Hello @rain slate, I have a crashloop when the gateway receive the first message from discord (or when accessing the webUI).
This coincide with installing the losslessclaw plugin, ideas?

Same here, how to overcome it?

Not sure whether it's actually related to losslessclaw or not, I tried disabling the plugin => no effect

I reverted to a snapshot of my openclaw VM, the only difference between the two openclaw.json is an additionnal agent in the config

First thing: can you paste openclaw --version? Version matters a lot here.

That said, the log points more at Bonjour/mDNS than the extra agent or lossless-claw:

bonjour: restarting advertiser (service stuck in announcing...)
Unhandled promise rejection: CIAO ANNOUNCEMENT CANCELLED

If this VM is on a VPS / Docker / bridged network / blocked multicast, try disabling Bonjour:

OPENCLAW_DISABLE_BONJOUR=1
openclaw gateway restart

or persistently:

# 
openclaw plugins disable bonjour
openclaw gateway restart

Bonjour is only LAN auto-discovery, so disabling it should not break Discord/WebUI if you connect directly to the gateway URL.

Also run:

openclaw status --all
openclaw doctor

If it still crashloops after disabling Bonjour, please paste:

  1. openclaw --version
