Wakehook: Trigger OpenClaw Morning Automations on Actual Wake Time, Not Cron
Wakehook is a tiny self-hostable service that triggers your OpenClaw morning automations the moment you actually wake up — not at a guessed cron time. Created because the author wanted their morning routine to start from real sleep data, not a fixed schedule.
How It Works
Wakehook reads sleep data from Google Health (Fitbit Air) or Fitbit, determines your wake time, and POSTs a user.awake event to your OpenClaw agent. In OpenClaw, you add a mapped hook pointing to /hooks/wakehook with action "wake" and a textTemplate. The gateway then wakes your session with a nudge like "you woke at 07:03" so your routine runs.
Key Details
- Fires once per morning — deduplicates so re-syncs don't double trigger.
- Poll mode by default — no public URL or tunnel needed.
- Self-hostable — open source on GitHub: github.com/robbeverhelst/wakehook
- Ready-made skill on Clawhub: clawhub.ai/robbeverhelst/wakehook simplifies setup.
Setup
Point Wakehook at your OpenClaw instance with the hook URL. The service will poll your health data provider and fire the event when wake is detected. The included Clawhub skill handles the configuration for you.
