OpenClaw Updater

Safely update OpenClaw with automatic pre-flight safety checks and rollback capability.

Pre-Update Checklist

Before running openclaw update, always run the pre-update script:

bash scripts/pre-update.sh

Optional: specify a backup script to run during pre-flight:

BACKUP_SCRIPT=~/repo/scripts/backup-openclaw.sh bash scripts/pre-update.sh

The script will:

Find all workspace* directories under ~/.openclaw/
Git commit any uncommitted changes (init git if missing)
Back up openclaw.json to /tmp/openclaw.json.bak
Run the backup script if provided
Save the current version to /tmp/openclaw-prev-version.txt

Telegram Notification Setup

The update script sends success/failure notifications via Telegram Bot API (bypasses OpenClaw gateway, so it works even if the update breaks the gateway).

Create ~/.openclaw/.telegram-notify.env:

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<your-bot-token>
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID=<your-chat-id>

chmod 600 ~/.openclaw/.telegram-notify.env

The bot token is the same one used by your OpenClaw Telegram channel. Chat ID can be found via openclaw directory.

Update (with notification)

Run the full update with automatic pre-flight + notification:

bash scripts/update.sh

This will: pre-flight → update → wait for gateway → notify via Telegram.

Update (manual)

After pre-flight passes:

openclaw update

Post-Update Verification

After updating, verify:

openclaw status
openclaw gateway status

Check that:

Version shows the new release
Gateway is running
All agents are responsive

Rollback

If the update breaks something:

bash scripts/rollback.sh

The script will:

Read the saved previous version from /tmp/openclaw-prev-version.txt
Install that version via npm install -g openclaw@<version>
Optionally restore openclaw.json from backup
Restart the gateway

Manual Rollback
