| 26 | ## Features |
| 27 | |
| 28 | - **Auto-monitor** — checks Gateway health every 30 seconds |
| 29 | - **Auto-repair** — runs `openclaw doctor --fix` on failure (up to 3 attempts) |
| 30 | - **Auto-rollback** — resets workspace to last stable git commit if repair fails |
| 31 | - **Daily snapshots** — automatic daily `git commit` of your workspace |
| 32 | - **Discord alerts** — optional webhook notifications on failures and recovery |
| 33 | |
| 34 | ## How It Works |
| 35 | |
| 36 | ``` |
| 37 | Gateway down detected |
| 38 | │ |
| 39 | ▼ |
| 40 | doctor --fix ──→ success? ──→ ✅ Done |
| 41 | (up to 3x) |
| 42 | │ all failed |
| 43 | ▼ |
| 44 | git rollback ──→ success? ──→ ✅ Done |
| 45 | │ failed |
| 46 | ▼ |
| 47 | cooldown 300s → resume monitoring |
| 48 | ``` |
| 49 | |
| 50 | ## ⚡ One-Line Deploy (OpenClaw Users) |

| 52 | Already using OpenClaw? Just tell your AI agent: |

| 54 | > **"Help me install openclaw-guardian to harden my gateway"** |
| 55 | |
| 56 | Your agent will handle everything automatically — git init, script install, and auto-start. No terminal needed. |
