SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Diagnose OpenClaw node connection and pairing failures across Android, iOS, and macOS companion apps. Use when QR/setup code/manual connect fails, local Wi-Fi works but VPS/tailnet does not, or errors mention pairing required, unauthorized, bootstrap token invalid or expired, gateway.bind, gateway.remote.url, Tailscale, or plugins.entries.device-pair.config.publicUrl.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnostic workflow to identify whether the issue is local, LAN, Tailnet, or public URL based.
  • Step-by-step guidance that surfaces canonical checks (gateway.bind, gateway.remote.url, gateway.tailscale, plugin publicUrl) and recommended corrective actions.
  • Guardrails to prevent guesswork, with questions to clarify setup before diagnosing.

Quick Start

Run the node-connect diagnostic to identify and fix a failing OpenClaw pairing by verifying gateway routes and performing the recommended checks.

What should I check when OpenClaw returns a pairing required or unauthorized error?▼

When OpenClaw returns a pairing required or unauthorized error, verify `plugins.entries.device-pair.config.publicUrl` and execute `devices list` to identify and correct authentication mismatches.

What is the best way to troubleshoot OpenClaw QR code or manual host port setup failures?▼

The best way to troubleshoot OpenClaw QR code or manual host port setup failures is to run a diagnostic that surfaces canonical gateway checks and provides concrete corrective actions without guesswork.
