Daemonless / Docker
For containers or environments without systemd/launchd, set the environment variable once:
export DENCHCLAW_DAEMONLESS=1
This skips all gateway daemon management (install/start/stop/restart) and launchd LaunchAgent installation across all commands. You must start the gateway yourself as a foreground process:
openclaw --profile dench gateway --port 19001
Alternatively, pass --skip-daemon-install to individual commands:
npx denchclaw --skip-daemon-install
npx denchclaw update --skip-daemon-install
npx denchclaw start --skip-daemon-install
