I can't even get openclaw onboard to run now - I had a working agent and now it is completely messed up. openclaw onboad getting stuck after asking about requiring lockdown. i choose yes and it stops. my agent is not responding. seems it is because my session token for openai expired. no idea what to do right now.

I can't even get openclaw onboard to run now - I had a working agent and now it ...
First thing: what does this print?
openclaw --version
For the OpenAI session-token angle, if you were using the ChatGPT/Codex subscription route, refresh auth directly instead of rerunning the whole onboarding flow:
openclaw models auth login --provider openai-codex
openclaw models status
openclaw gateway restart
If the browser callback is what’s wedged, use device code:

I can't even get openclaw onboard to run now - I had a working agent and now it ...
openclaw models auth login --provider openai-codex --device-code
Then check whether the agent/gateway are actually running:
openclaw status --all
openclaw gateway status
openclaw logs --follow
I’d avoid reset/reinstall steps for now. If openclaw onboard is stopping right after the “lockdown” choice, that sounds like either a CLI bug or a blocked validation step, and the useful next thing is the version plus the last ~50 lines from openclaw logs --follow around the stop. Tokens should be redacted by status --all, but still skim before posting.
