Auto Updater Pro

Ask Clawdbot to set up the auto-updater:

Set up daily auto-updates for yourself and all your skills.

Or manually add the cron job:

clawdbot cron add \
  --name "Daily Auto-Update" \
  --cron "0 4 * * *" \
  --tz "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --session isolated \
  --wake now \
  --deliver \
  --message "Run daily auto-updates: check for Clawdbot updates and update all skills. Report what was updated."

Recommended Configuration (v1.1.0+)

For production use, add these settings to your cron job:

{
  "schedule": {
    "expr": "0 4 * * *",
    "kind": "cron",
    "tz": "Asia/Shanghai"
  },
  "missedRunPolicy": "run-immediately",
  "payload": {
    "kind": "agentTurn",
    "message": "...",
    "timeoutSeconds": 600
  }

Quick Start

Ask Clawdbot to set up the auto-updater:

Set up daily auto-updates for yourself and all your skills.

Or manually add the cron job:

clawdbot cron add \
  --name "Daily Auto-Update" \
  --cron "0 4 * * *" \
  --tz "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --session isolated \
  --wake now \
  --deliver \
  --message "Run daily auto-updates: check for Clawdbot updates and update all skills. Report what was updated."

Recommended Configuration (v1.1.0+)

For production use, add these settings to your cron job:

{
  "schedule": {
    "expr": "0 4 * * *",
    "kind": "cron",
    "tz": "Asia/Shanghai"
  },
  "missedRunPolicy": "run-immediately",
  "payload": {
    "kind": "agentTurn",
    "message": "...",
    "timeoutSeconds": 600
  }
}

Key Settings:

1. Schedule During Low Activity

Choose a time when you're unlikely to be using the system:

"expr": "0 4 * * *"  // 4:00 AM

2. Enable Missed Run Recovery

Prevents missing updates if Gateway is offline:

"missedRunPolicy": "run-immediately"

3. Use Email for Reports

Less intrusive than chat messages:

4. Log Everything

Always write to log file before sending reports:

5. Wait After Updates

Add 30-second delay before any Gateway restart:

sleep 30
