You are a debugging assistant running locally with shell access.

Context:

  • OpenClaw version: 2026.3.7
  • Problem: cron jobs with delivery.mode="announce", delivery.channel="discord", delivery.to="channel:1480263061058355342" show delivered: true and deliveryStatus: "delivered" in openclaw cron runs, but no message appears in Discord.
  • Manual outbound works: openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "test" succeeds and is visible.
  • Announce timeout was increased and applied: agents.defaults.subagents.announceTimeoutMs=180000 (reload confirmed).
  • We need to find where delivery goes wrong, or why delivered is marked true without an actual Discord message.
#

Goal:

  1. Prove where the cron delivery actually went (channel vs thread vs forum post vs deleted).
  2. If it truly didn’t create a Discord message, identify the code path that sets delivered: true and propose a fix (or at least a precise bug report with evidence).

Rules:

  • Do NOT print secrets (tokens, full config). Redact IDs if needed.
  • Prefer read-only / diagnostic commands first. If you think code changes are needed, propose a minimal patch + where to add logs, but don’t commit unless asked.
  • Produce a final “Issue-ready summary” with exact steps + outputs to attach.

Steps:

A) Runtime verification (no code yet)

  1. Identify Discord channel type and guild id:
    • Run:
      • openclaw message channel info --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342
    • Capture whether it’s Text / Forum / Media / Thread, and any guildId/parent info.
#
  1. Reproduce with a unique marker string:

    • Choose a marker like CRON_DISCORD_PROBE_<unix>_<rand> and run:
      • openclaw cron run <JOB_ID> --force
      • openclaw cron runs --id <JOB_ID> --limit 5
    • If you don’t know a good JOB_ID, list jobs:
      • openclaw cron list
    • Identify the run entry that corresponds to the probe and capture its JSON (especially: delivered, deliveryStatus, deliveryError, sessionKey, sessionId, summary).
  2. Read the Discord channel history via API (not the UI):

    • openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 50
    • Check if the marker string appears.
  3. If it’s not in channel history, check threads and search:

    • Get guild id from step 1, then:
      • openclaw message thread list --channel discord --guild-id <GUILD_ID> --channel-id 1480263061058355342 --include-archived --limit 50
      • openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id <GUILD_ID> --query "CRON_DISCORD_PROBE_" --limit 10 --channel-id 1480263061058355342
    • If search returns hits in other channels/threads, note exactly where.
#
  1. Check gateway logs around the run:
    • openclaw logs --limit 400
    • Extract lines mentioning: cron delivery, discord send, thread id, message id, errors (forbidden/missing access/deleted).

B) If runtime evidence shows “delivered true” but API read/search find NOTHING
Now treat as a bug candidate.

  1. Locate where cron sets delivered/deliveryStatus:

    • In the OpenClaw repo, inspect:
      • src/cron/isolated-agent/delivery-dispatch.ts
      • src/infra/outbound/deliver.ts
      • Discord send code: src/discord/send.*.ts
    • Answer:
      • What does delivered: true concretely mean? (e.g., results length > 0; message id returned)
      • Under what conditions could it be true without a persisted Discord message?
  2. Add minimal diagnostic logging (propose patch only; don’t commit):

#
  • Add logs around the outbound send to print:
    • channel, to, accountId, threadId, and the returned Discord message id(s) if available.
    • Suggest the exact log locations and what to log.
  1. Produce an Issue-ready report:
    • Include:
      • OpenClaw version, OS, channel type
      • job JSON (redacted)
      • cron run entry (full JSON)
      • outputs of message read, message search, thread list
      • relevant openclaw logs snippet
    • Provide a clear “Expected vs Actual” and “Why it’s a bug”.

Deliverables:

  • A short conclusion: “message went to X (thread/forum/deleted)” OR “confirmed mismatch: delivered=true but no message id exists”
  • A minimal reproduction checklist
  • If code-level issue: suspected function(s) and a proposed fix direction
#

如果你愿意,我也可以把上面 prompt 进一步“定制化”(把 <JOB_ID> / <GUILD_ID> / marker 格式写死),你只要把你实际的 Discord jobId(不是 channelId)贴一下就行。

My bot just keeps telling its a gateway bug? Is it actually a common bug? Or maybe I have multiple gateway routing that i didn't know which could result in this? Now the previous TG config (used to work before 3.8 update and Discord migration) is not even working correctly now.

waxen iceBOT
#

It’s not a common/known “cron says delivered but Discord got nothing” bug in the sense of “everyone hits this”. In current code, delivered: true is supposed to mean the outbound adapter reported a successful send — so when you see “delivered” + nothing shows up, it’s usually one of these real-world gotchas:

1) You’re talking to / looking at two different Gateway instances (very common)

This creates exactly the kind of “CLI send works / cron doesn’t / old TG stopped” confusion.

How to confirm quickly:

  • Run and paste (redact tokens/hosts):
    openclaw status --all
    openclaw gateway status
    
  • On the machine, check if you have >1 gateway process:
    pgrep -af openclaw
    

Things to look for:

  • Config (cli) vs Config (service) mismatch (FAQ calls this out).
#
  • Two gateways running (service + a foreground openclaw gateway run, or VPS + local both active).
  • Cron runs/job store belongs to one gateway, while you’re checking another.

If this is the issue, the fix is: make sure exactly one gateway is running the schedule, and restart the service after fixing config.

2) The message went to a thread/forum post, not the channel timeline

Discord forum/media channels only accept thread posts; or a stale threadId can route into a thread you’re not watching.

Your “CLI send succeeded” doesn’t eliminate this — CLI may post top-level, cron may be replying into a thread.

Use API truth, not eyeballing the UI:

openclaw message channel info --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 50
openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id <GUILD_ID> --query "TEST_AFTER_TIMEOUT_FIX" --limit 10 --channel-id 1480263061058355342
openclaw message thread list --channel discord --guild-id <GUILD_ID> --channel-id 1480263061058355342 --include-archived --limit 50
#

3) Telegram “used to work” but now doesn’t: treat that as a config/runtime mismatch, not a Discord-only bug

Before assuming a gateway delivery bug, sanity-check outbound for Telegram via the same gateway process:

openclaw message send --channel telegram --target <the exact `to` you use in cron> --message "tg outbound probe"

If this fails too, it strongly points back to #1 (wrong gateway instance / wrong service config) or a broken channel config — not cron/discord logic.


