Haze 0f8e6f3f9e fix(gateway): implement proper OpenClaw WebSocket handshake protocol
- Send JSON-RPC connect request after WebSocket opens (required by OpenClaw Gateway)
- Use OpenClaw protocol format: { type: "req" } instead of { jsonrpc: "2.0" }
- Include proper ConnectParams: client info, auth token, protocol version
- Handle OpenClaw response format: { type: "res", ok: true/false }
- Handle OpenClaw event format: { type: "event", event: "..." }
- Wait for handshake completion before marking connection as running
- Improve error handling for connection failures

The Gateway was rejecting connections because:
1. ClawX wasn't sending the required "connect" handshake message
2. The protocol format was incorrect (standard JSON-RPC vs OpenClaw format)

ClawX Build Process

Progress

Before:

  • add ClawX-项目架构与版本大纲.md

Completed:

  • [commit_1] Project skeleton - Electron + React + TypeScript foundation (v0.1.0-alpha)
  • [commit_2] Gateway refinements - Auto-reconnection, health checks, better state management
  • [commit_3] Setup wizard - Multi-step onboarding flow with provider, channel, skill selection
  • [commit_4] Provider configuration - Secure API key storage, provider management UI
  • [commit_5] Channel connection flows - Multi-channel support with QR/token connection UI
  • [commit_6] Auto-update functionality - electron-updater integration with UI
  • [commit_7] Packaging and distribution - CI/CD, multi-platform builds, icon generation
  • [commit_8] Chat interface - Markdown support, typing indicator, welcome screen
  • [commit_9] Skills browser - Bundles, categories, detail dialog
  • [commit_10] Cron tasks - Create/edit dialog, schedule presets, improved UI
  • [commit_11] OpenClaw submodule fix - GitHub URL, auto-generated token, WebSocket auth
  • [commit_12] Real API key validation - OpenRouter support, actual API calls to verify keys
  • [commit_13] Remove channel setup step - Simplified onboarding, channels moved to Settings
  • [commit_14] Auto-install skills step - Replace skill selection with auto-installation progress UI
  • [commit_15] Fix Gateway WebSocket handshake - Implement proper OpenClaw protocol

Plan:

  1. Initialize project structure
  2. Add Gateway process management refinements
  3. Implement Setup wizard with actual functionality
  4. Add Provider configuration (API Key management)
  5. Implement Channel connection flows
  6. Add auto-update functionality
  7. Packaging and distribution setup
  8. Chat interface
  9. Skills browser/enable page
  10. Cron tasks management

Summary

All core features have been implemented:

  • Project skeleton with Electron + React + TypeScript
  • Gateway process management with auto-reconnection
  • Setup wizard for first-run experience
  • Provider configuration with secure API key storage
  • Channel connection flows (QR code and token)
  • Auto-update functionality with electron-updater
  • Multi-platform packaging and CI/CD
  • Chat interface with markdown support
  • Skills browser with bundles
  • Cron tasks management for scheduled automation
  • OpenClaw submodule from official GitHub (v2026.2.3) with auto-token auth
  • Real API key validation via actual API calls (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter)
  • Simplified setup wizard (channel connection deferred to Settings page)
  • Auto-install skills step with real-time progress UI (no manual skill selection)
  • Fixed Gateway WebSocket connection with proper OpenClaw handshake protocol
