FAQPage Schema
How do I safely update channel policies in OpenClaw configuration?

Safely update OpenClaw configuration by applying validated JSON and JQ edit patterns to adjust channel policies like dmPolicy and groupPolicy. This approach enforces deterministic changes and provides rollback options before you restart the gateway.

What is the best way to validate OpenClaw bot configuration against best practices?

Validating OpenClaw bot configuration involves checking current settings against best practices for channels, autopilot, and security. This structured guidance diagnoses error-prone settings and confirms reliable operation before applying changes to the gateway.

Can I add or remove accounts from openclaw.json without causing downtime?

You can add or remove accounts from openclaw.json with minimal downtime by using safe backup procedures and rollback options. Configuration changes are applied deterministically, requiring a gateway restart afterward to ensure new settings take effect safely.

How do I rollback OpenClaw autopilot settings after a failed configuration change?

Rolling back OpenClaw autopilot settings requires using the skill's safe backup and rollback options. It constrains actions to the configuration space, ensuring failed JSON or JQ edits to autopilot workflows can be reversed to maintain reliable bot operation.

Why does OpenClaw configuration validation use jq for edits?

OpenClaw configuration validation uses jq to provide safe edit patterns for JSON files like openclaw.json. Using jq ensures modifications to channel policies, agent settings, and security rules are deterministic, auditable, and constrained to the configuration space.

Are there limitations when applying security rules to OpenClaw gateway configurations?

Limitations when applying security rules to OpenClaw gateway configurations include being constrained to the OpenClaw configuration space. Actions are strictly validated and must be followed by a gateway restart, meaning changes outside this defined scope are unsupported.
