# Health Checks (CLI)
|
||
|
||
Short guide to verify the WhatsApp Web / Baileys stack without guessing.
|
||
|
||
## Quick checks
|
||
- `pnpm clawdis status --json` — confirms creds exist (`web.linked`), shows auth age (`authAgeMs`), heartbeat interval, and where the session store lives.
|
||
- Send `/status` in WhatsApp/WebChat to see agent readiness, session context usage, current thinking/verbose options, and when the web creds were last refreshed (relink if it looks stale) without invoking the agent.
|
||
- `pnpm clawdis heartbeat --verbose --dry-run` — runs the heartbeat path end-to-end (session resolution, message creation) without sending anything. Drop `--dry-run` or add `--message "Ping"` to actually send.
|
||
- `pnpm clawdis gateway --verbose --heartbeat-now` — spins the full monitor loop, fires a heartbeat immediately, and will reconnect per `web.reconnect` settings. Good for soak testing.
|
||
- Logs: tail `/tmp/clawdis/clawdis.log` and filter for `web-heartbeat`, `web-reconnect`, `web-auto-reply`, `web-inbound`.
|
||
|
||
## Deep diagnostics
|
||
- Creds on disk: `ls -l ~/.clawdis/credentials/creds.json` (mtime should be recent).
|
||
- Session store: `ls -l ~/.clawdis/sessions.json` (path can be overridden in config). Count and recent recipients are surfaced via `status`.
|
||
- Relink flow: `pnpm clawdis logout && pnpm clawdis login --provider web --verbose` when status codes 409–515 or `loggedOut` appear in logs.
|
||
|
||
## When something fails
|
||
- `logged out` or status 409–515 → relink with `clawdis logout` then `clawdis login --provider web`.
|
||
- Repeated reconnect exits → tune `web.reconnect` (flags: `--web-retries`, `--web-retry-initial`, `--web-retry-max`) and rerun gateway.
|
||
- No inbound messages → confirm linked phone is online and sender is allowed; use `pnpm clawdis heartbeat --all --verbose` to test each known recipient.
|
||
|
||
## Dedicated "health" command
|
||
`pnpm clawdis health --json` runs a connect-only probe (no sends) and reports: linked creds, auth age, Baileys connect result/status code, session-store summary, and a probe duration. It exits non-zero if not linked or if the connect fails/timeouts. Use `--timeout <ms>` to override the 10s default.
