Examine agent sessions. Diagnose failures. Prescribe fixes.
/clawdoc (slash command — default: headline mode)Produces a compact, tweetable health check:
🩻 clawdoc — 3 findings across 12 sessions (last 7 days)
💸 $47.20 spent — $31.60 was waste (67% recoverable)
🔴 Retry loop on exec burned $18.40 in one session
🟡 Opus running 34 heartbeats ($8.20 → $0.12 on Haiku)
🟡 SOUL.md is 9,200 tokens — 14% of your context window
Run: bash {baseDir}/scripts/headline.sh ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions
/clawdoc full or "give me a full diagnosis"Runs all 14 pattern detectors and produces the complete diagnosis report with evidence and prescriptions.
/clawdoc brief or "clawdoc one-liner for daily brief"Single-line summary for morning cron integration:
Yesterday: 8 sessions, $3.40, 1 warning (cron context growth on daily-report)
Run: bash {baseDir}/scripts/headline.sh --brief ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions
Also activates when user says: "what went wrong", "why did that fail", "debug", "diagnose", "why was that so expensive", "where are my tokens going", "cost breakdown", "health check", "check my agent", "what's wrong", "examine"
Find the most recent session file and run:
bash {baseDir}/scripts/examine.sh <session.jsonl>
This outputs a JSON summary with turns, cost, token counts, tool call frequency, and error count.
Run all 14 pattern detectors against a specific session file:
bash {baseDir}/scripts/diagnose.sh <session.jsonl> | jq .
Pipe diagnose output into prescribe for a formatted report with fix recommendations:
bash {baseDir}/scripts/diagnose.sh <session.jsonl> | bash {baseDir}/scripts/prescribe.sh
Show per-turn cost waterfall for a session:
bash {baseDir}/scripts/cost-waterfall.sh <session.jsonl> | jq '.[0:5]'
Analyze pattern recurrence across multiple sessions in a directory:
bash {baseDir}/scripts/history.sh <sessions-dir> | jq .
When the user wants a comprehensive diagnosis, run the scripts above and synthesize findings into this report format:
## 🩻 Diagnosis — [date]
### Patient summary
- Sessions examined: N
- Period: [date range]
- Total spend: $X.XX
- Total tokens: XXk in / XXk out
### Findings
#### 🔴 Critical
[Infinite retry loops, context exhaustion, tool-as-text failures]
Each finding includes: what happened, evidence, estimated cost impact, and specific prescription.
#### 🟡 Warning
[Cost spikes, model routing waste, cron accumulation, compaction damage, workspace overhead]
#### 🟢 Healthy
[What's working well — efficient sessions, good model routing]
### Prescriptions (ranked by cost impact)
1. [Highest-impact fix with specific config change or command]
2. [Second highest]
3. [Third]
### Cost breakdown
[Per-day costs for the examination period]
[Top 3 most expensive sessions with root cause]
| # | Pattern | Severity | Key indicator |
|---|---|---|---|
| --- | --------- | ---------- | -------------- |
| 1 | Infinite retry loop | 🔴 Critical | Same tool called 5+ times consecutively |
| 2 | Non-retryable error retried | 🔴 High | Validation error → identical retry |
| 3 | Tool calls as text | 🔴 High | Tool names in assistant text, no toolCall blocks |
| 4 | Context window exhaustion | 🟡-🔴 | inputTokens > 70% of contextTokens |
| 5 | Sub-agent replay | 🟡 Medium | Duplicate completion messages in parent |
| 6 | Cost spike | 🟡-🔴 | Session cost > 2x rolling average |
| 7 | Skill selection miss | 🟢 Low | "command not found" after skill activation |
| 8 | Model routing waste | 🟡 Medium | Premium model on heartbeat/cron |
| 9 | Cron context accumulation | 🟡 Medium | Growing inputTokens across cron runs |
| 10 | Compaction damage | 🟡 Medium | Post-compaction tool call repetition |
| 11 | Workspace token overhead | 🟡 Medium | Baseline > 15% of context window |
| 12 | Task drift | 🟡 Medium | Post-compaction directory divergence or 10+ reads without edits |
| 13 | Unbounded walk | 🟠 High | Repeated unscoped find/grep -r flooding output |
| 14 | Tool misuse | 🟡 Medium | Same file read 3+ times without edit, or identical search repeated |
