---
The gateway method surface, grouped into families, plus the session list bootstrap, the common event families, and the node helper and exec lifecycle contracts.

## RPC method families

`hello-ok.features.methods` is a conservative discovery list built from
`src/gateway/server-methods-list.ts` plus loaded plugin/channel method
exports — it is not a generated dump of every method, and some methods (for
example `push.test`, `web.login.start`, `web.login.wait`, `sessions.usage`)
are intentionally excluded from discovery even though they are real, callable
methods. Treat this as feature discovery, not a full enumeration of
`src/gateway/server-methods/*.ts`.

## What each page covers

- [System and channel methods](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/gateway/protocol/rpc-system-and-channels/) — system and identity, models and usage, channels and login helpers, plugin management, messaging and logs, and the operator terminal.
- [Talk, config, and agent methods](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/gateway/protocol/rpc-talk-config-and-agents/) — Talk and TTS, secrets, config, update, and wizard, and agent and workspace helpers.
- [Session control](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/gateway/protocol/rpc-session-control/) — the session control family: listing, sending, streaming, run lifecycle, and session maintenance.
- [Devices, nodes, and approvals](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/gateway/protocol/rpc-devices-nodes-and-approvals/) — device pairing and device tokens, node pairing and invoke, approval families, Control UI commands, and automation, skills, and tools.
- [Session list bootstrap and events](https://funcoding.ai/agents/openclaw/gateway/protocol/rpc-bootstrap-and-events/) — the session list bootstrap, the common event families, and the node helper and exec lifecycle contracts.

## Where each section moved

Every section heading from the previous single-page version keeps its anchor here, so an existing link to this page with a fragment still resolves. Each entry points at the page that now holds the content.
