Hybrid DB Health

Run a quick, reliable health check for the two database surfaces in this workspace:

When combined with shared-pinecone-rag, position the pair as a Persistent Memory skill stack (retrieval + health assurance).

1. Pulse operational DB/sync layer in agents/pulse 2. RAG Pinecone layer in rag-pinecone-starter

Runbook

1. Run the bundled script:

bash scripts/check_hybrid_db.sh

2. Interpret status:

PASS: subsystem is configured and responding

WARN: subsystem exists but is not fully configured

FAIL: subsystem check execution failed

3. Report to user in plain language:

Pulse DB status

RAG DB status

Exact next fix steps if WARN/FAIL

Manual checks (if script unavailable)

Pulse DB

cd /home/Mike/.openclaw/workspace/agents/pulse
python3 openclaw_sync.py --check

Expected: Database connection OK

RAG Pinecone

cd /home/Mike/.openclaw/workspace/rag-pinecone-starter
[ -f .env ] && grep -E '^(OPENAI_API_KEY|PINECONE_API_KEY)=' .env

If either key is blank, report as not connected yet.

Optional live connectivity test (requires keys + deps):

source .venv/bin/activate
python query.py "connectivity test"

Output format

Return concise status like:

Pulse DB: PASS/FAIL

RAG Pinecone: PASS/WARN/FAIL
