AI Analysis

●●SolidSolve My ProblemDark Horse

Fixes OpenClaw's 80 daily bug reports with AI diagnosis, absorbs the API cost for users.

Strengths
  • •Read-only system scan collects config, logs, gateway status, and plist without modifying anything first.
  • •Retry logic attempts up to 9 different fix strategies if initial diagnosis doesn't resolve the issue.
  • •No API key required, project absorbs Claude Sonnet costs for all diagnostic requests.
Weaknesses
  • •Only useful for OpenClaw users, which is a tiny subset of the AI assistant community.
  • •AI wrapper pattern means diagnosis quality depends entirely on prompt engineering and model updates.
Target Audience

OpenClaw users experiencing gateway crashes or config corruption

Post Description

OpenClaw has 80+ bug reports per day on GitHub, mostly gateway crashes and config corruption after updates. I got tired of debugging my AI assistant with another AI chat, so I built this.

npx clawaid — collects system state (config, logs, gateway, plist), sends to Claude Sonnet for diagnosis, then walks you through fixes step by step. All commands run locally with user confirmation.

Launched today: 11 real users, one had a completely unconfigured macOS install that got auto-fixed in 5 steps. Three Windows users hit a bug where OpenClaw's own CLI hardcodes /bin/zsh — the AI correctly identified it and gave manual workarounds.

We absorb the AI cost. Open source. No API key needed.
