Integration

Watch.dog × OpenClaw

Install the Oda Monitor skill to let your OpenClaw agent create monitors for websites/APIs and cron jobs (heartbeats), manage resources, and help you keep status communication consistent.

Example prompt → result
User: Monitor https://api.example.com every 60s and alert Slack.
Agent: Created an HTTP monitor (60s).
Agent: Configured alerts and confirmed status page link.

What your agent can do

  • Create monitors (HTTP/API, keyword, ping/port)
  • Create heartbeats for cron jobs and scheduled tasks
  • Pause/resume/delete monitors and related resources
  • Create and manage public status pages

Why it’s useful

  • Faster setup via chat
  • Repeatable workflows (naming, intervals, tags)
  • Less “ops glue” and fewer manual steps
  • Easier, consistent incident comms
