@@ -385,6 +385,15 @@ untrusted until they validate. Invalid direct edits can be restored from the
last-known-good backup during startup or hot reload. See
[Gateway troubleshooting](/gateway/troubleshooting#gateway-restored-last-known-good-config).
Whole-file recovery is reserved for globally broken config, such as parse
errors, root-level schema failures, legacy migration failures, or mixed plugin
and root failures. If validation fails only under `plugins.entries.<id>...`,
OpenClaw keeps the active `openclaw.json` in place and reports the plugin-local
issue instead of restoring `.last-good`. This prevents plugin schema changes or
`minHostVersion` skew from rolling back unrelated user settings such as models,
providers, auth profiles, channels, gateway exposure, tools, memory, browser, or
cron config.
## Subcommands
- `config file`: Print the active config file path (resolved from `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH` or default location). The path should name a regular file, not a symlink.
