Send notifications back to the OpenClaw session that dispatched you.
The Command
openclaw gateway wake --text "Your message here" --mode now
That's it. One command.
When to Use
Call this once at the very end of your task:
# ✅ Task completed
openclaw gateway wake --text "Done: Created PR #42 with OAuth implementation" --mode now
openclaw gateway wake --text "Failed: Could not push branch - permission denied" --mode now
✅ Blocked on somethingopenclaw gateway wake --text "Blocked: Need API credentials to continue" --mode now
**Don't** send multiple notifications:
```bash
# ❌ Unnecessary progress updates
openclaw gateway wake --text "Starting work..." --mode now
openclaw gateway wake --text "Halfway done..." --mode now
Message Format
Keep it short and useful:
Done: <what you accomplished>
Failed: <what went wrong>
Blocked: <what you need>
Include links when relevant (PR URLs, file paths, error logs).
Example Workflow
When dispatched with "implement feature X and make a PR":
# 1. Do your work
git checkout -b feature/x
# ... implement feature ...
git add -A && git commit -m "feat: implement X"
git push -u origin feature/x
gh pr create --title "feat: implement X" --body "..."
# 2. Notify when done (LAST step)
openclaw gateway wake --text "Done: PR #15 created - https://github.com/org/repo/pull/15" --mode now
Troubleshooting
If the command fails:
# Check if openclaw is available
which openclaw
# Check gateway status
openclaw gateway status
If gateway isn't running, the notification won't deliver — but that's okay, the user will check on you eventually.