What I need from you to call it a real Gateway bug

If you can post redacted output of:

  1. openclaw status --all (especially the “Config (cli) vs (service)” section)
  2. openclaw gateway status
  3. openclaw cron runs --id <one failing discord job> --limit 3
  4. openclaw logs --limit 300 right after a forced run
#

…then we can definitively say “multi-gateway/config mismatch” vs “thread routing” vs “true delivered-flag bug”.

Right now, with both Discord and Telegram behaving oddly after the migration window, multi-gateway / config mismatch is the most plausible and the most common.

Actual: Message never appears, but cron shows delivered: true
Error in logs: Unknown Channel

waxen iceBOT
#

这条新证据其实把“是不是 gateway bug”从玄学拉回到可验证的具体原因了:

Unknown Channel

这几乎可以确定是 Discord API error 10003(Unknown Channel),含义是:当前用于发送的那个 Discord bot token 视角里,这个 channelId 不存在。最常见的原因不是 cron 本身,而是:

  • cron 投递时用的 Discord 账号/token 跟你 CLI 测试时用的不是同一个
    (不同 bot、不同 accountId、或 service/cli 配置不一致)
  • 或者投递的 实际 channelId 不是你以为的 148026…(例如 job 里有别的 to/旧配置残留)

而你已经确认:

  • 同一个 channel:1480263061058355342 用 CLI 能发、能读历史
    => channelId 本身没错,至少有一个 bot/token 对它是有权限/可见的。
    => cron 用到的 token 不是那个。

#

这不是“常见的 cron delivered=true bug”,更像是“service/cli 配置不一致 or 多 Discord 账户选错”

请你做两件事(这两步能 90% 直接结案):

1) 贴 openclaw status --allConfig (cli) vs Config (service) 的那段

(可以打码,只要能看出 discord token/账号来源是否一致)

FAQ 里专门提到这种情况会导致“CLI 正常、后台服务行为完全不同”。

2) 明确 cron job 投递用哪个 Discord account(避免拿错 token)

cron 的 isolated delivery 是支持 --account 的(会写到 delivery.accountId)。你可以对这条 job 强制指定:

openclaw cron edit f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 \
  --announce --channel discord --to "channel:1480263061058355342" \
  --account <THE_ACCOUNT_ID_THAT_WORKS>
#

<THE_ACCOUNT_ID_THAT_WORKS> 是你 channels.discord.accounts 里那个键名(比如 default/main/botA 之类)。不知道有哪些就先跑:

openclaw channels status --probe

然后你也可以用下面方式快速验证每个 account 对该频道是否可见:

openclaw message send --channel discord --account <id> --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "account probe"

(能发的就是“正确 token”;报 Unknown Channel 的就是“不在这个 guild 里/看不到这个频道”的 token。)


关于 “delivered: true 但实际 Unknown Channel”

如果你能在同一次 run里同时拿到:

  • openclaw cron runs --id <job> --limit 1 显示 delivered:true
#
  • 以及同一时间段的 Unknown Channel(并且能看到它尝试发到哪个 channelId)

那才是真正“状态回写错误”的 gateway bug 证据。

但基于 Discord 10003 的语义,优先级最高的排查还是:cron 用错 discord token/account(尤其是你提到迁移前 TG OK、迁移后 Discord 开始乱、现在 TG 也乱——非常像 service/cli 配置分裂或多实例/多账户问题)。

openclaw status --all 那段(cli vs service)贴一下,我可以直接告诉你是不是这个坑。

如果你问的是 cron delivery 的 “to” 正常格式(各渠道目标怎么写),下面是 OpenClaw 里推荐、最不容易踩坑的写法。

先说结论:你现在贴的 Discord 目标 to: "channel:1480263061058355342" 格式本身就是对的
你日志里的 “Unknown Channel” 更像是 用错了 Discord bot/account(token),而不是 to 写错。

Cron delivery 结构(通用)

{
  delivery: {
    mode: "announce",            // 或 "none"
    channel: "discord",          // telegram/whatsapp/slack/...
    to: "channel:<id>",          // 见下方各渠道格式
    bestEffort: true,            // 可选:失败不让 job 失败
    accountId: "default"         // 可选:多账号时强制用哪个账号
  }
}
#

CLI 等价(改投递目标):

openclaw cron edit <jobId> --announce --channel discord --to "channel:1480263061058355342"
# 多账号时再加:
openclaw cron edit <jobId> --announce --channel discord --to "channel:..." --account <accountId>

Discord(最重要)

  • 发到服务器文字频道:
    to: "channel:<channelId>"
  • 发到某个 thread:
    to: "channel:<threadId>"
  • 发私信(DM):
    to: "user:<userId>"to: "<@userId>"

说明:不要用裸数字(容易歧义/解析成别的东西),用 channel: / user: 前缀最稳。

#

文档: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord

Telegram

  • 普通聊天(用户/群/频道):
    to: "<chatId>"to: "@username"
  • Forum topic(强烈推荐写法):
    to: "-1001234567890:topic:123"

也支持带前缀的写法,但一般没必要:

  • to: "telegram:group:-1001234567890:topic:123"

文档: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/telegram


你现在该做的(针对 Unknown Channel)

既然格式已经对了,下一步请确认 cron 发送时用的 Discord accountId 是不是你 CLI 测试用的那个(多账号/Config(cli) vs Config(service) 不一致时最常见)。

#

如果你把 openclaw channels status --probe 里 Discord accounts 那段贴出来(可打码),我可以告诉你 cron 的 --account 应该填哪个。

#

你贴出来的这段 “Morning Brief” cron job 配置里,关键点其实是:

这条 job 现在 根本还在投递到 Telegram,不是 Discord。

"delivery": {
  "mode": "announce",
  "channel": "telegram",   // <- 这里是 telegram
  "to": "telegram:5976512794"
}

所以如果你在 Discord 的 #main-chat 里等它出现,那肯定等不到——它压根不会往 Discord 发。


你想把这条 Morning Brief 迁到 Discord,正确操作是直接 edit job 的 delivery

#

用你已经确认可用的 Discord 频道 ID:

openclaw cron edit f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 \
  --announce \
  --channel discord \
  --to "channel:1480263061058355342"

然后手动跑一次验证:

openclaw cron run f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 --force
openclaw cron runs --id f95c9cfd-a696-491f-9760-b595f715c547 --limit 3

#

关于你担心的 accountId / “用错 token”

从你贴的 “CLEAN Config” 看,你的 Discord/Telegram 都是单账号配置(没有 channels.discord.accounts / channels.telegram.accounts 这种多账号块),所以:

  • 不需要设置 delivery.accountId
  • cron 也不太可能“选错 token”

只有在你配置了多账号(accounts)或者做了 bindings 的情况下,--account 才是关键。


Telegram 的 to 建议(减少歧义)

telegram:5976512794 在某些路径下能被接受,但为了排除解析差异,建议你统一用更标准的写法之一:

  • --to "5976512794"(纯 chat id / user id)
  • --to "@username"

#

如果你把 openclaw cron list所有 job 的 id + delivery.channel/to(打码也行)贴一下,我可以帮你确认:你到底有几条 job、哪些在 Telegram、哪些在 Discord、以及你之前看到的 “Unknown Channel” 是不是来自另一条 job(或旧日志)。

Checking channel status (probe)…
Gateway reachable.

