Trust breakdown (6 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score →

Supply Chain Security87
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • Only part of the dependency tree could be resolved (97 of 101), so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.Partial

Changelog

Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

  • 3 Aug 26 +1

    No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 20 to 23. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 6 days of observed history at the previous scan, 7 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

Tool Tokens
openclaw_agent ~213

Root-level `agent` method — sends a message to the default agent and returns the agent's response. Wire format (verified live against gateway 2026.4.12+): requires `message` + `idempotencyKey` (auto-generated if omitted). NOT read-only — this triggers an agent turn. Prefer `openclaw_sessions_send` when you want explicit session control.

NameTypeReqDescription
agentIdstringOverride the default agent.
idempotencyKeystringUnique key to dedupe retries. Auto-generated UUID if omitted.
instancestringOptional OpenClaw instance to route this call to (e.g. 'default', 'work'). Falls back to the active default instance, or the OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL/TOKEN env vars when set. List configured instances wi…
messagestringyesMessage to send to the agent.
sessionIdstringTarget a specific session; omit to use the default.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_call ~274

DESTRUCTIVE ESCAPE HATCH — call ANY JSON-RPC method on the gateway with arbitrary params. Use this to operate on endpoints that don't yet have a typed wrapper. The user must validate the exact method name and params on every call (especially anything matching `*.add|remove|delete|update|create|write|terminate|reset|approve|reject`). For read-only inspection prefer the typed tools (`openclaw_cron_list`, `openclaw_introspect`, …) — `openclaw_call` should only be used when no typed alternative exists.

paramsobjectMethod params. MUST be a JSON object matching the gateway's expected shape (e.g. `{}` for no-arg methods). Strings, arrays, or primitives are rejected — the gateway requires an object even when there…

No output schema declared.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_chat_send ~246

Send a message into a chat session via the gateway's chat layer. Wire format (verified live against gateway 2026.4.12+): requires `sessionKey` (composite, e.g. 'agent:main:main' from openclaw_sessions_list), `message`, and `idempotencyKey` (auto-generated UUID if omitted). The pre-0.5.x `agentId`/`sessionId`/`text` shape is rejected by the gateway. Destructive — triggers an agent turn.

NameTypeReqDescription
idempotencyKeystringUnique key to dedupe retries. Auto-generated UUID if omitted.
instancestringOptional OpenClaw instance to route this call to (e.g. 'default', 'work'). Falls back to the active default instance, or the OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL/TOKEN env vars when set. List configured instances wi…

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_config_get ~170

Read the gateway's current configuration. Wraps `config.get`. Read-only. The gateway returns the full config; pass `path` to project to a sub-section client-side after fetch (the gateway itself does NOT support a `path` filter — verified live against 2026.4.12+).

NameTypeReqDescription
instancestringOptional OpenClaw instance to route this call to (e.g. 'default', 'work'). Falls back to the active default instance, or the OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL/TOKEN env vars when set. List configured instances wi…
pathstringDotted path applied client-side to project the response (e.g. 'channels.telegram'). Does not reduce wire traffic — the gateway always returns the full config.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_config_patch ~319

Optimistic-locked replace of the FULL gateway config (verified live against 2026.4.12+). Wraps `config.patch`. Wire format: `{ raw: string, baseHash: string }` where `raw` is the full config serialized as JSON and `baseHash` comes from a previous `openclaw_config_get` call. Pass `mergePath` + `mergeValue` for the convenience flow: this tool will fetch the current config, deep-merge your value at the given dotted path, compute the resulting `raw` JSON, and submit it with the freshly-read `baseHash`. Destructive — replaces the entire config atomically.

NameTypeReqDescription
baseHashstringHash of the config the patch is based on. Required with `raw`. Get it from openclaw_config_get.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_config_schema ~105

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_config_set ~130

Replace a config value at a given path. Wraps `config.set`. Destructive — overwrites the previous value. Prefer openclaw_config_patch for partial updates.

NameTypeReqDescription
instancestringOptional OpenClaw instance to route this call to (e.g. 'default', 'work'). Falls back to the active default instance, or the OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL/TOKEN env vars when set. List configured instances wi…

valueNew value (any JSON)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

openclaw_cron_add ~212

Create a new OpenClaw cron job. Wraps `cron.add`. Field names match the gateway wire format (verified by the Control panel SPA + live calls), NOT the README placeholders sometimes seen in the MCP source: schedule uses `expr`/`tz` (cron) or `everyMs` (every) or `at` (exact); payload.agentTurn uses `message` and `timeoutSeconds`. Examples: `{ schedule: { kind: "cron", expr: "0 13 * * 5", tz: "Europe/Paris" }, payload: { kind: "agentTurn", message: "...", timeoutSeconds: 180 } }`.

NameTypeReqDescription

openclaw_cron_add_once ~399

Create a one-shot reminder/job that fires exactly once at a given absolute timestamp, then auto-deletes. Synthesizes an `exact`-kind schedule with `deleteAfterRun: true`. Pass `at` as RFC3339 (e.g. '2026-05-08T09:00:00+02:00') and a `message`.

openclaw_cron_add_weekly ~452

Create a cron job that fires once a week at a fixed local time. Synthesizes a `cron`-kind schedule and an `agentTurn` payload, then calls `cron.add`. Pass `dayOfWeek` (mon..sun), `hour` (0-23), `minute` (0-59), `tz` (IANA, defaults to Europe/Paris), and `message`. Optional channel delivery: pass `channel` + `to`.

openclaw_cron_update ~280

Update an existing OpenClaw cron job in place. Wraps `cron.update`. Avoids the remove + re-add dance when you just want to change schedule, timeout, payload, or delivery. Wire format (verified live against gateway 2026.4.12+): `{ id|jobId: string, patch: object }` — pass the job id and a `patch` object containing only the fields you want to change. Older shape `{ job: { id, ...fields } }` is auto-translated for backward compat with pre-0.5.1 callers.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringCron job id (preferred). Pass either `id` or `jobId`.

openclaw_device_pair_list ~110

openclaw_device_repair ~215

Recover from the `expected Uint8Array of length 32, got length=0` failure mode (empty `device.privateKey`). Backs up `store.json` to `store.json.bak.<ts>`, wipes the broken device + cached tokens (keeps gateway URL + token configs), and drops the matching keychain entries. The next call to any scoped tool regenerates a fresh Ed25519 keypair and surfaces a new `pendingPairing.requestId` to approve in the Control panel. The `instance` arg is accepted but currently no-op — the local Store is shared across all instances. **Destructive — run only when openclaw_device_status reports the empty-private-key failure mode.**

openclaw_device_status ~127

Show this MCP's local device identity, pairing status, current scopes (if any), and any pending pairing requestId. Triggers a fresh connect attempt, so it doubles as a 'retry pairing' command after approval. Use when scoped methods fail with 'missing scope: operator.read'.
