Gateway crashes on startup with bad hook entries — graceful error handling needed
증상
If a user adds a hook entry to openclaw.json that points to a non-existent path, the gateway crashes on startup with an unhandled MODULE_NOT_FOUND error. The error message doesn’t indicate which hook entry is bad or how to fix it.
원인
OpenClaw gateway, skill, or agent configuration issue — root cause confirmed in the openclaw/openclaw issue tracker.
해결법
We’ve published repair scripts in our workspace repo that catch this before the gateway loads:
scripts/validate-hooks.sh— pre-startup validationscripts/fix-openclaw-config.sh— auto-repair with backup
These work but ideally the gateway itself would be resilient.
