This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 25, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Built a deliberately broken OpenClaw config and ran the skill's seven-point checklist live: it flagged all four planted faults (journal_mode=delete, memorySearch disabled, gateway bind 0.0.0.0, memory-core plugin off), and every remediation one-liner from the body executed verbatim and fixed them with the config staying valid JSON. Encodes real OpenClaw-specific knowledge a bare model would not reliably have; value is fully gated on actually running OpenClaw, and the bundled auto-diagnostic.sh has a set -e bug that aborts after the first failing check.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 4/5
  • Output vs. baseline 7/10
  • Docs & honesty 4/5

What Agent Doctor does

Diagnoses an OpenClaw agent across seven categories (memory/WAL, crons, config, files, gateway, system, security) and proposes exact fix commands that are applied only after user confirmation. Triggers on requests like 'self-check', 'health check', or 'diagnose yourself'. Useful mainly for OpenClaw operators, especially after an OpenClaw update.

How to install Agent Doctor

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

Commands — how to trigger Agent Doctor

  • /agent-doctor Self-diagnosis and guided repair for OpenClaw agents: memory, crons, gateway, se

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • Run a self-check on my OpenClaw agent after the update
  • Diagnose why my OpenClaw memory and gateway aren't working
  • Health check my OpenClaw config and fix any WAL issues
