Healthcheck
If you're running OpenClaw on a server or workstation, this walks you through hardening the host OS without locking yourself out. It checks SSH config, firewall rules, listening ports, updates, and backup status, then helps you pick a risk profile (VPS hardened, home balanced, dev convenience) and generates a remediation plan with rollback steps. The workflow is careful about preserving remote access and requires confirmation before touching anything. It also runs OpenClaw's own security audit tooling and can schedule periodic checks via cron. Honestly most useful if you've spun up a gateway host and want to tighten it methodically instead of guessing at iptables rules at midnight.

OpenClaw host healthcheck
Goal: assess host risk, run read-only checks, then propose staged hardening without breaking access.
Rules
- Ask before state-changing actions.
- Do not change SSH/firewall/remote access until access path is confirmed.
- Prefer reversible steps and rollback notes.
- Never claim OpenClaw manages OS firewall, SSH, or updates.
- If identity/role unknown, recommend only.
- User choices: numbered list.
- Never print secrets.
Context to infer first
- OS/version, container vs host.
- Privilege level.
- Access path: local, SSH, RDP, tailnet.
- Network exposure: public IP, reverse proxy, tunnel, LAN only.
- OpenClaw gateway status, bind, auth.
- Backup status.
- Disk encryption.
- Automatic security updates.
- Usage mode: personal workstation, local assistant box, remote server, other.
Ask only for missing facts. Simple phrasing preferred.
Read-only checks
Ask once for permission to run read-only checks. Then run relevant commands.
Common:
openclaw security audit --deep
openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw doctor --lint
