A background service that automates OpenClaw updates, pre-flight health checks, and instant rollbacks for self-hosted instances
Developers running self-hosted OpenClaw spend more time on Docker setup, SSH config, YAML files, and uptime management than on building agent workflows. Every update has roughly a 25% chance of breaking response delivery. This service monitors for new releases, runs pre-flight checks, takes a config snapshot, applies the update, validates channels, and auto-rolls back within 60 seconds if any channel fails.
