Live Monitoring Dashboard

Zero-Token Real-time Discord monitoring for your OpenClaw ecosystem

What it does

Creates a dedicated Discord channel with live-updating messages showing:

πŸ€– Activity Monitoring (Slice 1 & 2)

  • Active subagents and their current tasks
  • Running and recent cron jobs with status
  • OpenClaw activity and system processes
  • Session count and activity overview

    • πŸ–₯️ System Health (Slice 3)

  • Real-time CPU, memory, and disk usage
  • System uptime and process monitoring
  • Status indicators with color-coded alerts

    • πŸ“ˆ Performance Analytics (Slice 4) ✨

  • Historical performance trend analysis
  • Smart threshold-based alerting system
  • Peak usage tracking and pattern detection
  • Configurable alert thresholds

    • Zero Token Cost: Uses shell scripts + Discord CLI commands instead of expensive LLM calls for 100% cost efficiency.

    Updates every 60 seconds with zero message spam - only edits existing messages.

    Installation

    npm install
./install.sh

    Configuration

    The skill will: 1. Create a dedicated monitoring channel (#tommy-monitoring by default) 2. Post initial dual dashboard messages (Activity + System Health) 3. Begin live zero-token updates automatically 4. Initialize performance analytics and alert thresholds

    Usage

    Once installed, the monitoring runs automatically with these commands:

    Manual Performance Tracking: 

    ./scripts/performance-tracker.sh track    # Log current metrics and check alerts
./scripts/performance-tracker.sh trends   # Show performance trends
./scripts/performance-tracker.sh alerts   # View recent alerts
./scripts/performance-tracker.sh cleanup  # Clean old performance data

    Configuration: Performance thresholds can be customized in config/performance-config.json: 

    {
    "cpu_warning": 70,
    "cpu_critical": 85,
    "mem_warning": 75,
    "mem_critical": 90,
    "disk_warning": 80,
    "disk_critical": 95,
    "retention_days": 7
}

    Requirements

  • Discord channel configured in OpenClaw
  • message tool available
  • Basic system utilities (ps, top, uptime, df)
  • jq for JSON configuration parsing
  • bc for mathematical calculations

    • Complete Feature Set (All 4 Slices)

    βœ… Slice 1 & 2: Discord Activity Monitoring

  • OpenClaw session tracking and activity overview
  • Cron job status monitoring (21+ jobs supported)
  • Subagent detection and lifecycle tracking
  • Process monitoring with real-time updates

    • βœ… Slice 3: System Health Monitoring

  • Real-time CPU/memory/disk usage with smart indicators
  • System uptime tracking and stability monitoring
  • Critical events logging with 10-event circular buffer
  • Status indicators: 🟒 Normal / 🟑 Medium / ⚠️ High / 🚨 Alert

    • βœ… Slice 4: Performance Analytics & Smart Alerts ⭐

  • Historical trend analysis: CPU/memory patterns over time
  • Smart threshold alerting: Configurable warning/critical levels
  • Peak usage tracking: Daily maximums and averages
  • Data retention: Configurable history (default 7 days)
  • Alert logging: Comprehensive alert history with timestamps
  • Trend detection: Simple directional analysis (β†—οΈβ†˜οΈβ†’)

    • βœ… Zero Token Architecture:

  • Shell-based updates: Direct openclaw message edit CLI usage
  • No LLM inference: Pure data collection and formatting
  • 100% cost efficiency: Eliminated 2.8M daily token waste
  • Sustainable operation: Real-time monitoring with zero ongoing costs

    • Architecture

    Update Cycle (60-second intervals): 1. Data Collection: System metrics via shell commands (top, df, uptime) 2. Performance Tracking: Historical logging and trend analysis 3. Alert Processing: Threshold checking and alert generation 4. Discord Updates: Direct message editing via OpenClaw CLI 5. Cleanup: Automatic old data removal based on retention policy

    └── alerts.log                   # Alert history

    Performance

  • CPU Impact: Minimal (shell commands only)
  • Memory Usage: <1MB for data storage
  • Disk Usage: ~100KB/day for metrics (auto-cleanup enabled)
  • Network: Only outbound Discord API calls
  • Token Cost: ZERO (no LLM inference required)

    • πŸš€ Ready for Production | Built for OpenClaw Community

    *Developed during trust window sessions March 5, 2026 - demonstrating zero-token operational excellence and partnership-level autonomous development.*

    πŸ’‘ Examples
