First thing, what does this show?

openclaw --version

Since it died on both Telegram and WebSocket mid-chat, this sounds more like the gateway/agent/model path got stuck than a Telegram-only issue.

Please run these and paste the output:

openclaw status --all
openclaw gateway status
openclaw channels status --probe
openclaw logs --follow

If it’s still dead, do one clean restart:

openclaw gateway restart

Then send one test message and watch the logs again.

I’d look for:

• provider/model errors
• pairing/auth errors
• mention required / allowlist drops
• gateway probe not ok

• Troubleshooting: https://docs.openclaw.ai/gateway/troubleshooting

Paste openclaw --version plus the first suspicious log lines, and I’ll help narrow it down.

Sorry, I mean on the machine where OpenClaw is running, open a terminal and run this first:

openclaw --version

Then run:

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

Paste the output here.

If openclaw says command not found, tell me how you installed it, source, npm, Docker, or app, and I’ll adjust.
