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.

Get the gateway's agent identity (current default agent metadata). Wraps `agent.identity.get`. Read-only.

Block until the agent finishes its current turn (or timeout). Wraps `agent.wait`. Long-running — uses the configured request timeout (default 30s).

Create a new agent configuration. Wraps `agents.create`. Pass `agentId`, `displayName`, `model`, plus any extra fields the gateway accepts (system prompt, default tools, etc.). Call openclaw_agents_list first to see the full shape of an existing agent.

Delete an agent configuration. Wraps `agents.delete`. Destructive — confirm before calling. Sessions tied to this agent may be orphaned.

Fetch a specific agent file's contents (system prompt, tool definitions, etc.). Wraps `agents.files.get`. Read-only. Pass either `path` (full path including the file name) or `name` (file basename) — not both.

List files attached to an agent (instructions, system files, etc.). Wraps `agents.files.list`. Read-only.

Write or overwrite an agent file. Wraps `agents.files.set`. Destructive — overwrites existing content silently. Pass `agentId`, `path` or `name`, and `content` or `body` (gateway accepts both names depending on version).

List configured agents on the gateway (e.g. 'main', custom agents). Wraps `agents.list`. Read-only.

Update an existing agent's configuration. Wraps `agents.update`. Pass `agentId` + only the fields you want to change. Schema is permissive — gateway accepts the same shape as `agents.create`.

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.

Log out / disconnect a delivery channel. Wraps `channels.logout`. Destructive — channel won't deliver until re-authenticated. Pass the channel name (e.g. 'telegram').

Get the connection status of delivery channels (Telegram, email, etc.). Wraps `channels.status`. Read-only.

Abort an in-flight chat turn for a session. Wraps `chat.abort`. Wire format (verified live): requires `sessionKey`. Destructive — cancels running LLM call.

Fetch chat history for a session. Wraps `chat.history`. Wire format (verified live): requires `sessionKey`; accepts `limit`. Read-only. The pre-0.5.x `agentId`/`sessionId`/`offset` fields are rejected.

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.

List the slash-commands registered in the gateway (commands the agent or operator can invoke). Wraps `commands.list`. Read-only.

Apply pending config changes (commit). Wraps `config.apply`. Destructive — propagates buffered config to running components.

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+).

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.

Get the JSON schema describing the gateway's config structure. Wraps `config.schema`. Read-only — useful before openclaw_config_set/patch to know which paths exist.

Look up the schema description for a specific config path. Wraps `config.schema.lookup`. Read-only.

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

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 } }`.

Create a cron job that fires every day at a fixed local time. Synthesizes the `cron`-kind schedule + `agentTurn` payload. Pass `hour`, `minute`, `tz`, `message`. Optional channel delivery via `channel` + `to`.

Create a cron job that fires every N minutes/hours regardless of clock time. Synthesizes an `every`-kind schedule. Pass either `intervalMinutes` or `intervalHours` (the tool computes `everyMs`). Use for monitoring jobs that don't care about wall-clock alignment.

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`.

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`.

List configured OpenClaw cron jobs. Wraps the gateway JSON-RPC method `cron.list`. Returns jobs with name, schedule, payload kind, and enabled state.

Delete an OpenClaw cron job by id. Destructive — confirm before calling. Wraps `cron.remove`.

Trigger an immediate run of a specific OpenClaw cron job by id. Wraps `cron.run`.

List recent runs of a specific OpenClaw cron job. Wraps `cron.runs`. Pass `compact: true` to truncate each run's `summary` to 200 chars (saves tokens when scanning many runs); a `summaryTruncated` flag is added per entry. Each entry also gets a `runAtAgo` field (e.g. "3h ago") for readability.

Get the OpenClaw cron scheduler status (enabled flag, next-run timestamp, recent failures). Wraps `cron.status`.

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.

Approve a pending device pairing request. Requires operator.write scope. Wraps `device.pair.approve`.

List pending and paired devices known to the gateway. Useful for confirming that this MCP's device shows up in 'pending' before approval. Wraps `device.pair.list` (operator scope).

Reject a pending device pairing request. Wraps `device.pair.reject`.

Remove a paired device from the gateway. Wraps `device.pair.remove`. Destructive — the device will need to re-pair to reconnect.

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>`, and wipes the broken device + cached tokens (keeps gateway URL + token configs). 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.**

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'.

Revoke a device's authentication token. Wraps `device.token.revoke`. Destructive — the device must re-pair (or use a freshly issued token).

Rotate a device's authentication token (issues a new one, invalidates the old). Wraps `device.token.rotate`. Destructive — the device's currently cached token stops working.

Backfill the dream diary from past sessions (re-runs dreaming on history). Wraps `doctor.memory.backfillDreamDiary`. Mutates — can be expensive in tokens.

Deduplicate dream diary entries. Wraps `doctor.memory.dedupeDreamDiary`. Mutates.

Read the dream diary (the gateway's REM/light dream artifacts that promote into MEMORY.md). Wraps `doctor.memory.dreamDiary`. Read-only.

Repair corrupted dreaming artifacts (e.g. orphan files, broken JSON). Wraps `doctor.memory.repairDreamingArtifacts`. Mutates.

Wipe the dream diary entirely. Wraps `doctor.memory.resetDreamDiary`. DESTRUCTIVE — confirm before calling. Loses all promoted-into-memory candidates.

Wipe the grounded short-term memory store. Wraps `doctor.memory.resetGroundedShortTerm`. DESTRUCTIVE — agents lose their recent recall.

Get the memory subsystem health (short-term store, dream diary, grounding state). Wraps `doctor.memory.status`. Read-only.

Get details of a specific exec approval request (command, args, agent, status). Wraps `exec.approval.get`. Read-only.