  • Telegram default: enabled, configured, running, mode:polling, bot:@Genesis, token:config, works
  • Discord default: enabled, configured, running, disconnected, in:just now, out:12m ago, bot:@Genesis_, token:config, intents:content=limited, works
waxen iceBOT
#

这份 channels status --probe 输出其实已经暴露了一个很关键的点:

  • Discord:running, disconnected ... intents: content=limited

这通常意味着 你的 Discord bot 没开 Message Content Intent(或只开了一部分),或者网关和 Discord 网关连接在抖动/断开。它不一定影响你用 REST 做一次性 message send,但会让很多“依赖 Discord 网关连接状态”的东西变得不稳定(包括目录缓存、某些路由/上下文采集、以及你之前用 message read/search 做取证时的可靠性)。

先把 Discord 连接状态修到“connected”

按文档把 Discord 开发者后台的 Bot intents 开好,然后重启 gateway:

  1. Discord Developer Portal → Application → Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents
  • 打开 Message Content Intent
    -(建议)打开 Server Members Intent(如果你用名字解析/allowlist 按名字等)
  1. 重启 gateway(用你实际运行方式):
openclaw gateway restart
#
# 或前台运行的就 Ctrl-C 后 openclaw gateway run

文档: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord (故障排除里有 “Used disallowed intents / content intent”)

然后再确认:你的 cron job 真的是投递到 Discord(不是 Telegram)

你之前贴的 Morning Brief job 还是 delivery.channel="telegram"。要迁移到 Discord:

openclaw cron edit <jobId> --announce --channel discord --to "channel:1480263061058355342"
openclaw cron run <jobId> --force
openclaw cron runs --id <jobId> --limit 3

如果修完 intents + gateway 连接仍然出现 “Unknown Channel”

那基本就是 发送时用的 bot token 视角里看不到这个频道(常见于:实际上跑 cron 的 gateway 实例用的是另一个 token / service 配置与 cli 配置不一致)。

#

这时请贴(可打码):

openclaw status --all
openclaw gateway status

重点看 Config (cli) vs Config (service) 有没有分裂。

你现在这份 probe 已经很接近答案了:先把 Discord 从 disconnected + content=limited 修到正常连接,再做 cron 投递验证,证据会干净很多。

不需要把这些都勾上(更不建议用 Administrator)。OpenClaw 在 Discord 里“正常收发消息”的最小权限基本是下面这一组(按场景分):

服务器文字频道里收发(推荐最小集)

必需:

  • View Channels
  • Send Messages
  • Read Message History
  • Embed Links(发链接预览/富文本时)
  • Attach Files(发图片/PDF/附件时)

可选:

  • Add Reactions(如果你希望它能用表情反应)
  • Use External Emojis / Stickers(需要用外部表情时)

如果你要发到 Forum / Media channel(会创建帖子/线程)

额外需要:

  • Create Public Threads
#
  • Send Messages in Threads

(否则可能出现“能发到普通 text channel,但 forum/threads 不行”的情况。)

只有在你明确要用这些功能时才需要的权限

  • Manage Messages / Pin Messages / Manage Threads:只有你要让它删消息、置顶、管理线程时才需要
  • Kick/Ban/Moderate Members / Manage Roles/Channels/Webhooks:除非你要让它做管理/版务,不要给

另外提醒:你之前看到的 intents: content=limited 不是“权限勾选”,而是 Discord Developer Portal 里的 Message Content Intent(需要在 Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents 里开启),这对“读取消息内容/正常响应”很关键。

文档里也有最小权限清单:
https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels/discord

如果你告诉我你主要用的是 普通 text channel 还是 forum channel(以及要不要 threads),我可以给你一份更精准的“只勾必需项”的配置。

how do i mannually debug this? i think its the routing issue still

waxen iceBOT
#

手动 debug 这类“cron 投递/路由”问题,我建议按一个固定的 最小可复现流程走(别用 Morning Brief 那种复杂任务当探针,先用一条只回一句话的 probe job 把投递链路打通)。

下面是一套我自己会用的排障剧本,你照着跑基本能把“routing/账号/多网关/线程”一次性排干净。


0) 先确认你在跟“哪个 Gateway”说话(排除多实例/配置分裂)

openclaw gateway status
openclaw status --all
openclaw channels status --probe

重点看:

  • Config (cli) vs Config (service) 是否一致(特别是 discord/telegram token 来源)
  • gateway 是否真的只有一个在跑(如果怀疑多进程:pgrep -af openclaw

#

1) 做一个“最小 cron probe job”(强烈推荐)

创建一条只会输出一个唯一字符串的 cron(避免模型/工具/子任务影响):

openclaw cron add \
  --name "Discord delivery probe" \
  --at "20m" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "Reply with exactly: CRON_PROBE_$(date +%s)" \
  --announce \
  --channel discord \
  --to "channel:1480263061058355342"

然后立刻强制跑:

#
openclaw cron run <NEW_JOB_ID> --force

2) 跟着日志看它到底往哪送、送失败的真实错误是什么

开一个窗口 follow:

openclaw logs --follow

另一个窗口跑 cron(上面那条 cron run)。

你要在 logs 里抓到的关键信息是类似:

  • 实际发送的 Discord route(尤其是 /channels/<id>/messages<id>
  • 如果报错:Discord API error code(10003 Unknown Channel / 50001 Missing Access / 403 Forbidden 等)
#

