Hummingbot Heartbeat
If you're running Hummingbot bots and want to stay on top of their health without constantly SSH-ing in, this cron skill pings your chat every hour with a formatted status dump: API health, Gateway container uptime, active bots and executors, and current portfolio balances with USD values. It's built for the OpenClaw framework and hits the Hummingbot API endpoints you'd check manually anyway. The output is clean and scannable, which matters when you're getting updates in Telegram or Discord throughout the day. Assumes you've already got Hummingbot deployed with the API running, and it gracefully skips the Docker checks if that's not available.

openclaw cron add \
--name "hummingbot-heartbeat" \
--description "Hourly Hummingbot status check" \
--every 1h \

--channel telegram \
--message "Run this and send output verbatim: python3 <SKILL_PATH>/scripts/bot_status.py"
