Error after every command
✅Solved
Every time i issue my OpenClaw a command, it will go through and everything will work correctly, and at the ent itll get an error like:
Exec: cat ~/.openclaw/agents/XXX/agent.yaml failed: cat: /home/XXX/.openclaw/agents/XXX/agent.yaml: No such file or directory
Its not always this error, but every single time my bot does any command i get a similar error.
Exec: cat ~/.openclaw/agents/XXX/agent.yaml failed: cat: /home/XXX/.openclaw/agents/XXX/agent.yaml: No such file or directoryIts not always this error, but every single time my bot does any command i get a similar error.
