SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Node connection and pairing can fail across Android, iOS, and macOS companions, leaving devices unable to reach the gateway or authenticate.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnose routing and pairing failures between a node and gateway.
  • Recommend fixes for common scenarios: local network, VPN/Tailscale, or public URL configurations.
  • Provide actionable steps to re-pair devices and restore connectivity.

Quick Start

Run a diagnostic on the affected node to identify the most likely route and re-establish pairing.

Frequently Asked Questions about node-connect

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix node connection and pairing failures with the OpenClaw gateway?▼

To fix node connection and pairing failures, diagnose the affected node to identify routing issues and verify gateway configurations, then follow deterministic steps to re-pair the device and restore connectivity.

Why does my Android companion fail to reach the gateway over Tailscale?▼

Android companions fail to reach the gateway over Tailscale when routing or gateway configurations are incorrect. Run a diagnostic to verify the gateway.remote.url and plugin-pair settings, then re-pair the device.

Does this diagnose local Wi-Fi and public URL setups for macOS companions?▼

Yes, this diagnoses macOS companions across local Wi-Fi, VPN/Tailscale, and public URL setups, verifying gateway.bind and gateway.remote.url configurations to identify and fix connection failures.

What is the best way to re-pair a device using a QR or setup code?▼

The best way to re-pair a device using a QR or setup code is to run a diagnostic on the affected node, verify the plugin-pair configurations, and follow the guided re-pairing steps to restore connectivity.

When should I manually verify gateway.bind and gateway.remote.url for connectivity?▼

You should manually verify gateway.bind and gateway.remote.url when a node diagnostic identifies configuration mismatches, particularly across local network, Tailscale, or public URL setups causing pairing failures.
