modbender Discord Doctor
Quick diagnosis and repair for Discord/Gateway availability issues, OAuth token problems, and legacy Clawdis configuration conflicts.
Usage
# Check status (diagnostic only)
discord-doctor
# Check and auto-fix issues
discord-doctor --fix
What It Checks
- Discord App - Is the Discord desktop app running (optional, for monitoring)
- Gateway Process - Is the Clawdbot gateway daemon running
- Gateway HTTP - Is the gateway responding on port 18789
- Discord Connection - Is the bot actually connected to Discord (via
clawdbot health) - Anthropic OAuth - Is your OAuth token valid or expired
- Legacy Clawdis - Detects old launchd services and config directories that cause conflicts
- Recent Activity - Shows recent Discord sessions
Auto-Fix Capabilities
When run with --fix, it can:
- Start gateway if not running
- Install missing npm packages (like discord.js, strip-ansi)
- Restart gateway after fixing dependencies
- Remove legacy launchd service (
com.clawdis.gateway.plist) - Backup legacy config (moves
~/.clawdisto~/.clawdis-backup)
Common Issues & Fixes
| Issue | Auto-Fix Action |
|---|---|
| Gateway not running | Starts gateway on port 18789 |
| Missing npm packages | Runs npm install + installs specific package |
| Discord disconnected | Restarts gateway to reconnect |
| OAuth token expired | Shows instructions to re-authenticate |
| Legacy launchd service | Removes old com.clawdis.gateway.plist |
| Legacy ~/.clawdis config | Moves to ~/.clawdis-backup |
OAuth Token Issues
If you see "Access token EXPIRED", run:
cd ~/Clawdis && npx clawdbot configure
Then select "Anthropic OAuth (Claude Pro/Max)" to re-authenticate.
Legacy Clawdis Migration
If you upgraded from Clawdis to Clawdbot, you may have legacy artifacts causing OAuth token conflicts:
- Old launchd service:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.clawdis.gateway.plist - Old config directory:
~/.clawdis/
Run discord-doctor --fix to clean these up automatically.
