What is Config Validator Skill?

The Config Validator Skill is an essential utility for developers working with OpenClaw, designed to verify the validity of configuration fields and values. It provides a complete schema reference and enumeration of valid values, acting as a preventative measure against deployment errors. By using this tool within the ecosystem of Openclaw Skills, users can ensure their agent environments are stable and correctly configured.

This skill eliminates guesswork by offering documented schemas for channels, agents, gateways, sessions, and tools. Whether you are setting up a new Telegram bot or configuring complex LLM fallbacks, the Config Validator serves as the source of truth for your configuration files.

Config Validator Skill Use Cases

  • Reviewing configuration schemas before making manual changes to prevent syntax errors.
  • Automatically validating configuration integrity after updates via the safe-config-workflow.
  • Querying valid enumeration values for specific fields, such as channel streaming modes.
  • Searching for standardized configuration examples for various messaging platforms and gateways.

How Config Validator Skill Works

  1. The user or an automated process submits a configuration field or a full JSON/YAML snippet for review.
  2. The skill identifies the relevant module (e.g., channels, gateway, or models) to locate the corresponding schema.
  3. It performs a strict validation check, ensuring the field exists, the data type matches (string, number, boolean, etc.), and the value is within the allowed enum set.
  4. Detailed feedback is generated, highlighting specific errors or confirming that the configuration is valid for use within Openclaw Skills.

Config Validator Skill Setup

The Config Validator is typically pre-integrated into the OpenClaw environment. To utilize it via the command line or within your agent workflows, ensure your local schema files are up to date:

# Check the current configuration status
openclaw doctor

# To fix common configuration issues automatically
openclaw doctor --fix

Config Validator Skill Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill organizes its validation logic across several specialized markdown schema files:

File Content Description
schema-channels.md Full schema for Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, etc.
schema-agents.md Agent logic including defaults, list, heartbeat, and sandbox settings.
schema-gateway.md Network and security settings like port, bind, auth, and reload.
schema-models.md LLM provider configurations, fallbacks, and aliases.
quick-reference.md Fast access to the 50 most common core configuration fields.

Config Validator Skill Advanced Features

  • Seamless integration with safe-config-workflow for automated 'verify-before-apply' logic.
  • Support for complex data types including nested objects and specific array structures.
  • Real-time synchronization with official OpenClaw documentation sources to ensure schema accuracy.
  • Multi-channel support providing platform-specific validation for diverse messaging environments.
