ClawControl Documentation

​

What ClawControl Is

• A Next.js app with a local API layer, SQLite persistence, and a dashboard for work orchestration.
• An Electron desktop wrapper that starts and supervises the same local server.
• A governance-first console with typed confirmations, approval gates, receipts, and activity audit trails.

​

Non-negotiable Operating Model

• ClawControl is loopback-only by default (127.0.0.1 / ::1).
• 0.0.0.0 bind strategy is not supported for ClawControl docs or operations.
• Remote access is tunnel-only (including Tailscale-over-SSH tunnel), never tailscale serve.
• Desktop app releases are currently unsigned; trust/install guidance is mandatory.
• OpenClaw-backed pages use real data only. No fake/demo fallback is used when OpenClaw is unavailable.
