Subcommands
list
remoteclaw tasks list [--runtime <name>] [--status <name>] [--json]Lists tracked background tasks newest first.
show
remoteclaw tasks show <lookup> [--json]Shows one task by task ID, run ID, or session key.
notify
remoteclaw tasks notify <lookup> <done_only|state_changes|silent>Changes the notification policy for a running task.
cancel
remoteclaw tasks cancel <lookup>Cancels a running background task.
audit
remoteclaw 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.
maintenance
remoteclaw 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
remoteclaw tasks flow list [--status <name>] [--json]remoteclaw tasks flow show <lookup> [--json]remoteclaw tasks flow cancel <lookup>Inspects or cancels durable Task Flow state under the task ledger.
