`openclaw tasks` |
Inspect durable background tasks and Task Flow state. With no subcommand,
openclaw tasks is equivalent to openclaw tasks list.
See Background Tasks for the lifecycle and delivery
model, and its tasks audit section for full finding descriptions.

Root Options
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--json |
Output JSON. |
--runtime <name> |
Filter by kind: subagent, acp, cron, or cli. |
--status <name> |
Filter by status: queued, running, succeeded, failed, timed_out, cancelled, or lost. |
Subcommands
list
openclaw tasks list [--runtime <name>] [--status <name>] [--json]
Lists tracked background tasks newest first.
show
openclaw tasks show <lookup> [--json]
Shows one task by task ID, run ID, or session key.
notify
openclaw tasks notify <lookup> <done_only|state_changes|silent>
Changes the notification policy for a running task.
cancel
openclaw tasks cancel <lookup>
Cancels a running background task.
audit
openclaw tasks audit [--severity <warn|error>] [--code <name>] [--limit <n>] [--json]
Surfaces stale, lost, delivery-failed, or otherwise inconsistent task and
Task Flow records. Lost tasks retained until cleanupAfter are warnings;
expired or unstamped lost tasks are errors.
--code accepts task codes (stale_queued, stale_running, lost,
delivery_failed, missing_cleanup, inconsistent_timestamps) and Task
Flow codes (restore_failed, stale_waiting, stale_blocked,
cancel_stuck, missing_linked_tasks, blocked_task_missing). See
Background Tasks for severity and trigger detail per
code.
maintenance
openclaw tasks maintenance [--apply] [--json]
Previews or applies task and Task Flow reconciliation, cleanup stamping, pruning, and stale cron run session registry cleanup.
For cron tasks, reconciliation uses persisted run logs/job state before
marking an old active task lost, so completed cron runs do not become
false audit errors just because the in-memory Gateway runtime state is gone.
Offline CLI audit is not authoritative for the Gateway's process-local cron
active-job set. CLI tasks with a run id/source id are marked lost when
their live Gateway run context is gone, even if an old child-session row
remains.
When applied, maintenance also prunes cron:<jobId>:run:<uuid> session
registry rows older than 7 days while preserving currently running cron
jobs and leaving non-cron session rows untouched.
flow
openclaw tasks flow list [--status <name>] [--json]
openclaw tasks flow show <lookup> [--json]
openclaw tasks flow cancel <lookup>
Inspects or cancels durable Task Flow state under the task ledger.
flow list --status accepts queued, running, waiting, blocked,
succeeded, failed, cancelled, or lost.
