If the error is the common unauthorized / 1008 one, it’s usually one of two things: wrong dashboard auth, or a new browser/device that still needs pairing.

In PowerShell, run:

openclaw --version
openclaw status
openclaw gateway status
openclaw config get gateway.auth.token

Then try this:

  • open http://127.0.0.1:18789/
  • go to Overview → Gateway Access
  • paste that exact token into Gateway Token and reconnect
    (or the password instead, if you set password auth)
#

If no token is set yet:

openclaw doctor --generate-gateway-token

If the UI says pairing required, run:

openclaw devices list
openclaw devices approve <requestId>

If openclaw gateway status shows Config (cli) and Config (service) are different, that’s the mismatch, paste that output here and I’ll tell you the exact fix.
