dvcrn Gateway Notify
Automatically send notifications when the OpenClaw gateway starts up.
What It Does
Creates a hook that triggers on gateway:startup events and sends a notification message to the user's preferred channel with gateway status information.
Quick Start
Run the setup script with the user's messaging channel and address:
scripts/setup_gateway_notify.sh <channel> <address>
Examples:
scripts/setup_gateway_notify.sh imessage user@example.com
scripts/setup_gateway_notify.sh whatsapp +1234567890
scripts/setup_gateway_notify.sh telegram @username
The script will:
- Create the hook directory at
~/.openclaw/hooks/gateway-restart-notify - Generate the handler with the specified channel configuration
- Enable the hook in OpenClaw config
- Restart the gateway to activate
How It Works
The hook uses OpenClaw's internal hook system:
- Listens for
gateway:startupevents - Collects gateway status (model, time, port)
- Sends notification via the configured channel CLI
Supported Channels
See CHANNELS.md for channel-specific CLI commands and address formats.
Manual Setup
If you need to customize the hook, see MANUAL.md for step-by-step instructions.
