# Critiqor CLI Commands: Full Reference and Workflow

> Complete reference for all Critiqor CLI commands. Use monitor, finalize, dashboard, and runs to observe OpenClaw agents and review diagnosis results.

The Critiqor CLI is the primary interface for attaching runtime observation to OpenClaw agents, generating diagnosis reports, and reviewing reliability results. Commands are grouped around a simple lifecycle: **start observing → interact with your agent → finalize → review**. Each command maps to a specific phase of that workflow, and all run artifacts are stored under a local `runs/` directory by default.

## Commands

| Command                       | Purpose                                                   |
| ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| `critiqor monitor openclaw`   | Launch OpenClaw with runtime observation active           |
| `critiqor finalize`           | Stop observation, generate diagnosis, open dashboard      |
| `critiqor dashboard [run_id]` | Open the local dashboard for the latest or a specific run |
| `critiqor runs`               | List all completed runs with summaries                    |
| `critiqor check`              | Run a deployment policy gate (for CI/CD)                  |

## Basic workflow

```bash theme={null}
critiqor monitor openclaw   # start observing
# ... interact with your agent ...
critiqor finalize           # generate diagnosis + open dashboard
```

Once `critiqor finalize` completes, the local dashboard opens automatically in your browser. You can re-open it at any time with `critiqor dashboard`, and browse all past runs with `critiqor runs`.

<Note>
  If a monitoring session is already active, running `critiqor monitor openclaw` again will exit immediately and prompt you to run `critiqor finalize` first. Only one session can be active at a time.
</Note>
