Operational Heartbeat

Automated daily health check for OpenClaw instances. Verifies memory file presence, detects stale/overdue cron jobs, and surfaces system status. Intended for scheduled execution via cron.

1. Ensure memory file exists for today:

   • Path: memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md
   • If missing, create with minimal template

2. Check cron job health:

   • Use cron list to fetch all jobs
   • For each job, verify state.nextRunAtMs is in the future
   • Flag jobs with consecutiveErrors > 0 or lastRunStatus != 'ok'
   • Count stale/overdue jobs

3. Optional: promote learnings from recent memory files (if configured)

4. Report summary:

   • Memory file: created/exists
   • Cron jobs: total, healthy, stale count
   • Any errors or warnings

Implementation notes:

• Use a small Node.js script to parse cron JSON and filter stale jobs
• Comparison: new Date().getTime() vs nextRunAtMs
• Consider timezone-aware scheduling
• Exit 0 if healthy; non-zero if issues found
