openclaw daemon

Legacy alias for Gateway service management commands. openclaw daemon ... maps to the same service control surface as openclaw gateway ... service commands.

​
Usage

openclaw daemon status
openclaw daemon install
openclaw daemon start
openclaw daemon stop
openclaw daemon restart
openclaw daemon uninstall

​
Subcommands

  • status: show service install state and probe Gateway health
  • install: install service (launchd/systemd/schtasks)
  • uninstall: remove service
  • start: start service
  • stop: stop service
  • restart: restart service

​
Common options

  • status: --url, --token, --password, --timeout, --no-probe, --deep, --json
  • install: --port, --runtime <node|bun>, --token, --force, --json
  • lifecycle (uninstall|start|stop|restart): --json
Notes:
  • status resolves configured auth SecretRefs for probe auth when possible.
  • On Linux systemd installs, status token-drift checks include both Environment= and EnvironmentFile= unit sources.
  • When token auth requires a token and gateway.auth.token is SecretRef-managed, install validates that the SecretRef is resolvable but does not persist the resolved token into service environment metadata.
  • If token auth requires a token and the configured token SecretRef is unresolved, install fails closed.
  • If both gateway.auth.token and gateway.auth.password are configured and gateway.auth.mode is unset, install is blocked until mode is set explicitly.