3) 用 API “读回历史”验证消息是否真的存在(不要只靠肉眼看 Discord)

cron 跑完后:

openclaw cron runs --id <NEW_JOB_ID> --limit 5
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 50
openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --query "CRON_PROBE_" --limit 10 --channel-id 1480263061058355342

如果你怀疑进了 thread:

openclaw message thread list --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --channel-id 1480263061058355342 --include-archived --limit 50

#

4) 如何判断“routing 问题”到底是哪一种

  • logsUnknown Channel (10003)
    99% 是 发送用的 bot token 视角里看不到这个频道(常见于:service 用了另一个 token / 多账号没指定 / 配置分裂)。
    这时就要对 cron job 显式加 --account <id>(如果你有 accounts),并重点检查 Config (service)

  • logsMissing Access (50001) / Forbidden
    就是权限/频道覆盖/机器人没进 guild 或没权限发。

  • cron run 里 delivered:true,但 message read/search 完全找不到,且 logs 也没显示实际发到哪个 messageId
    这才更像“状态回写/记录 bug”,但必须用上面这套 probe 输出做证据。


如果你愿意,把下面三段(可打码)贴出来,我可以直接告诉你是哪一类、下一步怎么修:

  1. openclaw status --all 里 config(cli/service) 的那段
  2. probe job 的 openclaw cron runs --id ... --limit 1
  3. openclaw logs 里对应那次投递失败的完整错误(包含 Discord code/route)

genesis@genesiss-Mac-mini ~ % pgrep -af openclaw
802
5425
56061

waxen iceBOT
#

这一下基本就抓到大鱼了:你机器上现在有 3 个 openclaw 相关进程

在 Discord/Telegram 这种“同一个 bot token 同时只能有一个主连接/轮询者”的体系里,多 gateway 实例并存会导致非常典型的症状:

  • 一个实例在跑 cron(写出 cron runs 记录)
  • 另一个实例在处理你 CLI 的 message send/read
  • Discord 连接会在多个实例之间反复 “disconnected”
  • Telegram polling 会互抢更新
  • 最终表现就是:你看到的“delivered/状态/日志/实际消息”对不上

下一步:先把这 3 个 PID 是什么弄清楚

请跑(把输出贴出来即可):

ps -o pid,ppid,etime,command -p 802,5425,56061
openclaw gateway status
#

ps ... 会告诉我们:

  • 哪个是 gateway service(launchd/systemd 的后台)
  • 哪个是你可能手动跑过的 openclaw gateway run
  • 第三个可能只是 openclaw tui/openclaw logs --follow 之类

目标状态:只保留“一个” Gateway 在跑

你要二选一:

方案 A(推荐):只用后台服务

  • 关闭任何你手动开的 openclaw gateway run 终端(Ctrl‑C)
  • 然后:
    openclaw gateway restart
    
  • 再确认只剩一个实例:
#
  pgrep -af openclaw
  openclaw channels status --probe

方案 B:只用前台(调试时)

  • 先停掉后台服务:
    openclaw gateway stop
    
  • 再在一个终端里跑:
    openclaw gateway run
    

清理完再复测 cron/投递

清理后再跑一次你那套:

#
openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw cron run <jobId> --force
openclaw cron runs --id <jobId> --limit 3

ps ... + openclaw gateway status 贴出来,我可以直接告诉你应该杀/停哪一个 PID,保证不误伤。

thin jackal
#

802 is monitoring script.
5425 is gateway _watchdog.py
56061 is openclaw gateway

waxen iceBOT
#

Nice — 这就排除了“两个 Gateway 互相打架”这种最常见的大坑了。只要 56061 是唯一的 openclaw gateway,那 802/5425 这种监控脚本本身不会直接造成 Discord/TG 互抢连接(前提是它们没有再偷偷拉起第二个 gateway 实例)。

接下来我建议你做两件事,把问题彻底钉死:

1) 确认 watchdog 没有“重启成另一份配置/环境”

请贴一下(可打码):

openclaw gateway status
openclaw status --all

重点看:

  • gateway 实际读取的 config 路径 / token 来源(config vs env)
  • 是否出现 Config (cli) vs Config (service) 不一致(即使不是 launchd,也可能出现“你 CLI 用的是 A 配置,但 watchdog 启的是 B 配置”)

2) 用“最小 cron probe job”验证 cron→Discord 投递链路

#

不要用 Morning Brief(太复杂,容易被内容/子任务/NO_REPLY 干扰)。先做一条只回一句话的 probe:

openclaw cron add \
  --name "Discord cron probe" \
  --at "20m" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "Reply with exactly: DISCORD_CRON_PROBE_$(date +%s)" \
  --announce \
  --channel discord \
  --to "channel:1480263061058355342"

openclaw cron run <NEW_JOB_ID> --force
openclaw cron runs --id <NEW_JOB_ID> --limit 3
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 20
#

结果解释:

  • 如果 probe 能发出来:说明 cron→discord 机制没问题,你原来的 Morning Brief job 90% 是“还没改成 discord / to 不是你以为的 / 输出被抑制(NO_REPLY/空)”这类配置问题。
  • 如果 probe 也发不出来:那就看 openclaw logs --limit 300 里对应的 Discord API 错误码(10003 Unknown Channel / 50001 Missing Access / 403)来定位是“token视角不对”还是“权限/频道类型”问题。

你把 gateway status + status --all 和 probe 那条 job 的 cron runs 输出贴一下,我基本可以直接告诉你问题落在哪一层。

thin jackal
#

Config 检查结果:

Gateway 读取的配置:
"subagents": {
"maxConcurrent": 8,
"announceTimeoutMs": 180000
}

✅ announceTimeoutMs: 180000 确实在配置中
✅ CLI 和 Gateway 使用同一个 config 文件
✅ 配置正确

不是配置问题。

waxen iceBOT
#

你这段“配置一致 + announceTimeoutMs 生效”的结论只能说明一件事:

  • subagent announce 的 60s 超时问题被你修掉了
  • 但它完全不能证明 cron → Discord 的投递链路已经健康(尤其是你之前开了 bestEffort: true,很多投递错误会被吞掉,run 还能显示 ok)

所以现在真的要排的是 delivery 本身,而不是 announceTimeoutMs


最快“手动 debug routing/投递”的办法:做一个不带 bestEffort 的最小 Discord probe job

关键点:不要用 Morning Brief,也不要带 bestEffort(默认就是 false),这样一旦投递失败,cron runs 里会直接给你 deliveryError,不会再出现“看起来 delivered 但没消息”的误导。

