Always On, Always Monitored
Your OpenClaw agent runs 24/7 on secure managed infrastructure. Our monitoring ensures it stays that way. Automatic health checks detect issues before they affect your workflows.
Why Uptime Matters for AI Assistants
An AI assistant that goes down is worse than not having one at all. If your clients, customers, or team members are accustomed to getting responses through your AI, an outage means unanswered messages, missed tasks, and lost trust.
Self-hosted instances are only as reliable as the person monitoring them. If your server crashes at 3 AM on a Saturday, how quickly do you notice? How quickly can you fix it?
RunTheAgent provides continuous monitoring for every managed OpenClaw instance (previously known as MoltBot and before that ClawdBot). Automated health checks run regularly, detecting issues before they escalate. When problems are found, the platform takes corrective action automatically. You get reliability without having to watch a server dashboard.
Monitoring Capabilities
Automated Health Checks
Regular health checks verify that your instance is running correctly, responding to requests, and maintaining connections to your messaging channels. Issues are detected in minutes, not hours.
Automatic Recovery
When monitoring detects an issue, the platform attempts automatic recovery: restarting services, reconnecting channels, and restoring normal operation without manual intervention.
Dashboard Status View
Your dashboard shows current instance status, uptime history, and any recent incidents. At a glance, you know whether your assistant is healthy.
Channel Connection Monitoring
Individual messaging channel connections are monitored separately. If your WhatsApp connection drops but Telegram remains active, the monitoring detects and addresses the specific disconnection.
Monitoring Performance
Monitoring in Practice
Middle-of-the-Night Recovery
At 3:17 AM, a temporary network issue causes your instance to lose its WhatsApp connection. Monitoring detects the disconnection within minutes, automatically reconnects, and your assistant continues handling messages. You never notice because there is nothing to notice.
Resource Issue Detection
Your assistant has been handling an unusually high volume of browser automation tasks, consuming more memory than usual. Monitoring detects the resource pressure, optimizes the instance, and prevents a crash before it happens.
Update Verification
After an automatic update is applied, monitoring runs a comprehensive health check to verify everything is working correctly with the new version. If the update causes an issue, it is detected and addressed immediately.
Why Self-Hosted Monitoring Falls Short
Self-hosting OpenClaw means self-monitoring OpenClaw. Most self-hosters set up a free UptimeRobot check and call it done. But a simple HTTP ping only tells you the server is responding; it does not verify that your messaging channels are connected, that browser automation is working, or that your AI model API key is still valid.
RunTheAgent' monitoring goes deeper. It verifies not just that your instance is running, but that each capability is functional: messaging channels are connected and responding, browser automation is operational, and your AI model is accessible. When any of these specific components fail, the system detects the exact issue and takes targeted recovery action.
This granular monitoring is the difference between discovering at 3 PM that your WhatsApp connection dropped at 6 AM (9 hours of missed messages) and having the connection automatically restored within minutes of the disconnection.
What Monitoring Checks (and How Often)
Instance Health
Verifies the core OpenClaw process is running, responsive, and consuming normal resources. Checked frequently to catch crashes or hangs quickly.
Channel Connectivity
Confirms each connected messaging platform (WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack) maintains an active connection. Detects and reconnects dropped channels automatically.
Resource Usage
Monitors CPU, memory, and disk usage to prevent resource exhaustion. Takes preventive action before limits are reached to avoid crashes.
