What is Echo Test?

Echo Test serves as the foundational diagnostic tool for developers working within the Openclaw environment. Its primary purpose is to provide a simple, reliable mechanism to verify that the agent's communication pipeline is fully operational. By reflecting any provided input back to the user along with a real-time timestamp, it allows for quick validation of the installation and configuration of various Openclaw Skills.

Echo Test Use Cases

  • Verifying the initial setup and installation of the agent environment.
  • Debugging communication latency between the user and the skill executor.
  • Testing the basic message-handling capabilities of new Openclaw Skills integrations.
  • Confirming that the system time and locale settings are correctly configured on the host machine.

How Echo Test Works

  1. The user sends a text string to the agent.
  2. The Openclaw Skills runner identifies and triggers the Echo Test module.
  3. The skill captures the input string and fetches the current system date and time.
  4. The skill generates a response payload echoing the original message and the time data.
  5. The result is returned to the user to confirm a successful round-trip communication.

Echo Test Setup

To deploy this skill to your agent, run the following command in your terminal:

openclaw install echo-test

Once installed, you can trigger it by sending any message to your agent while the skill is active.

Echo Test Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill processes data using a straightforward request-response model:

Property Data Type Description
message string The original text provided by the user
server_time string The formatted current time on the execution environment
version string The current version of the skill (1.0.0)

Echo Test Advanced Features

  • Minimalist design for maximum compatibility across different Openclaw Skills runners.
  • Zero-configuration required for immediate deployment and testing.
  • Useful for automated health checks in CI/CD pipelines for agent-based workflows.
  • Provides a baseline for performance benchmarking of the skill execution layer.
