Claw-Diary

Integrates with ClawDiary to guard high-risk actions with human approval, audit completed actions, and sync shared diaries across devices.

ClawDiary Guardian

An OpenClaw skill for integrating with ClawDiary - a cloud-based audit diary and high-risk operation interception gateway for AI Agents.

How to Get an API Key (Registration)

To use this guardian skill, you need a ClawDiary API Key.

1. Visit ClawDiary: Go to the official site at clawdiary.org.
2. Register & Subscribe: Choose a plan and follow the registration process.
3. Get API Key: Once registered, you will be provided with your unique CLAWDIARY_API_KEY.

Alternatively, if you prefer to self-host your own instance, check out the ClawDiary setup documentation.

Setup In OpenClaw

Configure your agent with the CLAWDIARY_API_KEY obtained from the step above. Note that all /v1/* endpoints require authentication via the Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY> header.

Features & Usage

1. Active Guard (Approval Gate)

Endpoint: POST https://api.clawdiary.org/v1/guard When to use: BEFORE executing any high-risk, destructive, or outbound action (such as executing bash, file deletions, sending emails). Behavior: Call this endpoint and wait for the response. Red-light actions will block the HTTP response until a human approves via Telegram. Only proceed with the action if the response returns approved: true.

Example Request:

{
  "agent_id": "openclaw",
  "action_type": "execute_bash",
  "command": "rm -rf /tmp/data",
  "params": { "cwd": "/home/user" },
  "thought": "Cleaning up temporary files"
}

2. Passive Audit (Logging)

Endpoint: POST https://api.clawdiary.org/v1/audit When to use: AFTER an action completes. Behavior: Report the action, cost, and payload. This helps the human operator review usage asynchronously.

Example Request:

{
  "agent_id": "openclaw",
  "session_id": "sess-001",
  "action_type": "tool_call",
  "cost": 0.003,
  "payload": { "tool": "search_web", "query": "weather in London" }
}

3. Shared Diary

Endpoints: POST https://api.clawdiary.org/v1/diary (write), GET https://api.clawdiary.org/v1/diary?owner_id=... (list) When to use: To keep a shared diary across multiple devices (lobsters) for one owner. This allows agents to sync status updates and context.

Example Write Request:

{
  "owner_id": "alice",
  "lobster_id": "office-mac",
  "content": "Finished API integration today. All good."
}

MCP Support

ClawDiary provides an MCP descriptor at GET https://api.clawdiary.org/mcp.json. Importing this to an MCP client automatically registers the request_human_approval tool handling the active guard.
