- Send push notifications to your phone via Pushover (pushover.net). Use when you want reliable out-of-band alerts from OpenClaw: reminders, monitoring alerts, cron/heartbeat summaries, or 'notify me when X happens' workflows.
Pushover Notify
Send push notifications through the Pushover API using a small Node script.
Setup (one-time)
1) Create a Pushover application token and get your user key:
- App token: https://pushover.net/apps/build
- User key: shown on your Pushover dashboard
2) Provide credentials to the runtime (do not hardcode into this skill):
PUSHOVER_APP_TOKENPUSHOVER_USER_KEY
3) (Optional) set defaults:
PUSHOVER_DEVICE(device name)PUSHOVER_SOUND
Send a notification
Use the bundled script:
PUSHOVER_APP_TOKEN=... PUSHOVER_USER_KEY=... \
node skills/pushover-notify/scripts/pushover_send.js \
--title "OpenClaw" \
--message "Hello from Ted" \
--priority 0Optional fields:
--url "https://..."and--url-title "Open"--sound "pushover"--device "iphone"--priority -1|0|1|2

PUSHOVER_APP_TOKEN=... PUSHOVER_USER_KEY=... \
node skills/pushover-notify/scripts/pushover_send.js \
--title "ALERT" \
--message "Something is on fire" \
--priority 2 --retry 60 --expire 3600Notes
