Plain first steps you can try before buying anything.
BlueBubbles gone? Move OpenClaw iMessage to `imsg` first.
OpenClaw's docs now say the BlueBubbles channel is no longer the supported iMessage path. The replacement is the bundled `imessage` plugin running `imsg` locally on a Mac with Messages.app signed in, or through an SSH wrapper from another host. Treat this like an integration cutover, not a casual update: install and permission `imsg`, translate config, smoke-test direct and group messages, then retire the old BlueBubbles server only after the new path works.
Gateway token mismatch after repair? Verify before rotating.
A field report says `openclaw doctor --fix gateway` can appear clean while auth/profile state still disagrees with what the gateway expects. That lines up with two confirmed OpenClaw failure classes: gateway connection tokens must match exactly, and older auth-profile drift bugs have overwritten fresh credentials from stale gateway memory. Treat repair as incomplete until the gateway accepts a real smoke test.
Gmail integration keeps disconnecting
If Gmail works once and then stops, the break is usually gateway health, expired credentials, or missing refresh/scope behavior.