1) 创建 probe job(只回一句话)

openclaw cron add \
  --name "Discord delivery probe (no bestEffort)" \
#
  --at "20m" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "Reply with exactly: DISCORD_PROBE_$(date +%s)" \
  --announce \
  --channel discord \
  --to "channel:1480263061058355342"

2) 立刻强制跑

openclaw cron run <NEW_JOB_ID> --force
openclaw cron runs --id <NEW_JOB_ID> --limit 5

cron runs 的最后一条完整 JSON 贴出来(尤其是 delivered / deliveryStatus / deliveryError / sessionKey)。

#

3) 同时用 API 读回频道历史(确认到底有没有)

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 30

为什么这一步很关键

  • 如果 probe 成功:说明 cron→discord 投递机制没问题,你之前的 Morning Brief 只是 job 没改到 discord、或者输出被抑制(NO_REPLY/空)、或者 to/target 实际不是你以为的那个。
  • 如果 probe 失败deliveryError 会告诉我们到底是
    • Unknown Channel (10003)(token视角看不到频道/发到错的 channelId/用错 bot)
    • Missing Access (50001) / Forbidden(权限问题)
    • 网络/超时(连接问题)

到那一步我们才能决定要不要开 GitHub issue,以及 issue 应该指向哪里。

你现在说“不是配置问题”,我不反对,但我们缺的不是 config 片段,而是 一次不带 bestEffort 的最小投递 run 的 deliveryError。这条一出来,基本就结案了。

Perfect — 这个 probe job 的 JSON 看起来完全正确,而且你已经做到“no bestEffort”(很好,这样失败就不会被吞)。

现在下一步就差 跑一次 + 抓到 run 结果和 deliveryError 了:

1) 立刻强制跑(不用等到 at 时间)

openclaw cron run aec8c71d-3f14-463c-b152-5aaeb73475f7 --force

注意:cron run 现在是“入队就返回”,不代表已经执行完。

2) 看 run 记录(这里会出现 delivered/deliveryError)

openclaw cron runs --id aec8c71d-3f14-463c-b152-5aaeb73475f7 --limit 10

把最新那条完整 JSON 贴出来(重点字段:status / delivered / deliveryStatus / deliveryError / summary)。

#

3) 同时用 API 读频道历史确认有没有发出去

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 30

4) 如果失败,抓日志里的真正错误码

建议一边跑一边 follow:

openclaw logs --follow

然后再 cron run --force 一次,看 Discord API 报的是:

  • Unknown Channel (10003)(token视角看不到这个频道/发到错的 channelId)
  • Missing Access (50001)(权限问题)
  • 403/429/网络超时等

#

顺带一提:你 doctor 的 Telegram warning

这个 warning 很关键:你现在 Telegram groupPolicy="allowlist" 但 allowlist 为空,会导致 所有 Telegram 群消息入站都被静默丢弃(也就是你在群里喊它,它不会理你)。
这不影响我们当前的 Discord cron probe,但能解释你说的“TG 现在也怪怪的”。

等 Discord 这边定性完,再回头修 Telegram allowlist(channels.telegram.groupAllowFrom/allowFrom)。

你先把第 2 步的 cron runs 输出贴出来,我们就能继续往下定位了。

Nice — 这条 probe job 已经跑完了,而且 cron runs 里明确写了:

  • summary: "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612"
  • delivered: true
  • deliveryStatus: "delivered"
  • 还给了 sessionId/sessionKey

现在就差最后一步:用 Discord API 反查这条消息到底在不在。如果查不到,那就不是“你肉眼没看到”,而是系统真的把 delivered 记错了。

1) 立刻用 search 精确查这条 probe 文本(最强证据)

openclaw message search --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --query "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" \
  --limit 5
#

再补一个 read(看最近 50 条里有没有):

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 50

把这两条输出贴出来(可打码)。

  • 如果 search/read 都是 0 命中:那就能 100% 证明 “delivered=true 但实际没发出去/不存在”

2) 如果 search/read 0 命中,马上查 delivery-queue(会告诉你真实 lastError)

OpenClaw 发送前会把投递写进 ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/,失败会留 .json 并写 lastError/retryCount

请跑:

ls -ლა ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue | head
ls -la ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/failed 2>/dev/null || true
#

如果有 *.json,挑一个最近的(或跟你时间最接近的)打开看关键字段(只贴这些字段也行):

  • channel
  • to
  • retryCount
  • lastError
  • enqueuedAt

这样我们就能知道它到底是在重试什么错误(10003 Unknown Channel / 50001 Missing Access / 网络超时等),以及为什么 cron run 还写了 delivered。


现在你手里这条 run 记录已经很“issue-ready”了;只要再补上:

  • message search/read 的 0 命中证据(或命中但跑到别处)
  • delivery-queue 里的 lastError(如果有)

就能把问题定性为:状态回写 bug 还是 投递失败被队列重试吞掉/误判

这太有价值了:~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/ 里确实堆了很多 *.json(说明有投递失败后留在队列里的记录)。

现在我们要做的就是把 probe 那条投递在队列里对应的文件找出来,看它的 lastError/retryCount,这样就能确认:

  • 到底是“真的发送成功但被删/你没看到”
  • 还是“实际发送失败但 cron runs 误写 delivered=true”(真正的 bug 证据)

1) 先在 delivery-queue 里定位 probe 文本对应的条目

跑这个(mac 上用 grep 最稳):

grep -R "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/*.json

如果有输出,它会告诉你是哪个 UUID.json 命中的。

2) 打开命中的那条 json(只要贴关键字段即可)

#

比如命中的是 1d192eb6-...json,就:

python3 -c 'import json; p=json.load(open("'"$HOME/.openclaw/delivery-queue/1d192eb6-18c8-432c-a8f9-464bb0242790.json"'")); 
print({k:p.get(k) for k in ["id","channel","to","accountId","enqueuedAt","retryCount","lastAttemptAt","lastError","threadId"]});
print("payload_text:", (p.get("payloads") or [{}])[0].get("text"))'

(或你直接 cat 也行,但会比较长。)

我最想看到的是:

  • channel
  • to
  • retryCount
  • lastError

3) 同时再做一次 Discord API 搜索(确认消息是否存在过)

#
openclaw message search --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --query "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" \
  --limit 5

