Summary
OpenGoat v2026.2.23 (Feb 23) is incompatible with OpenClaw v2026.3.13 (Mar 14). The error occurs when OpenGoat tries to call config.get on the OpenClaw gateway, but this RPC method no longer exists in the newer OpenClaw version.
Error
OpenGoat CLI error: OpenClaw gateway config.get did not return valid JSON.
When trying to create agents:
opengoat agent create "Test Agent" --individual --reports-to goat
# Error: Failed to sync OpenClaw role skills for "test-agent"
Root Cause
OpenGoat calls gateway.call("config.get", {}) but OpenClaw v2026.3.13 only supports:
healthstatussystem-presencecron.*
The config.get method was removed or renamed in OpenClaw v2026.3.x.
