# Discord Doctor
Quick diagnosis and repair for Discord/Gateway availability issues, OAuth token problems, and legacy Clawdis configuration conflicts.
## Usage
```bash
# Check status (diagnostic only)
discord-doctor
# Check and auto-fix issues
discord-doctor --fix
```
## What It Checks
1. **Discord App** - Is the Discord desktop app running (optional, for monitoring)
2. **Gateway Process** - Is the Clawdbot gateway daemon running
3. **Gateway HTTP** - Is the gateway responding on port 18789
4. **Discord Connection** - Is the bot actually connected to Discord (via `clawdbot health`)
5. **Anthropic OAuth** - Is your OAuth token valid or expired
6. **Legacy Clawdis** - Detects old launchd services and config directories that cause conflicts
7. **Recent Activity** - Shows recent Discord sessions
## Auto-Fix Capabilities
When run with `--fix`, it can:
- **Start gateway** if not running
- **Install missing npm packages** (like discord.js, strip-ansi)
- **Restart gateway** after fixing dependencies
- **Remove legacy launchd service** (`com.clawdis.gateway.plist`)
- **Backup legacy config** (moves `~/.clawdis` to `~/.clawdis-backup`)
## Common Issues & Fixes
| Issue | Auto-Fix Action |
|-------|-----------------|
| Gateway not running | Starts gateway on port 18789 |
| Missing npm packages | Runs `npm install` + installs specific package |
| Discord disconnected | Restarts gateway to reconnect |
| OAuth token expired | Shows instructions to re-authenticate |
| Legacy launchd service | Removes old `com.clawdis.gateway.plist` |
| Legacy ~/.clawdis config | Moves to `~/.clawdis-backup` |
## OAuth Token Issues
If you see "Access token EXPIRED", run:
```bash
cd ~/Clawdis && npx clawdbot configure
```
Then select "Anthropic OAuth (Claude Pro/Max)" to re-authenticate.
## Legacy Clawdis Migration
If you upgraded from Clawdis to Clawdbot, you may have legacy artifacts causing OAuth token conflicts:
- **Old launchd service**: `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.clawdis.gateway.plist`
- **Old config directory**: `~/.clawdis/`
Run `discord-doctor --fix` to clean these up automatically.

Summary

```
This skill provides quick diagnosis and automated repairs for Discord bot connectivity, gateway availability, OAuth token validity, and legacy Clawdis configuration conflicts. It runs a series of checks and can optionally auto-fix common problems to get your Clawdbot instance back online. The tool is lightweight and intended for local troubleshooting and migration assistance.
The skill runs a checklist: it inspects the Discord desktop app state, verifies the Clawdbot gateway process and its HTTP port (18789), and queries the bot connection via clawdbot health. It validates Anthropic OAuth tokens, reports recent Discord sessions, and detects legacy Clawdis launchd services and config directories. When invoked with --fix, it can start or restart the gateway, install missing npm packages, remove legacy launchd plists, and back up old configuration folders.
Will --fix delete my current Clawdbot configuration?
No. The fixer avoids deleting active Clawdbot config. It moves legacy ~/.clawdis to ~/.clawdis-backup and removes old launchd plists that conflict with Clawdbot.
How do I refresh an expired OAuth token?
Run: cd ~/Clawdis && npx clawdbot configure then choose Anthropic OAuth to re-authenticate. discord-doctor will report token status and prompt this when needed.