解释一下你刚才的 ls 报错

你敲的是 ls -ला(里面那个 -ला 不是 ASCII 的 -la),macOS 的 ls 会当成非法参数。用下面这个就行:

ls -la ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue | head
#

grep 命中的文件名 + 那条 json 的 lastError/retryCount 贴出来,我们基本就能一锤定音:是 Discord 10003/50001 权限类问题、还是 delivery-queue 重试/恢复逻辑有 bug、还是 cron runs 的 delivered 状态回写错了。

thin jackal
#

no response in terminal when i do grep -R "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/*.json

waxen iceBOT
#

Got it — grep 没命中其实也是信息量很大的结果:

  • 说明 ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/*.json没有包含 DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612 这段文本的“待投递/失败投递”记录
  • 这通常意味着两种可能:
    1. 这次投递 没有留在队列里(要么成功后已 ack 清掉;要么失败后被移动到 failed/;要么根本没走 queue)
    2. 队列里存的 payload 文本被 hook/包装过,不是你预期的纯文本(比较少见,但可能)

下一步这样做最稳:

1) 先查 failed/ 目录(很多失败会被搬过去)

ls -la ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/failed 2>/dev/null || echo "no failed dir"
grep -R "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/failed/*.json 2>/dev/null || true

2) 不按内容查,按 “目标频道 ID” 查(更可靠)

#
grep -R "1480263061058355342" ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/*.json ~/.openclaw/delivery-queue/failed/*.json 2>/dev/null || true

如果命中了某个 *.json,我们就打开那一条看 lastError/retryCount

3) 关键:你现在还没贴 message search/read 的结果

因为 cron runs 说 delivered=true,理论上 Discord 里就应该能被搜索到。请把这条跑一下并贴输出:

openclaw message search --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --query "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" \
  --limit 5
#
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 50
  • 如果 search/read 找不到,而 delivery-queue 里也找不到:那就很像“发送成功后被秒删/被自动化清理”,或者确实存在“delivered 误标”的 bug(但我们需要 logs 里那次 send 的错误/响应来证明)。
  • 如果 search 找到了(可能在 thread/别的 channel),那就是“你看错位置/路由到 thread”的问题。

你先跑完上面 1) 2) 3) 把输出贴出来,我们就能继续往下把它钉死。

Good — 现在我们知道两件事:

  1. failed/ 目录里确实有一批“投递彻底失败(超过重试/判定永久失败)”的 delivery 记录
  2. 但这些失败记录里 没有出现 DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612 这段文本(至少按纯文本 grep 没命中)

下一步我们要做两件“硬定位”:

A) 直接把最像相关的失败条目打开看 channel/to/lastError

failed/ 里最可疑的是这两个“刚好在 17:49 写入、体积很小”的文件:

  • 1d192eb6-...2790.json (571 bytes)
  • 4a4a8213-...7503.json (674 bytes)

请分别跑(会输出关键字段,不会刷一整屏):

#

MY BOT SAID ⚠️ OpenClaw watchdog: health degraded (discord probe failed: getMe failed (503)). Monitoring for 3 consecutive failures before restart.
✅ OpenClaw watchdog: gateway/channels recovered and healthy.

#
p=json.load(open(sys.argv[1]))
print("id:", p.get("id"))

print("retryCount:", p.get("retryCount"))
print("lastError:", p.get("lastError"))
payloads=p.get("payloads") or []
print("payload0.text:", (payloads[0].get("text") if payloads and isinstance(payloads[0],dict) else None))
PY

这会立刻告诉我们:

  • 失败的是不是 discord
  • 发往的 to 究竟是什么(是不是你期望的 channel:148026...
  • lastError 是不是你之前看到的 Unknown Channel(Discord 10003)/ Missing Access
#

B) 同时确认 probe 消息在 Discord 频道里到底有没有(用 read + 本地 grep)

Discord 的 search endpoint 有时对 bot 权限/接口限制比较坑,所以先用 read 最稳:

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 100 --json | grep -F "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" || echo "not found in last 100"
  • 如果这里能找到:说明消息其实发了,只是你肉眼没看到/看错位置。
  • 如果这里找不到,而 cron runs 又写 delivered:true:那就非常接近“状态标记 bug”,但我们还需要把 A) 的 lastError 对上时间线。

把 A) 两个文件的输出贴出来,我们就能继续往下收敛到“用错 token/频道 ID”还是“delivered 状态回写真的错”。

两件事先澄清一下:

  1. grepdelivery-queue 里找不到 1480263061058355342 不代表没投递
    因为成功投递的 queue entry 会被 立刻 ack 掉并删掉,你事后 grep 经常是空的——这是正常现象。

  2. 现在真正关键的是:你跑的 openclaw message search/read 输出是什么。你刚贴的消息里只有命令,没有结果,所以我没法判断它是:

  • 查到了但你没贴出来
  • 直接报错(比如 403 / 缺权限 / endpoint 不允许 bot 搜索)
  • 卡住/超时

请你把下面这两条的“实际输出”贴出来(哪怕是错误也行)

为了避免你终端输出太长,建议用 “read + 本地 grep” 直接给出 yes/no:

#
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 200 --json | grep -F "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" || echo "NOT_FOUND"

如果这条输出 NOT_FOUND,我们再看 search(search 可能会报权限问题,没关系):

openclaw message search --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --query "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" \
  --limit 5

把这两条的输出原样贴出来。


#

如果 read 里 NOT_FOUND,但 cron runs 仍是 delivered=true

那就进入下一层定位:它可能投递到 thread(threadId)而不是频道本身

这时跑:

openclaw message thread list --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --include-archived --limit 50

然后对 list 里最近的 thread id 做:

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:<THREAD_ID> --limit 50

#

先把 message read ... | grep ... 的结果贴出来,我们就能决定下一步走 thread 路线还是权限/接口路线。

#

那个 watchdog 提示其实很关键:

discord probe failed: getMe failed (503) → 然后又恢复 healthy

这说明你这段时间 Discord API/网络是抖的getMe(拉取 bot 自身信息)都能 503 的话,同一时间窗口里 cron 的 Discord 投递也完全可能失败/超时/被重试——这时你看到的“路由问题”很多其实是 上游 503 造成的假象

接下来建议你这样把变量控制住:

1) 先确认此刻 Discord 真的健康(把 503 因素排掉)

openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "MANUAL_HEALTH_PROBE_$(date +%s)"
  • 如果 message send 也偶发 503/失败,那不是 cron routing,先解决 Discord API/连接稳定性。

