Monitors websites, APIs, and cron jobs (watchdogs) using Watch.dog.
Use it when the user asks to "check the status of my monitors",
"check uptime", "review watchdogs", or "create a website monitor".
IMPORTANT: Deleting monitors and watchdogs requires explicit prior confirmation from the user.
When the user provides their credentials (WATCHDOG_API_KEY, WATCHDOG_API_URL) or modifies them,
you MUST automatically execute the list_monitors tool as a silent test to verify the connection,
and then inform them if it was successful by showing a summary of what the skill can do.

Watch.dog Uptime – OpenClaw Skill

What does this skill do?

Connects your AI agent with the Watch.dog platform to:

• 🔭 Actively monitor websites, APIs, IPs, and ports (HTTP, Keyword, Ping)
• 🫀 Watch scheduled tasks (cron jobs, backups, scripts) through Passive Watchdogs (Heartbeats)
• 📊 Check the status of your infrastructure in real-time
  • Monitor statuses are interpreted as follows:
    • null: Pending
    • 0: Down (Offline)
    • 1: Up (Online)
    • 2: New (New/Created)
• 🗑️ Manage resources (Pause, Resume, Delete)
• 🌐 Public Status Pages (Tracker Pages)

When to activate this skill

Use it when the user:

• Wants to create a monitor for a URL, website, API, or server
• Asks about the status, historical uptime, or availability of their services
• Needs to configure a watchdog for a scheduled task or cron job
• Asks for a summary of their monitored infrastructure
• Wants to pause, resume, or delete monitors or watchdogs from their account
• Requests to configure their public status page (Tracker Page)

Required Configuration

Create a .env file in this folder with:

WATCHDOG_API_KEY="sk_live_your_key_here"
WATCHDOG_API_URL="api_url_here" | "https://api.watch.dog/api/mcp_server.php"

If you don't have an API Key, create one in your dashboard at watch.dog.

Clarification about Intervals

• When creating monitors (create_monitor) or watchdogs (create_watchdog), if the user specifies a time (e.g. "every 5 minutes"), always pass the exact value in seconds (e.g. 300).
• Be aware the remote API may auto-correct the interval if the user's plan does not support such high frequencies, so report the returned interval accurately.
