Rollbar Skill

Monitor and manage Rollbar errors directly from OpenClaw.

Setup

Set your Rollbar access token as an environment variable:

export ROLLBAR_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-token

⚠️ Security: Store tokens in environment variables or a secure secret manager — never commit them to repository files.

Two token types are supported:

• Project-level token (recommended) — found in Rollbar → Project → Settings → Project Access Tokens. Use a token with read scope for monitoring; add write scope only if you need to resolve/mute items. This is the most restrictive and safest option for single-project use.
• Account-level token (for multi-project setups) — found in Rollbar → Account Settings → Account Access Tokens. Use --project-id <id> to target specific projects. The skill auto-resolves a project read token from the account token. Note: account tokens grant broader access — only use when you need to monitor multiple projects.

Commands

All commands use the helper script rollbar.sh in this skill directory.

List projects (account token only)

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh projects

List recent items (errors/warnings)

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh items [--project-id <id>] [--status active|resolved|muted] [--level critical|error|warning|info] [--limit 20]

Get item details

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh item <item_id>

Get occurrences for an item

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh occurrences <item_id> [--limit 5]

Resolve an item

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh resolve <item_id>

Mute an item

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh mute <item_id>

Activate (reopen) an item

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh activate <item_id>

List deploys

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh deploys [--limit 10]

Get project info

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh project

Top active items (summary)

./skills/rollbar/rollbar.sh top [--limit 10] [--hours 24]

Proactive Monitoring

To get automatic alerts for new critical/error items, set up a cron job in OpenClaw:

"Check Rollbar for new critical or error-level items in the last hour. If any new items appeared, summarize them and alert me."

Recommended schedule: every 30–60 minutes during work hours.

Notes

• All output is JSON for easy parsing.
• The top command sorts active items by occurrence count — useful for daily triage.