2) 在 “probe healthy” 的窗口里,再强制跑一次 cron probe

#
openclaw cron run aec8c71d-3f14-463c-b152-5aaeb73475f7 --force
openclaw cron runs --id aec8c71d-3f14-463c-b152-5aaeb73475f7 --limit 1
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 200 --json | grep -F "DISCORD_PROBE_"

如果这时:

  • cron still delivered:true
  • 但 read 里找不到 DISCORD_PROBE_...
  • 且没有 503 干扰

那才是真正的“delivered 状态回写/投递链路不一致”的强 bug 证据。

3) 如果 503 很频繁:开 Discord 发送重试(抗抖)

你可以在 config 里加/调(文档里有这个块):

#
channels: {
  discord: {
    retry: {
      attempts: 3,
      minDelayMs: 500,
      maxDelayMs: 30000,
      jitter: 0.1,
    },
  },
}

然后 openclaw gateway restart


#

你现在的问题很可能是“两件事叠在一起”:

  1. Discord API 503 抖动(导致投递不稳定/重试/误判)
  2. cron delivered 状态本身不够“可审计”(缺 messageId/失败原因)

先把 503 变量压下去,我们就能更干净地判断到底是不是 routing bug。你贴一下 openclaw message send 失败时的原始错误(如果还有 503),我可以再帮你判断是 Discord outage、网络/DNS、还是 token/权限导致的。

#

Great — 这条输出非常关键:

openclaw message read ... | grep DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612not found in last 100

也就是说:至少在 #main-chat 的主消息流里没有这条 probe

但我们还需要再做两个“排除项”,否则很容易把问题误判成 delivered 标记 bug:


0) 先确认 message read 本身是可信的(能看到你手动发的消息)

请你先手动发一条,再立刻 read 回来:

openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "MANUAL_READBACK_$(date +%s)"
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 20 --json | grep -F "MANUAL_READBACK_" || echo "readback failed"
#
  • 如果这里 能 readback 命中:说明 message read 是可信的,我们的 “DISCORD_PROBE not found” 结论有效。
  • 如果这里 readback 也失败:那不是 cron 的锅,是你的 Discord API/权限/连接状态不稳定(你前面也看到过 getMe failed (503)),先把这个修稳。

1) 立刻查“是不是发到 thread 里了”(这是最常见的“频道里看不到但 delivered=true”的原因)

Discord 文字频道也可能有 threads。Cron delivery 在某些情况下会携带 threadId(来自 session 的 lastThreadId),导致消息发进 thread。

请跑:

openclaw message thread list --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \
  --include-archived --limit 50
#

然后挑最新的几个 thread id,逐个读一下:

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:<THREAD_ID> --limit 50 --json | grep -F "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" || echo "not in this thread"

如果在某个 thread 里命中,那就不是 delivered 标记 bug,而是 thread 路由/lastThreadId 继承问题。


2) 你刚才打开 failed JSON 的方式被 heredoc 搞乱了(先别纠结那个)

先把 thread + readback 这两步做完;如果 thread 里也找不到 probe,而且 readback 又是 OK 的,那我们就可以非常自信地说:

  • cron run 记录 delivered:true 与 Discord 实际消息不一致
    => 这是足够硬的 GitHub issue 证据(再补一段当时的 openclaw logs 就完美)。

你先贴一下 readback 是否成功 + thread list 输出,我们就能把问题钉死在“thread routing”还是“状态回写 bug/Discord API 抖动”。

KEEP IT SHORT AND MINIMMAL PLS. YOUVE LOST ME

OK. Do just this, in order:

1) Verify message read works (so we can trust “not found”)

openclaw message send --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --message "READBACK_$(date +%s)"
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 20 --json | grep -F "READBACK_" || echo "READ FAILED"

2) Check if cron posted into a thread (not the channel timeline)

openclaw message thread list --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --channel-id 1480263061058355342 --include-archived --limit 20

Pick the newest thread id from that output, then:

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:<THREAD_ID> --limit 50 --json | grep -F "DISCORD_PROBE_1773163612" || echo "NOT IN THREAD"
#

3) If still not found anywhere

Paste these two outputs (only):

  • openclaw cron runs --id aec8c71d-... --limit 1
  • openclaw logs --limit 200 | grep -i discord
thin jackal
#

I GOT THE RESULT BUT I CANT SEND IN ONE MESSAGE

waxen iceBOT
#

No problem — split it.

Send 2 messages with only the key lines (not full JSON dumps):

Message 1 (READBACK):

  • The line that contains READBACK_... from the openclaw message read ... | grep READBACK command
    OR the literal output READ FAILED.

Message 2 (Cron/Threads/Logs):

  • The single cron runs entry line showing delivered + deliveryStatus (and the summary/probe string)
  • The newest thread id from thread list (if any) + whether grep DISCORD_PROBE... found it
  • 5–10 log lines only (anything with discord, 503, Unknown Channel, getMe, deliver)

If it’s still too big: rerun logs with filtering:

openclaw logs --limit 200 | grep -iE "discord|getMe|503|unknown channel|deliver|probe"

Good — Discord send works.

Now run the readback (paste the single line it outputs):

openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 20 --json | grep -F "READBACK_TEST" || echo "READ FAILED"

If that matches, then message read is trustworthy and we can confidently say the cron DISCORD_PROBE_... wasn’t posted to the channel timeline (next step would be checking threads).

Good — read works. So now we can do a clean test.

Do one more cron probe now and check immediately (removes “older than last 100” confusion)

openclaw cron add \
  --name "Discord probe NOW" \
  --at "20m" \
  --session isolated \
  --message "Reply with exactly: CRON_NOW_$(date +%s)" \
  --announce --channel discord --to "channel:1480263061058355342"

openclaw cron run <NEW_JOB_ID> --force
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:1480263061058355342 --limit 30 --json | grep -F "CRON_NOW_" || echo "NOT FOUND"
  • If it shows up: cron delivery works; your earlier DISCORD_PROBE_... was probably just older than the last 100 messages you checked.
  • If it’s NOT FOUND immediately: that’s a real delivery mismatch → we grab openclaw logs --limit 200 | grep -i discord and file the issue.

OK — this is the smoking gun: cron says delivered:true but the message is not in the target channel right after.

Next, do one of these to find where it actually went:

1) Guild-wide search (best if it works)

openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --query "CRON_NOW_1773166736" --limit 5

If it returns a hit, it’ll tell you the channel/thread it landed in.

