What is Tradebot Ops Monitoring & Recovery?
The Tradebot Ops skill is a critical component for developers and traders using Openclaw Skills to maintain high-availability trading systems. It focuses on the safe operation and continuous monitoring of trading bots by detecting stalls, verifying LIVE or halting states, and validating the freshness of market data. By integrating this skill, users can automate the complex task of answering whether a bot is running correctly or if market signals have become stale.
This skill prioritizes safety over aggression, ensuring that risk parameters are never adjusted automatically. Instead, it provides actionable health summaries and automated recovery procedures like clean restarts to resolve frozen charts or signal delays. It bridges the gap between raw trading data and human-readable operational status within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem.
Tradebot Ops Monitoring & Recovery Use Cases
- Monitoring bots that report a LIVE status but fail to produce heartbeat or bar updates.
- Resolving issues where charts are frozen or signal files are no longer updating.
- Verifying if it is safe to continue trading during market volatility or technical glitches.
- Generating human-readable health summaries for audit logs and operational oversight.
How Tradebot Ops Monitoring & Recovery Works
- Connectivity Check: Validates that the UI server and API status endpoints are reachable.
- Heartbeat Analysis: Reads the current operational mode, status, and position flags from the heartbeat file.
- Freshness Validation: Calculates the age of heartbeats and market bars in seconds to detect data lag.
- Signal Verification: Inspects file modification times for signals and trade CSVs to ensure active recording.
- Automated Recovery: If data is identified as stale, the skill stops the bot process and applies a clean restart.
- Post-Recovery Verification: Confirms that the last bar timestamp advances to ensure the bot is successfully back online.
Tradebot Ops Monitoring & Recovery Setup
To use Tradebot Ops within Openclaw Skills, ensure your environment is configured to track the relevant output directories.
# Define the path to your bot distribution outputs
export BOT_OUTPUT_DIR="./dist/out"
# Ensure the API service is active
curl http://localhost:3000/api/status
