Direct answer: Integrate ByteRover with OpenClaw by building a skill that explicitly calls ByteRover’s documented REST/GraphQL APIs, registering that skill and its runtime configuration in ClawHub, and managing authentication using a proper OAuth or API-key flow stored in ClawHub’s secret/config area. Keep stateful or long-running work outside the agent (in your own web service or queue), validate webhooks from ByteRover with HMAC or a signature, and use logs, API responses, and token scopes to debug. Below are concrete, actionable steps, security practices, runtime boundaries, debugging techniques, and minimal working code examples you can adapt to ByteRover’s actual API docs and to your ClawHub configuration.

ByteRover fails to register because the ByteRover client and the running claw-agent speak different protocol versions during the initial handshake: the agent expects one wire-format/version and ByteRover sends another. That mismatch can be caused by using mismatched releases, a stale build, or a proxy/transformation changing handshake fields.
Check component versions and logs first. Update ByteRover or claw-agent so both come from compatible releases. Enable verbose/debug logs on both sides and inspect the handshake payload for a version field. Look for build-tag differences, CI image tags, or a proxy/TLS terminator altering headers. If you built ByteRover locally, rebuild against the matching runtime. Restart the agent after deploying the compatible binary.
2
If you get 401 Unauthorized when ByteRover posts to /v1/nodes, the token ByteRover sends is being rejected — wrong header, wrong token value/type, expired, or lacking the required permission. Fix by confirming the exact header and token expected by claw-api, loading that token into ByteRover’s environment, and testing the registration call directly.
curl -i -X POST "https://claw-api.example/v1/nodes" -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLAW_API_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"id":"node1"}'
<b>//</b> replace with your token and host

ByteRover telemetry usually fails to appear because it was never exported to the claw-collector (misconfigured exporter or missing credentials), the collector rejected or dropped the payload (format/auth/labels), or network/firewall issues prevented delivery — check the agent and collector logs and test the HTTP export path.
Steps to diagnose:
curl -v -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLAW_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @metrics.json "$CLAW_COLLECTOR_URL" // test push

Direct answer: A missing "undefined symbol: claw_init" means the ByteRover plugin binary doesn't expose the exact init symbol or was built against a different ABI/plugin version than claw-runtime. The fix is to confirm symbol visibility and exact name, match the runtime headers/toolchain/soname, and rebuild the plugin with the correct linkage and visibility.
nm -D libbyterover.so | grep claw_init or readelf -Ws libbyterover.so | grep claw_init.extern "C" for the init function to avoid C++ name mangling.ldd libbyterover.so to ensure no mismatched libs.extern "C" void claw_init() {
// implement plugin init
}