2) If search fails/returns nothing: check threads under #main-chat

openclaw message thread list --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --channel-id 1480263061058355342 --include-archived --limit 20

Then pick the newest thread id from that list and:

#
openclaw message read --channel discord --target channel:<THREAD_ID> --limit 50 --json | grep -F "CRON_NOW_1773166736" || echo "NOT IN THIS THREAD"

If it’s not found anywhere (search + threads), then it’s a real bug → grab:

openclaw logs --limit 200 | grep -iE "cron|discord|deliver|error|503|unknown"

and file the issue with your cron run entry + these logs.

waxen iceBOT
#

Good — search works, so the message exists somewhere. We just need the channel_id it landed in (it’s probably a thread).

Run this to print the match location:

openclaw message search --channel discord --guild-id 1466444538892648610 --query "CRON_NOW_1773166736" --limit 5 --json | \
python3 - <<'PY'
import json,sys
d=json.load(sys.stdin)
msgs=d.get("results",{}).get("messages",[])
flat=[]
for batch in msgs:
  if isinstance(batch,list): flat += batch
  elif isinstance(batch,dict): flat.append(batch)
for m in flat[:5]:
  print("channel_id=", m.get("channel_id"), "message_id=", m.get("id"), "content=", (m.get("content") or "")[:80])
#
PY

Reply with the channel_id.

Then we’ll do:

openclaw message channel info --channel discord --target channel:<CHANNEL_ID>

If that channel_id is a thread, that’s why message read on #main-chat didn’t show it.

#

Run the same command with --json and we can grab the thread IDs:

openclaw message thread list --channel discord \
  --guild-id 1466444538892648610 \
  --channel-id 1480263061058355342 \

threads = d.get("threads") or d.get("result",{}).get("threads") or []
for t in threads[:20]:
  print(t.get("id"), t.get("name"), t.get("parent_id"))
PY

Then pick the newest thread id and run:

#

Yeah — with what you have now, this is issue-worthy:

  • cron probe run: status:"ok" + delivered:true
  • immediate openclaw message read on the target channel: NOT FOUND
  • threads under that channel: 0
  • guild search returns 0 hits (even if search indexing is flaky, the readback check is the strong proof)

File a GitHub issue

https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues

Paste these 4 things (minimal, copy/paste):

  1. openclaw --version
  2. The cron job JSON (the Discord probe NOW one)
  3. The openclaw cron runs --id 1eb82dbf-... --limit 1 entry showing delivered:true
  4. Proof it’s missing:
    • openclaw message send ... "READBACK_TEST" output (Message ID)
#
  • openclaw message read ... | grep READBACK_TEST (shows read works)
    • openclaw message read ... | grep CRON_NOW_... (NOT FOUND)

Optional but helpful:

openclaw logs --limit 300 | grep -iE "cron|discord|deliver|getMe|503|unknown channel|missing access|forbidden"

That’s enough for maintainers to reproduce: “cron delivery marks delivered but Discord send didn’t actually land.”

thin jackal
#

SO WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND? WHAT CAUSED THE CRON JOBS FAIL

waxen iceBOT
#

What we’ve actually proven (with a clean, minimal repro) is:

  1. Discord itself is not the problem.
    Manual send works and is readable:

    • openclaw message send … "READBACK_TEST" → ✅ sent (has Message ID)
    • openclaw message read … | grep READBACK_TEST → ✅ found
  2. Cron→Discord delivery is the failing part.
    A minimal cron job with:

    • delivery.channel="discord"
    • delivery.to="channel:1480263061058355342"
      finishes with:
    • status:"ok", delivered:true, deliveryStatus:"delivered"
      BUT:
    • openclaw message read … | grep CRON_NOW_…NOT FOUND
    • thread list under that channel → 0
#

So the “cron jobs failed after migrating to Discord” is not routing / not your target format. It’s a gateway bug / inconsistency: cron run is being marked delivered even though no Discord message exists (or it’s being dropped before reaching Discord, possibly related to the intermittent Discord getMe failed (503) you saw).

Separate issue: Telegram group behavior was also broken by config (groupPolicy=allowlist but groupAllowFrom/allowFrom empty → silent drop).

At this point the cause is: cron delivery pipeline is misreporting success (delivered=true) while not actually delivering. You have enough evidence to file a GitHub issue with the repro + outputs.

thin jackal
#

AND I PROBABLY HAVE LOBSTER USED FOR PREVIOUS CRON JOBS. WOULD THAT MATTER? MAYBE THE PIPELINE WAS OLD AND OUTDATED?

waxen iceBOT
#

It can matter for old cron jobs, but it doesn’t explain the bug we reproduced with a brand‑new cron probe created on 2026.3.7.

Two separate points:

  1. Old “lobster / clawdbot / moltbot” installs running in parallel absolutely matter.
    If an old gateway/service is still installed or sometimes started, you can end up with “I changed config / ran CLI” but a different binary is executing cron/delivery.

Quick check:

which openclaw; openclaw --version
which clawdbot 2>/dev/null; clawdbot --version 2>/dev/null
pgrep -af "openclaw|clawdbot|moltbot|clawd"
  1. Old cron job formats can need migration.
    If you have cron jobs created on older versions, run:
#
openclaw doctor --fix

(There are known migrations for legacy cron fields/store formats.)

But again: since the new “Discord probe NOW” job also shows delivered:true with no Discord message, you still have a current delivery/status bug to report — the old pipeline is at most additional cleanup.

thin jackal
#

AM I ABLE TO ROLLBACK TO BEFORE CHANGING CRON JOBS TO DISCORD?

waxen iceBOT
#

Yes — there’s no special “rollback” button, but you can revert in two simple ways:

Option A (recommended): edit the jobs back to Telegram via CLI

For each job you changed:

openclaw cron edit <jobId> --announce --channel telegram --to "<YOUR_TELEGRAM_TARGET>"

(Use whatever target worked before, e.g. 5976512794 or -100…:topic:123.)

Option B: restore the cron store from a backup

Cron jobs live in:

  • ~/.openclaw/cron/jobs.json

If you have a backup copy of that file from before the Discord change:

  1. stop the gateway
  2. replace jobs.json with the backup
#
  1. start the gateway again

If you paste one example jobId + the Telegram to you want, I can give you the exact openclaw cron edit ... command for it.
