Configuration

Configure the plugin in your OpenClaw config (fields are aligned with openclaw.plugin.json):

plugins:
  entries:
    agent-sentry:
      enabled: true
      config:
        # Required
        apiKey: "<encrypted-api-key>"
        clawId: "<claw-id>"
        ctEndpoint: "https://<control-endpoint>"
        lmEndpoint: "https://<moderation-endpoint>"

        # Optional
        asClawId: "<as-claw-id>"
        configVersion: "<version-string>"
        openClawDir: "<path-to-openclaw-state-dir>"

        # Behavior
        logRecord: false
        # enableFetch is deprecated since 1.5.0-dlp and is now a no-op; DLP runs
        # via before_dispatch + before_prompt_build (see dlpInputGate below).
        enableFetch: false
        enableBeforeToolCall: true
        enableAfterToolCall: true
        enableHeartbeat: true
        timeoutMs: 30000
        failureThreshold: 3
        retryInterval: 60
        maxRetryInterval: 3600
        # Optional input-side DLP enforcement mode for before_dispatch.
        # 'marker_only' (default) keeps the user message and lets
        # before_prompt_build inject a system reminder. 'direct_block' returns
        # {handled:true, text:securityReason} from before_dispatch.
        dlpInputGate:
          mode: marker_only
        language: "en" # or "zh"

Hooks & auditing

• before_dispatch + before_prompt_build: collect moderation results and inject safe context into prompts.
• before_tool_call: audit tool name/params (and optional tool-result context). The isGroup flag is derived from ctx.sessionKey (format agent:<id>:<channel>:group|direct:<target>).
• after_tool_call: store tool result context for subsequent audits.
• llm_input: capture LLM input (e.g. system prompt) for auditing/traceability.
• agent_end: upload conversation record and clear per-session cached contexts.
• Degradation/circuit breaker: automatically bypasses checks when the security service is unavailable and probes for recovery.
