About Crabwalk
Crabwalk is an open source companion monitor for OpenClaw, the agent formerly known as Clawdbot. It connects to the OpenClaw gateway over a WebSocket and shows agent activity in real time as a live node graph, so you can watch thinking states, tool calls and response chains unfold as your agents work.
It is built for people running OpenClaw agents across messaging platforms who want visibility into what those agents are doing. It monitors sessions on WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord and Slack at once, lets you expand nodes to inspect tool arguments and payloads, filters sessions by platform and searches by recipient. A workspace explorer browses the agent's local files. It can be installed by pasting a skill link into an OpenClaw agent, through a CLI with start, stop, status and update commands, or as a Docker container, and the CLI detects the local gateway token automatically and prints a QR code for opening the monitor on a phone.
Crabwalk is free and released under the MIT license, with source on GitHub. There is no hosted or paid version.
Because it depends on the OpenClaw gateway, Crabwalk is only useful alongside an OpenClaw installation; it does not monitor other agent frameworks.
