The Dev Tools section gives you low-level access to your agent — a shell into the container, real-time logs, and the controls to restart or delete.
Console
Open your agent → Console to get a shell directly into your agent’s container.
--- Agent Console ---
Working directory: /home/node/clawd/workspace
~/clawd/workspace $
This is a full terminal session. You can:
- Run commands in your agent’s environment
- Inspect files and directories
- Debug issues in real-time
- Install packages or run scripts manually
The working directory starts at /home/node/clawd/workspace — the same workspace your agent uses.
Click the expand icon in the top-right for fullscreen mode.
Logs
Open your agent → Logs to see real-time output from OpenClaw.
Filtering
Use the checkboxes to filter by log level:
- TRACE — Most verbose, detailed execution flow
- DEBUG — Debugging information
- INFO — General operational messages
- WARN — Warning conditions
- ERROR — Error conditions
- FATAL — Critical failures
The search box filters log content. Enable AUTO-FOLLOW to automatically scroll to new entries as they appear.
Log Entries
Each entry shows:
- Timestamp — When the event occurred
- Level — Severity (INFO, ERROR, etc.)
- Message — The log content (often JSON)
Click the + button to expand an entry and see the full message.
Exporting
Click EXPORT VISIBLE to download the currently filtered logs. This exports only what matches your current filters — useful for sharing specific issues or keeping records.
Log File
Logs are written to /TMP/OPENCLAW/OPENCLAW-{date}.LOG. A new file is created each day.
Danger
Open your agent → Danger to see agent details and destructive actions.
This page shows your agent’s current state — all read-only except for two actions at the bottom.
