OpenClaw Dashboard Skill Modal Patch

Use this skill when the OpenClaw dashboard Skills page becomes non-responsive and clicking a skill row fails to open the detail modal.

Trigger symptom

DevTools shows:

InvalidStateError: Failed to execute 'showModal' on 'HTMLDialogElement': The element is not in a Document.

Fix procedure

1. Open the live bundle:

   nano /opt/homebrew/lib/node_modules/openclaw/dist/control-ui/assets/skills-m2TVOQPH.js

1. Search for:

   showModal()

1. Replace:

   ${r(e=>{!(e instanceof HTMLDialogElement)||e.open||e.showModal()})}

with:

   ${r(e=>{if(!(e instanceof HTMLDialogElement)||e.open)return;let t=()=>{if(e.open)return;try{e.showModal()}catch{setTimeout(()=>{try{e.showModal()}catch{}},0)}};e.isConnected?t():setTimeout(t,0)})}

1. Save the file and exit.

1. Hard reload the dashboard:

- Cmd+Shift+R

1. Click a skill row and confirm the modal opens.

Notes

• This is a UI timing bug, not a skills backend failure.
• If the asset filename changes in a future OpenClaw build, apply the same patch to the current skills-*.js bundle referenced by DevTools.
